Sample Answer
I’ve always dreamed of watching the live performance of my favorite singer, but I never had the chance to do it, so I just watched a live performance that was presented by her fans. It was like a live room and it was during my last summer vacation that I went with my friends.
The singers were not any famous musicians or artists. They were simply just parents who could sing and perform my favorite singer songs well. But we all loved the performers. We quite enjoyed the whole life like the concert, despite the heavy rain that night.
All the performers were really determined, dedicated and hardworking as it rains really hard and all the audience wore raincoats or had their umbrellas, but none of the singers on stage could do that so they just sang songs and danced in the rain. Although that kind of extreme weather did influence the experience of that live show, we still enjoyed it a lot because it was great to have so many like minded people around the stage singing and dancing the songs we all love. And we are all great fans of that singer, so we respect every performer on the stage and we appreciated their courage and their dedication.
And what’s more, I arrived a little bit late that night, but my friends helped me to save a seat in the front so that I could enjoy the show without standing all the time. It was in the summer, but because of the heavy rain, it was really cool at that time and I got some souvenirs from other fans which were really beautiful and delicate.
All in all, watching that live performance was quite an unforgettable memory for me and I hope one day I can go to similar ones or go to the real concert I’m looking forward to.
Part 3
1. What kind of party have you had so far?
So far, the kind of party I often attend is the birthday party. In my country, a large number of people, especially children, will hold such parties when they celebrate their birthdays.
During these birthday parties, there are usually colorful decorations, delicious cakes, and various kinds of snacks. Friends and family members gather together, singing the birthday song and giving their best wishes. It’s a really warm and joyful occasion where everyone can have a great time.
2. Do you think it is hard for people to perform in front of their friends?
Well, I think it’s actually not that hard for people to perform in front of their friends. In fact, they might feel more relaxed compared to performing in front of relatives. Friends usually create a more casual and supportive atmosphere. When people perform in front of friends, they know that their friends will be more understanding and encouraging.
However, most performances usually take place in important events or on the stage, which can be more challenging. In such formal situations, people may feel more pressure due to the large audience and the significance of the occasion. But when it comes to performing in front of friends, the pressure is much less, and people can be more at ease and show their true abilities.
4. Is it expensive to watch a live performance in your country?
Yes, it’s indeed a bit expensive to watch a live performance in my country nowadays. A few years ago, say four or five years back, it wasn’t that costly. But now, the prices have been increasing. Especially for the concerts of well-known singers, the tickets can be really expensive. Maybe it’s because more and more people can afford to pay for these performances now. As the demand rises, the prices also go up accordingly. Some people may think it’s a bit overpriced, but for fans of those artists, they are willing to pay the price to have the opportunity to see their idols perform live and experience the unique atmosphere of the concert.
5. Why do many people prefer to watch a live performance rather than watch it on TV?
Many people prefer to watch a live performance because the atmosphere at the scene is much better. When you’re at a live performance, you’re surrounded by a lot of people, all sharing the same moment of joy and excitement. Everyone is laughing together, cheering together, and fully immersed in the atmosphere. You know that all the people around you have the same passion for the performer or the event, which makes you feel even more excited. It’s a unique and unforgettable experience. In contrast, when you watch it on TV, you lack that sense of being part of the crowd and sharing the emotions directly. The live performance gives you a more immersive and interactive experience, which is why so many people are willing to go and watch it in person instead of just watching it on the screen.
