Model Test 1
Most people hate rock music. While I am not 1 nature an unreasonable or biased person,
two 2 and striking personal experiences of rock music 3
the past two weeks have persuaded me that it has become a duty for those of us with enough common
4 to see its potential dangers to point them out. My first experience - perhaps a
5 one, but highly symptomatic - was the realization that if I spoke to my teenage son when he was listening to rock music through headphones, he replied in an
6 loud voice, as if there was something wrong with his 7
. The second occurred when I went with him to a "concert" and witnessed for
8 what these affairs are like.
Till I went to that concert, my first and assuredly my last, I had always
9 the "live-and-let-live" attitude that rock music was simply not my
10 but that other people had every right to en joy it if it was
11 . But what I saw and heard convinced m e that we are allowing something very powerful to take
12 of the younger generation. In the first place, I noticed 13
collective madness, brought about by the noise 14 . But secondly, and far more dangerously, I observed that after a time everyone was carried
15 by the noise, and gave up his/her individuality. 16
the end I was in the middle of a faceless 17 who clapped and stamped and jumped around like monkeys. It was the most degrading human spectacle I have ever had
the 18 to witness, and I seriously believe that 19
our present younger generation would thank us if we managed to put 20
to it now.
