4 / 5 UNIT 5 课时检测（二） “Reading and Thinking” 的课文习读环节 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A I went to my first music festival with my friend this summer. Unlike the majority of festival-goers, we did not buy tickets. Instead，we volunteered as festival servers for Oxfam. We each worked in exchange for a free ticket to the festival. Leeds Festival is a large music festival which takes place at Branham Park.It takes place towards the end of August, and thousands of people attend each year. There are several different stages, each suitable for a different music taste. As well as the great music on offer, there are also funfair rides，food outlets and a silent disco. Among these things, I love silent discos: everyone has a set of headphones with two channels and music is played through the headphones. As a result, people can be dancing and singing along to completely different songs! When we were not working, we were free to enjoy the festival.We saw a wide variety of artists across the weekend. My favorite day was the Sunday — in my opinion, this had，by far，the best lineup (阵容). I really enjoyed seeing Imagine Dragons, Vampire Weekend and, of course, Arctic Monkeys, which are popular bands attracting thousands of people. Although it was August, I could not believe how cold it was at night! We camped for five nights — a bit longer than the general public — and it was freezing every night! However, we had a really fantastic campsite. People who work at festivals stay in a different campsite to the general public. Our campsite was smaller, quieter and a lot cleaner! I had a great time and will definitely return next year! 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文，主要叙述了作者在利兹音乐节上当志愿者并享受这一音乐节的情况。 1．How did the author attend the music festival? A．By buying a ticket.
