Almost everyone shares the same daily routine:beginning the day by reading the newspaper,then going off to work and then returning home tired and ready for bed.
Younger people in school or college may have a different routine from adults, but their lives are pretty similar.Most people, young or old, cannot find the time or energy to relax and enjoy the day.Luckily, music is here to help us forget our worries and feel peaceful.
Besides being pleasant to the ear, music can help us relax.Music is also good because it can teach us something about different languages and cultures all around the world.Everyone likes music and every country has a history of music to be proud of.From birth to death we have music along with us.
Music, like all forms of arts, is another way to add peace to our lives.Modern studies show that relaxing with music can do good to our bodies in some way as hard exercise does.
Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician, said that some kinds of music could change behaviour patterns.Listening to the sounds of music can make us relax ourselves.
Music can help people communicate and express their feelings.Every day people enjoy songs on the radio because the songs reflect(反映) their feelings inside.Lovers need love songs for each other.
As much as music expresses feelings,it can also change feelings.A sad day can be made happy with the help of music.Sometimes when we feel angry we need music to make us feel better.Music can also help people remember something.School children are taught to sing songs about colours,animals and letters to help them memorize new words and concepts.
