92 (6) Music plays an important role in my life. As a mle I choose the piece of music according to my mood. And while I’m listening to my favourite melodies, my mood changes. Music arises positive emotions. For me music is the main source of inspiration. Music accompanies me in my everyday life.

It’s hard for me to imagine my life without music. It fills my inner world with harmony. Music helps me to overcome the sad moments of my life. When I hear my favourite song, I feel myself much better. If I get bored, I immediately turn on the CD-player. Light tunes serve as a cool soundtrack when I study or just walk. And yet they allow me to relax and dream, to think about something good.

Sometimes, when I want to stay alone, music helps me think about my problems. Thanks to it I can find answers to important questions.

For me, music is an essential part of my life. And the one who said that it is eternal was completely right.

104 (2) Last weekend I watched Tina Karol’s concert on TV. The music was fantastic, the singing was brilliant, the guitar solo was quite good, the drums were really loud. The lighting was superb and the special effects were breathtaking. The stage design was spectacular, the sound was clear, the songs were charming and the words were marvellous. The costumes were colourful, original and fashionable.

104 (3) 1 D; 2 В; 3 A; 4 C.

105 (4) 1. The reviewer liked the concert a lot, because he wrote that the evening highly enjoyable, with great music and a tremendous amount of fun. 2.

106 (9) Last week, my friends and I visited a big rock concert of the legendary Ukrainian band — VV. The atmosphere in the concert hall was incredible, the audience was filled with positive emotions. People were singing together with the vocalist. All people present at the concert were devoted fans of the band. Sometimes it’s unpleasant for me to hear some negative things about these musicians. But I could hear it only from those who visited their concert only once. But not all performances are successful, sometimes it can happen because of the poor sound or disappointing lighting. You can make a full impression about a band only having visited several their concerts.

There are musicians who leave the stage after many years of popularity. In my opinion, this happens because of the fact that they cease to be sincere in their songs. And the public really feels it.
