Some people say that music is a good way of bringing people of different cultures and ages together.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
There is an argument that music can gather people of different cultures and ages together. Personally, I agree with the idea because of several advantageous aspects of music.
First of all, great music contains a universal sentiment and melody with thought-provoking lyrics. By listening to it, people can be empathetic even if they are from different cultures and nations. For instance, the lyric of Love of My Life, written by the legendary rock band, Queen, delivers how the singer feels about the relationship with his lover. It had resonated with a significant number of people around the globe for decades as most people in the world had a similar experience and can understand a feeling of love. This example clearly depicts that music with universal sentiment can resonate with people of various cultural background.
In addition, well-composed music enables people in different age groups to gather together because it can help to decrease generation gap, resulting in a harmony between the elderly and youth. For example, there is a popular TV show program named The Masked Singer, a singing contest with masked singers from diverse fields and generations. Due to the singer's intriguing masked appearance, people have their own assumption on who is the masked singer while watching the show regardless of their age. After discovering the singer's true identity, younger generation can find a great singer in their parent's ages. Meanwhile, the older ones can learn today's popular singers, which helps them catch the latest fashion and have them a communication channel to their children.
In short, it is apparent that there are various ideas on the function of music. However, I firmly believe that music has an enormous positive strength to make people from different cultures and ages bring together.
안녕하세요! 설 명절 연휴 잘 보내셨나요!
이번에도 도움을 요청하고자 글을 작성하게 되었습니다ㅠㅠ
제 현재 상황에 대해서 먼저 간략히 말씀드릴게요!
1. 목표점수 : 라이팅 6.5/오버롤 7.0
2. 다음 시험 예정 날짜 : 2월 8일
3. 이전 시험 점수 : 라이팅 6.0
4. 시간을 따로 측정하진 않았지만 대략 50분-1시간 정도 소요된 것 같고 외부 도움은 없었습니다.
5. 현재 라이팅에서 0.5점만 더 올리면 되는 상황입니다.
지금은 Jen 선생님 온라인 강의만 들으면서 혼자 하루에 1-2개씩 써보는 게 전부인데 어떻게 하면 목표점수에 도달할 수 있을지 궁금합니다ㅠㅠ
바쁜 시간 내어주셔서 항상 감사히 생각하고 있어요.
오늘도 좋은 하루 보내세요!
