Activity 9 Appreciate a sample writing
Part.1 Beginning
Sometimes words cannot describe what we are feeling, but music can. As Hans Christian Andersen once said, “Where words fail, music speaks.” Music is like a special language that everyone can understand.
Have you ever heard a piece of music and
remembered an important time in your life Perhaps when something important happened, or when you felt really happy or sad. I feel this way about a piece of classical music by Eric Satie called“Gymnopedie No.1”. It reminds me of my grandmother. It is like an old friend comforting me when I hear it.
