It is something far less happy, as you are called in by your leader to explain why you did this and did that or why you did not do this or that.At some time or another, every one of us has to face the music, especially as children. We can all remember fathers angry words “I want to talk to you.” And only because we did not listen to him. What a bad thing it was!In the middle or at the end of every term, we students have to “face the music”. The result of the exam will decide whether we will face the music or not. If you got a D in the exam, that means parents cold faces and the contempt(輕視) of the classmates.“To face the music is well-known to every American, young or old. It is at least 100 years old. It really means that you have to do something, no matter how terrible the whole thing might be, because you have no choice.（1）“To face the music means to .A . do something that we dont like toB . go to the theatreC . go to the music showD . do something we want to（2）After the exam, well have to “face the music”.
