问题     It is possible to learn something about music through brief contact with it, but without the benefit of formal instruction. People can learn a few songs, listen 【S1】______ to music on the radio, and become familiar with one or two types of music.

If an average American were to move to China, that person would find Chinese music difficult to understand and 【S7】______ . If he or she were going to live there more or less permanently, then some knowledge of Chinese music would be very 【S8】______ in order for the American to feel less like an outsider in Chinese life. Without an understanding of Chinese music, the 【S9】______ from the United States would find living in China a little duller, shallower, and less satisfying. The quality of life for the person would be 【S10】______ .
