Musik im Zeitalter des Internets: Goethe B1 Schreiben Example
Music and the internet is one of those topics that keeps coming back in the Goethe B1 Schreiben Teil 2 exam, and for good reason: it touches on everyday habits, personal opinions, and a bit of give-and-take that examiners love to test. In this task, you’re asked to react to someone else’s viewpoint, which means you need more than vocabulary — you need the right structure to agree, disagree, or add your own perspective smoothly.
That’s exactly why working through real, recurring exam themes pays off. The topics don’t change much from year to year, but your ability to respond naturally and confidently does, the more you practice with authentic material.
Below, you’ll find this specific theme laid out with a complete model answer, so you can see exactly what a strong response looks like in context.
Here’s the exam task itself, followed by a model answer you can study and learn from.
The Task (Teil 2): In the real exam, you read a short forum-style opinion from Markus and must react to it in writing — agreeing, disagreeing, or nuancing your view, with reasons.
Model Answer (reacting, agreeing with Markus):
Es wird viel über „Musik im Zeitalter des Internets” diskutiert, aber jede Medaille hat zwei Seiten. Ich vertrete denselben Standpunkt wie Markus, denn früher war es schwierig und teuer, Musik zu hören, aber dank des Internets kann heute jeder überall Musik hören und herunterladen. Man kann auch mit Freunden seine Lieblingssänger teilen. Allerdings hat das Internet auch den Gewinn der Sänger verringert, und es gibt heute mehr Musik von schlechterer Qualität. Trotzdem ist die Mehrheit der Jugendlichen zufrieden, weil es kostenlos ist.
