Yes, I’ve been a big fan of music for many years. I sometimes listen to music for about one hour before sleeping at night and also when I am driving. I am very fond of pop music from Taiwan and Hong Kong and I also frequently listen to some American pop singers like the Backstreet Boys. I can feel their energy when I listen to their music.

是的，我多年来一直是个音乐迷。我有时会在晚上睡觉前和开车时听一小时左右的音乐。我非常喜欢台湾和香港的流行音乐，我也经常听一些美国流行歌手，比如后街男孩。当我听他们的音乐时，我能感觉到他们的能量。

Personally, I am interested in traditional instrumental music, like the erhu, mixed with pianos and guitars.

就我个人而言，我对传统的器乐很感兴趣，比如二胡，混合着钢琴和吉他。

I always have time to listen to music during the weekends. It is an impressive combination that is both nostalgic and modern at the same time. I first encountered this type of music when I was driving and listening to the radio about five years ago, I forget the name, but the tune sounded really amazing.

我总是有时间在周末听音乐。这是一个令人印象深刻的组合，既怀旧又现代。我第一次接触这种音乐是在大约五年前，我开车和听收音机的时候，我忘记了它的名字，但是这首曲子听起来真的很美妙。

Oh, yes, I saw a pop singer perform several years ago. It was a really memorable night as the live performances were very exciting. I remembered that after the song, when the singer spoke to the audience, everyone cheered and clapped like crazy. It made me feel so cool being there.

哦，是的，我几年前看过一位流行歌手的表演。那是一个非常难忘的夜晚，现场表演非常精彩。我记得那首歌之后，当歌手对观众讲话时，每个人都疯狂地欢呼鼓掌。这让我觉得在那里很酷。

Unfortunately, I did not learn to play any type of musical instrument when I was a little boy. I remember that in schools, teachers always told us to put all our energy into studying and preparing for exams. The music lessons, along with physical exercises and paintings, were not so important as the schools claimed them to be. It was a disappointment for me when I grew up.

不幸的是，当我还是个小男孩的时候，我没有学习任何一种乐器。我记得在学校，老师总是告诉我们要把所有的精力放在学习和准备考试上。音乐课、体育锻炼和绘画并不像学校宣称的那么重要。当我长大后，这对我来说是一个失望。

I don’t get enough time to listen to music because I have to spend all my time studying. This was one of my biggest disappointments during my childhood, so when I got to university the first thing I did was to buy a new mp3 player.

我没有足够的时间听音乐，因为我不得不把所有的时间花在学习上。这是我童年时最大的失望之一，所以当我上大学的时候，我做的第一件事就是*了一个新的mp3播放器。

I believe that currently in China the most popular music is pop music. There are many famous pop singers now, they are releasing numerous albums every year, and they are always trendy for a short period of time.

我认为目前中国最流行的音乐是流行音乐。现在有很多著名的流行歌手，他们每年发行很多专辑，他们总是在短时间内流行。
