“ Jonny , this is the second time I’ve told you to turn your music down ! ”
That’s my mom . She is ALWAYS nagging me to turn my music down . I somehow have to convince her my loud music should be able to be as loud as I like it .
Every time I blasted my music , she would come in and tell me to turn it down . For the first few times , I would sadly drag myself over to the stereo（音响）and turn it down , and then apologize . Then , I realized I had to be tough or I wouldn’t be able to stand up to people for my entire life .

“ It seems like you are becoming deaf . The less you can hear it , the more you turn it up . Is that right ? ”
