雅思口语｜ Part3主题:Music

1 an increasingly wide variety of music 越来越多种类的音乐

Well thinking about it, I'd say that there's an increasingly wide variety of music which is popular nowadays in China, such as pop music of course, as well as rock, R&B, and traditional Chinese folk music.  说到这个，我想说在中国，越来越多种类的音乐都变得很流行了。像是流行音乐，这个肯定有了。还有摇滚，蓝调，和传统中国民间音乐。

2 the majority of the music stored on it 存在里面的大部分音乐

But out of all of these, I'd say that pop music is, by far, the most popular at the moment, and I'm sure if you looked on anyone's mp3 player or mobile phone here, you would find that the majority of the music stored on it, if not all of it, was pop music--at least that's the case with my friends anyway. 所有音乐种类里面，我觉得流行音乐目前是最受欢迎的。我很确定要是你看任何人的mp3或者手机，你会发现即使不是全部，那也是大部分的音乐是流行音乐。至少我的朋友就是这种。

3 be able to do inherently 天生就会的

I wouldn't say it's all that necessary to learn how to sing songs, simply because it's something that we are all able to do inherently, regardless of whether or not we've been taught.  我觉得学唱歌不是很必要，因为我们天生都会，而且不管学不学都会的。

4 help children become aware of culture 帮助小孩意识到文化

Well, I don't think I would go so far as saying it's absolutely necessary to enjoy traditional Chinese music, but it's certainly a good thing to do, because it's one way of helping children become more aware of their culture.  我并不觉得有绝对的必要让孩子欣赏中国传统音乐，虽然欣赏传统中国音乐当然是件好事。因为毕竟可以意识到中国文化。

5 develop an interest in this aspect of one's culture 发展对这方面文化的兴趣

So for example, if parents occasionally put on some traditional music at home, it gives children the chance to develop an interest in this aspect of their culture, even though they might not be able to fully appreciate it.  所以打比方父母偶尔在家放个传统音乐，孩子就可以发展这方面文化的兴趣，尽管不能完全欣赏。
