Can you think of a day without music?We hear music everywhere: in the streets and at home, over the radio and on TV, in the shops and in the parks. People all over the world are fond of music.They listen to music, they dance to music, they learn to play musical instruments.There are a lot of different kinds of music.Some of them appeared long ago, some are quite modern.For example, classical music is often associated with the music of the past and rap is considered to be a modern music style.Tastes differ.That's why people's musical interests range from pop and rock music, which are extremely popular among young people nowadays, to classical music and opera.Like most of the teenagers, I can't imagine my life without music.My favourite style of music is pop music, because it is breathtaking and full of energy.Music helps everyone. Even patients. Mentally retarded children, the disabled, people in the doldrums, and others, listening to music becomes more balanced.When I listen to pop music, it makes me remember happy times and forget the problems of everyday life.It helps me to relax when I'm tired and entertains me when I'd like to have fun.My favourite group is «Backstreet Boys» or «BSB» for short.It was formed in Orlando, Florida, in 1993.There are five members in this band.«BSB» have released 7 studio albums.I find their music fascinating and always listen to their records when I have free time.Thanks to my new MP3 player, I can enjoy listening to my favourite music not only at home but also on my way to and from school.The music I hate is heavy metalI find it too noisy and dreadful.When I hear this style of music it presents pictures of dark days to my mind.Though some young people are fond of this style of music, it isn't to everyone's taste.Personally for me music is a source of inspiration.

My favourite book
My favourite book is "Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe. D. Defoe (1660—1731) was a great master of realistic detail. The novel "Robinson Crusoe" was written in 1719. The novel is praise to human labour and the triumph of man over nature.
Defoe shows the development of his hero. At the beginning of the story we see an inexperienced youth, a rather frivolous boy, who then becomes a strong-willed man.
Robinson Crusoe's most characteristic trait is his optimism. His guiding principle in life become "never say die" and "in trouble to be troubled is to have your troubles doubled".
He had confidence in himself and in man. He believed it was within the power of man to overcome all difficulties. Crusoe was an enthusiastic worker and always hoped for the best.
Defoe is a writer of the Enlightenment. He teaches people how to live, he tries to teach what's good and what's bad. His novel "Robinson Crusoe" is not only a work of fiction, an account of adventures, a biography and an educational pamphlet.
It is a study of man, a great work showing man in relation to nature and civilization as well as in relation to labour and private property.
My favourite writer
My favourite writer Arthur Conan Doyle.
I love reading English classical literature. But I am especially fond of English detective and adventure stories. I like Agatha Christie's books but my favourite author is Arthur Conan Doyle. I like him because his fiction is very realistic and helps to develop one's thinking and knowledge.

Today the fashion goes on with the stories of other writers.Conan Doyle created his famous character, Sherlock Holmes, in 1885.

Sherlock Holmes first appeared in a book called «Study in Scarlet» (Этюд в багровых тонах). «The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes» made him famous all over the world.Conan Doyle was a famous writer.

Mass Media
Mass media (that is, the press, the radio and television) play an important role in the life of society. They inform, educate and entertain people. They also influence the way people look at the world and make them change their views. Mass media mould public opinion. Millions of people in their spare time watch TV and read newspapers.
Everybody can find there something interesting for him. On the radio one can hear music, plays, news and various discussions or commentaries of current events. Multiple radio or TV games and films attract a large audience. Newspapers are used in different ways, but basically they are read.
There is a lot of advertisment on mass media. Some of the TV and radio stations and newspapers are owned by different corporations. The owners can advertise whatever they choose.
But it is hardly fair to say that mass media do not try to raise cultural level of the people or to develop their artistic taste. Mass media brings to millions of homes not only entertaiment and news but also cultural and educational programs.
There are more then six TV channels and lot's of radio stations and newspapers now
The Mass media in Ukraine
The mass media play an important role in our life. They inform us about different events that take place in our country and in the world. They also entertain us and help us to change our life for the better. The mass media give us different kinds of information: news, weather forecast, horoscopes, review of books, etc. We can not imagine our life without the mass media today because information is very important in the modern society.
TV and radio programmes, and newspapers that give reliable information about important events. They are always popular. Many magazines and newspapers also contain information about unusual events, amazing facts, funny stories, sensations. Many people like this kind of information as well. A lot of newspapers and journals are usually well illustrated. They try to choose interesting photos and pictures for their articles.
As for me, I like to read newspapers and watch TV programmes that pay attention to the most important problems of the society. Among such problems may be problems in health care, education or corruption. But I do not like to watch and read an advertisement. I think there is too much advertising in the mass media. Though some of the firms advertise their goods in a funny way and their advertising may entertain.
I am sure, the mass media are an important source of information in a modern world.
