Each person has his own way to have fun. Some like sports. Some like playing chess or cards. But a large number of people enjoy listening to music.

Nowadays, music has become an important part of our life. We can listen to music on CDs, on radio or on TV. Also, we can search the Internet to find the song we like. It’s the easiest way to enjoy the music that we like. Also we can download (下载)our favorite songs from the Internet for free. If we have a Walkman (随身听),we can hear music everywhere. It can give us pleasure if we are sad. It can cheer us up, too. When we are tired, it can make us relaxed.

Different people like different kinds of music. Young people like pop music. Maybe old people like gentle and quiet music. Different music can express different feelings. When we are happy, we like to listen to jubilant (欢快的) music. When we are unhappy, we want to hear soft music. We need different kinds of music in different moods. We can get different feelings from music. Music is the best friend of human beings. We can’t imagine what life would be like without music.根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。

Hello, everyone! I’m Helen. We know students often feel tired(疲惫) because we have too much homework to do and we have to take lots of tests(测验). So we should think of ways to relax ourselves.

I learn some ways from the Daily Mind. They are watching TV, playing computer games and doing sports. I think doing sports keeps us healthy(健康). But watching TV or playing computer games too much is bad for our eyes. It can make us short-sighted. So they are not good ways to help us relax. As for me, I often play Ping-Pong after class and listen to music before I go to bed. Besides, I often chat(聊天) with my friends.

I find the ways really helpful to both my health and my study. So I hope they can help you.

That’s all. Thanks.
