Task1- Describe your least liked music. Please explain the reason.
Sampleresponse:
Well,I believe all types of music are enjoyable, however, I would mention Hip Pop tobe the lowest of my ranking. For me, a graceful piece of music should containeither the beautiful lyrics or the sounding rhythms. But the first time Ilistened to Hip Pop in a mini concert, I felt like being abandoned on a noisyisland. I barely heard anything clear but dozens of words floating in the air.I could not concentrate on the lyrics to understand the songwriter’s thoughts,not to mention having any responsive chord deep in my heart. Though Hip Pop haskind of magic power to make everyone move, it is still hard to touch me in mostof the cases.
