This graduation paper is a suggested translation of chapter 1 (P13- P24) named: “ What Is Music?” of the book: This is Your Brain on Music: The Science of a Human Obsession by Daniel J. Levitin . Besides, I also analyze some necessary issues such as vocabulary and structure in this paper. In addition, through this graduation paper, I myself find out some difficulties that students feel confused in translation and put forward some effective solutions.
