Ⅰ.阅读理解

I like music. I think maybe most people like it as much as I do. I believe other people would have the same feeling towards music. For me, music can always make me feel happy and relaxed. Sometimes when I feel very depressed, or suffer setbacks, music can do its magic which helps me through unpleasant mood. Music makes me feel quiet and peaceful. Furthermore, it has the power to revive my spirit. So I can imagine if there's no music in the world, how boring and colourless our world might be.

There are so many different styles of music, such as pop, classical, rock, heavy metal and so on. Maybe everyone has the different taste and likes the different style. Even though music gives us different effects in different conditions，one thing can be ensured for us that music can help us release the pressure when we feel nervous or reduce pressures on our shoulders. And it can depurate (净化) our heart. When we feel happy, we can listen to some music which makes us happier; if we feel sad and frustrated, we can choose the music which gives us power and makes us refreshed. If we are introverted people, we can listen to the music which makes us more outgoing.

Above all, I've stated so many effects of music. We have so many beautiful melodies in the world which could make our life more and more pleasant. So I think we should thank the people who create music, who use rhythms to express various feelings and things as we use articles and languages to express our thinking. So nice! They create the great music, while music makes our world even better. I love music forever!
