Music is heard everywhere

Why do we listen to music?
It relaxes us
It helps making a good mood
It enreaches a person
It makes us think of happy days

Read the text. Write down the reasons why music is an essential part of our
life. Put the reasons according to their importance.
Music goes along with many of our activities. We
dance to music. We sing song? at school. Many of us
exercise to music. Bands play at football games. We
hear music in cars and stores. Music has always been
important to religious ceremonies. Music is heard in
Christian churches, Jewish synagogues, Islamic
mosques (мечеть), and other places of worship.
Music entertains us. We listen to show tunes,
spirituals, pop, opera, and rock. We have favourite
performers. We hear music as the background in
movies. Perhaps we go to the theatre to see a musical
— a movie or play with music, singing, and often with
dancing. Music is a part of our lives.
