I like to listen to music on the road.

Some people like listening to music when they are going from one place to another, while other people are not fond of it. Which one do you prefer and why? Please include specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Sometimes I listen to the music on the road and sometimes I don’t. I have to ride my bike to school back and forth every day for about an hour. Music kills time and enriches my emotions. I can’t really focus on any academic subjects on the road, so listening to some music helps me relax and is the best choice. I listen to music on an app called NetEase Music, it is very popular app in China now. Sometimes I listen to the music this app recommends everyday, sometimes I just pick a few song from my favorites list that I want to hear the most.

But under several conditions, I don’t listen to music on the road. First, I really like some music and I want to appreciate it quietly and intently. I don’t want to be distracted by any other factors. Another condition is that I’m exhausted and I need to take a rest in the car. Sometimes I go to school by car because of terrible weather. Then I would rather take a rest and not listen to music. And sometimes I’m just simply not in the mood, I just feel I don’t need music now, I want to blank my mind on the road and I don’t want to think about anything.

Your use of "sometimes" didn't stand out, I'd say it wasn't any more frequent than that of a lot of native speakers.  Instead of "sometimes" though, you can say "On occasion" in place of it when you want to give your writing some variety.

For example:

"Sometimes I like to go shopping." -> "On occasion I like to go shopping." or "I like to go shopping on occasion."

Hope this helps!
