Music in my life
I love music. I cannot imagine my life without it. There are days when I can listen to music for hours and I never get bored with it.
I enjoy listening to music. All I need is my smartphone and reliable earbuds. I usually download albums, create playlists and then make sure my phone is fully charged. Then I can walk or take a bus to school while listening to my favourite performers without disturbing people around me.
I like different kinds of music. Usually my choice depends on my mood. Sometimes I listen to classical music (Mozart, Vivaldi, Beethoven, Chopin are my favourite composers) and then there are days when I listen to R&B or New Age or rock music. My friends like rap and hip-hop, so if we meet together we listen to this type of music.
It would have been great to be able to play some musical instrument, but unfortunately I have not learnt to play any. However, I want to try and perhaps one day I will be able to play my favourite pieces.
Перевод
Я люблю музыку. Я не могу представить свою жизнь без нее. Есть дни, когда я могу слушать музыку в течение нескольких часов, и мне никогда это не надоедает.
Мне нравится слушать музыку. Все, что мне нужно - это мой смартфон и надежные наушники. Обычно я загружаю альбомы, создаю плейлисты, а затем проверяю, чтобы мой телефон был полностью заряжен. Тогда я могу гулять или ехать на автобусе в школу, слушая своих любимых исполнителей, не беспокоя окружающих.
Я люблю разную музыку. Обычно мой выбор зависит от настроения. Иногда я слушаю классическую музыку (Моцарт, Вивальди, Бетховен, Шопен - мои любимые композиторы), а есть дни, когда я слушаю R&B или нью-эйдж, или рок-музыку. Мои друзья любят рэп и хип-хоп, поэтому, если мы встречаемся вместе, мы слушаем эту музыку.
Было бы здорово уметь играть на каком-нибудь музыкальном инструменте, но, к сожалению, я не научился играть ни на чем. Тем не менее, я хочу попробовать, и, возможно, однажды я смогу сыграть свои любимые произведения.
