In every culture, people use music to express themselves, tell stories, and make beautiful sounds.
10
This is an important element in every culture, and there are different musical traditions in different regions and countries.

Music can also be very emotional.
19
Sometimes when you're listening, you start to feel happy or you can get really sad.

22
The word The word genre means type.
23
When we talk about music or movies, we use the word genre.
24
Some popular genres of music include rock, jazz, country, classical, and hip-hop.
25
Of course, there are many others too.
26
When I was young, I listened to a lot of rock music.

I always heard this music when I was young.
31
When I was a teenager, I started listening to hip hop music because that's what was popular.

If you turn on the radio, you hear hip-hop music on many stations.

Nowadays, I don't like this type of music.
35
In particular, I don't like the lyrics.
36
To be honest, I don't listen to a lot of music nowadays.
37
But I do enjoy listening to music once in a while.
38
For example, I sometimes listen to country folk music.
39
I really like this genre, especially because of the instruments.
40
I like country style instruments like the banjo, the harmonica, and the fiddle.
41
Also, I like listening to and singing classic hymns at church or at home.
42
Another type of music that's interesting for me is regional music.
43
It's interesting to listen to music that's connected to one region.
44
For example, I like listening to fado music, which is from Portugal, and I like flamenco music, which is from the south of Spain.
45
It's really cool to hear musical styles from different regions around the world.

53
It's good for your brain, and it's a good skill to have.

For adults, it can be hard to learn an instrument, but it's possible.
55
Right now, my wife is learning to play the violin.
56
This is her first time playing an instrument.
57
It's hard for her, but she's learning and improving.
58
So if you're an adult and you want to learn an instrument, you should do it.
59
Lastly, let's talk about singing.
60
Everyone can sing, but most people aren't really good singers.
61
For example, I have a terrible singing voice.

I don't sound good when I sing, but I don't care.
63
I still sing.
64
Other people have good singing voices and it sounds beautiful when they sing.
65
I like listening to good singers.
66
Also, some people take singing lessons to improve their singing.

This can help you improve your voice and your skills.

Maybe I should take singing lessons.

Об этом уроке

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
