To start, let's parse the Japanese sentence piece by piece so we can map it to English.
- 週末 (shuumatsu) means 'the weekend.'
- 、 is a punctuation pause, separating the time expression from the verb.
- 音楽を (ongaku o) is 'music' with the object marker を, indicating 'music' is the thing being listened to.
- 聞きます (kikimasu) is the polite non-past form of the verb 聞く (kiku), meaning 'to listen' or 'to hear,' here interpreted as 'will listen' or 'listen to.'
Putting it together, the sentence conveys an action planned for the weekend: listening to music.

Now evaluate each option:
- Option 1: "I am going to listen to music on the weekend." This captures the time expression 'on the weekend' and the action 'listen to music,' using a future-oriented English construction. It aligns with the polite non-past Japanese form indicating a plan or scheduled action, making it a good natural translation.
- Option 2: "I listen to music every night." This changes the time frame from 'the weekend' to 'every night,' which is not present in the sentence. It also uses a habitual present tense nuance rather than a specific future plan.
- Option 3: "I will listen to music tonight." Here the time phrase is 'tonight,' which mismatches the original 'weekend' (weekend implies Saturday or Sunday, not tonight).
- Option 4: "I am listening to music now." This uses a present continuous sense 'am listening' and indicates happening at the moment of speaking, which contradicts the weekend-time plan in the Japanese sentence.

In summary, the only option that preserves both the time expression (the weekend) and the intended future action (listening to music) with a natural English rendering is the first option. The other choices alter either the time frame or the aspect of the action, leading to inaccuracies relative to the source sentence.
