1 Cloze test.
To me, music is food and water. Life without music would not be 1. I realise that this is not true for everybody in the world. It is because a lot of people 2 quite well without going to the concert (音乐会) and listening to the record. But music plays a(n) 3 part in everyone’s life, whether he or she realises it or not. Try to 4, for example, what films or TV plays would be like without music.
Would the feelings and the moving plots be so exciting or dramatic (戏剧性的)? I’m not sure about that. Now, we always speak of music in its more common 5—the kind of music we hear in the concert hall. But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we will 6 them in our daily life too—in the rhythm (旋律) of the sea, the melody (曲调) of a bird in the woods and so on. So music 7 has meaning for everyone, in some way or other.
And, of course, it has special meaning for those who have spent all their 8 working on playing or writing music. Through music a child enters into a 9 of beauty, expresses himself from his heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body 10.
