Music is one of the most     1    (power) things in my life. Listening to music can help to motivate me to enjoy my life. When younger, I     2    (have) great love for music as I do now. I mainly listened to     3     my parents were listening to. Whether I was in the car, the house,     4     anywhere else there was sure to be some music of Beatles, or Buddy Holly constantly playing in the background. Now as I'm older, I enjoy it for the reason that it allows me to remember my childhood.

I believe music has the power     5    (convey) all sorts of emotions. The song A Little Bit Longer by the Jonas Brothers is such     6     emotional and inspiring song that when I hear it, I always come close to     7    (cry), especially when I watch it being played live. The effect that music can have on our emotions is tremendous, as it can bring people to floods of       8    (tear) or bursts of laughter.

I believe music affects people in many ways. To me, music is    9    (extreme) important in my life. I think    10     brings me closer to my friends and family.
