4 Work in pairs. Ask and answer the questions.

1 When do you listen to music?2 Do you listen to music when you are doing your

homework?3 Does it help you learn?

How important is music in your life? When and why do you listen to music? For thousands of years people in every country have listened to music for pleasure. But now we know that it is good for our brains and bodies too. Music is relaxing and it helps people get better when they are ill. In some hospitals there is music so people feel happier. Some dentists play soft music to relax their patients so they don’t move. But it doesn’t always help! Music can also help us learn. Many children learn better when there is music playing than when there isn’t any music at all. But only soft classical or pop music will help. Loud rap and rock music aren’t any good at all.

Music is good for you!

Listening to your favourite song will help you exercise longer and harder. But make sure you choose something fast. If not, you’ll fall asleep! Music helps with the housework too. Play a fast rock or reggae song and you will tidy your room in no time!Cows are great music fans. They give more milk when music is playing. But they are old-fashioned and they prefer classical music to modern styles. Beethoven is a great favourite.Our pets also have their favourite types of music. Most dogs and cats like harp music best because it is relaxing. Some people leave music on for their pets when they go out, so they don’t feel alone. Soft music is fine, but don’t play anything loud and fast. They’ll just go crazy. An American company has recorded a CD of music especially for pets! So now there’s something for everyone!

7 Do you think your partner is crazy about music? Tell the class.

My favourite singer is Justin Timberlake. He’s from

Memphis in the USA. He is a talented pop singer

and he is also really good-looking! He’s a true

musician because he can play the piano and the

guitar and he writes his own songs. I have loved Justin since he was a singer in the band

*NSYNC. I was only eight years old then! He

became a solo singer in 2002. His first solo CD was

Justified and it was a fantastic success. My favourite

song is Cry Me a River. It was a big hit in 2002 and

I still listen to it. He wrote it for an old girlfriend.

I’ve never been to a Justin concert, but my cousin

has. She went to one last summer and she got his

autograph on a photograph. And now it’s mine!

She gave it to me for my birthday. It’s the best

present I’ve ever had! I’ve got a lot of posters of

Justin in my room and I’ve bought all his CDs.

Everyone I know loves Justin Timberlake, even my

dad is a fan!

Emerton Youth Brass BandMy name is Emily and I play the tuba in the Emerton Youth Brass Band. It’s a traditional British brass band with 28 musicians. I’ve been a member of the band since I was eight years old. The band practises once a week and we often take part in competitions. Last year we came fifth in the National Youth Championships. Everyone loves being in the band because the music is joyful and the competitions are fun.

My name is Ted and I play the trombone in the band. In Emerton, like many other towns in Britain, brass bands are a tradition. The first brass band started here in the 1880s. It is also a tradition in my family to play in brass bands. Both my father and grandfather played the cornet in the band. In my grandfather’s day, there weren’t any girls in the band, but today there are boys and girls.
