Music音乐 · “I like music.”

SAMPLE ANSWER

“Honestly, I usually go for happy, upbeat songs in my daily life. They put me in a better mood pretty quickly, especially when I'm on my way to school or work. I still listen to sad songs once in a while, though, because they can help me let out my feelings.”

SAMPLE ANSWER

“Yeah, definitely. A song with an upbeat rhythm can really give me more energy. If I play it before a workout or before something important, it helps me feel more awake. I guess the fast beat just makes me feel ready to move instead of sitting around feeling nervous.”

SAMPLE ANSWER

“Yes, I did. I took piano lessons for a few years in primary school. It was actually my parents' idea, and honestly, I wasn't particularly talented. Still, I enjoyed learning a few simple pieces, and I sometimes played them for my family. I haven't practised in ages, though, so I've probably forgotten most of them.”

SAMPLE ANSWER

“All the time, yeah. I usually have music playing in the background when I'm doing household chores or cooking, because it makes the time go faster. I also listen on the way to work. For commuting, though, I usually go for something calm, so I can pay attention to what's happening around me.”
