A place you can go to listen to music,这个雅思口语题目很多孩子第一个想到的地方是music hall,再使劲儿想想,就是家里的床了…… 也有刚刚去看了演唱会的娃灵机一动,咦?体育场貌似也可以算是可以听歌的地方哦!很多城市的体育场常年有人开演唱会,所以stadium也算是符合要求吧!
I’d like to talk about the city stadium in my hometown where tons of concerts are held there.
It was not that far from my home, only about 10 minutes’ bus ride.
Every year, there would be at least 5 singers coming here, and the tickets would be sold out immediately.
People love to go there because the environment is awesome, I mean, it can seat 20 thousand audiences, and the lighting effects are fantastic. The seats are comfy as well. So as you can imagine, when the stadium is fully packed, and the singer is performing on the stage, how impressive the atmosphere must be, right?
When the stadium is holding a concert, it would be divided into several sections, the one that is closest to the stage is reserved for the singers’ guests. So the tickets for that area are not for sale.
In the area where a football match is usually held, there would be extra seats added. And the price for those is pretty high. But the price for those fixed seats are relatively affordable.
Every time, the organizer of the concert would set up stalls selling snacks, drinks and glow sticks.
Oh, and I almost forgot, when there’s no concert, there would be buskers outside the stadium, performing music. Usually the songs are light and soft, so when people are taking a walk nearby, they would stop and listen for a while.
