They are language and music. Music is clearly different from language. However, people can use it to communicate- especially their emotions. Like reading, writing and speaking, music can express ideas, thoughts and feelings. It can express one’s anger, love, hate or friendship; it can also convey one’s hopes and dreams.	Music is very much an integral part of our life. It played during almost all important events and on occasions and sets the tone for them. It adds joyfulness to the atmosphere of a festival and makes a funeral more solemn and mournful. Music lull babies to sleep at night and wakes students up in the morning.	Above all, music entertains. It makes people happy and excited. It delights the senses. In fact, music as entertainment has always been a big business. It is a billion-dollar industry. It is difficult to imagine what our lives would be like without music.While you readRead the passage again(4 minutes)and do the activityRead the passage again and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F)While you readMusic is clearly different from language.Music as entertainment hasn’t always been a big business.Music isn’t an integral part of our lives.TFFWork in groups and answer the questions in the textbook on page126.While you read(3 minutes)	1.
