In groups design a questionnaire to survey people about their likes and dislikes in music. Write a report telling about your findings.A report on musicWe conducted a survey on music. We find that over 70% of our students like pop music. Over 10% like rock and roll. One thing worth mentioning is that Chinese traditional music is being a new trend among the students. One group has bee one of their favorite-12 Girls Band. Dressed identically in black sleeveless suits and high heels, the 12 females on stage appeared modern and fashionable. However, they werent models, but traditional Chinese musicians. Passionate and rhythmic, the audience came to realize that these traditional instruments could also be used for hip-hop and rock.The 12 Girls also put a Chinese twist to the jazz classics Five Beats and Seven Beats, gave a unique twist to Beethovens Fate, and performed a Chinese folk song with a single string fiddle. The bination of spirited music, flawless performance, creative adaptation and feminine glamour have not only appealed to Chinese audiences but also won the band numerous fans overseas.2. Do a survey about jeans and fashion in China. We conducted a survey and the results are amazing. All the classmates like wearing jeans and we each have 3 jeans on the average. Although we should wear our school uniform on weekdays, we still desire to wear them. We prefer all styles of jeans: tight fitting, loose fitting, coloured, decorated with holes, paint or flowers, long or very short pants. Even our parents like wearing them. Of course, the casual trousers from Korea and Japan are also popular with we Chinese youth, because they are fortable to wear and make us look so different from others! What has caused this? We think the reason may be in that we all enjoy the feeling of freedom and want to keep up with the trend of the world.
