I’m a big fan of pop music and I enjoy listening to music quite a lot. Although people can listen to 21 music on their music players when they are travelling, working or studying, 22 festivals and concerts are becoming more and more 23 . This is because I believe they offer two main 24 .
The first one is that the sound is much 25 at live concerts where the music and voices come 26 from the musicians. This makes it a much more emotional(有感染力的) 27 because you have direct contact with the 28 and you react to them and they react to you.
The second advantage is the atmosphere. 29 listening to a recording 30 on your personal music player, at a concert you are 31 with a huge crowd of people and 32 the music together. This means it is a 33 as well as an artistic experience.
The main problem is that you cannot listen to live music whenever you want as you can on a personal music player. Besides, the noise from the audience sometimes damages the quality of the sound.
In my opinion, however, the best way to enjoy music is in the wonderful atmosphere of a live concert. It is more 34 because you are surrounded by other 35 who are dancing with you happily.
21.A.recorded B.live C.soft D.loud
22.A.culture B.tradition C.music D.art
23.A.special B.difficult C.successful D.popular
24.A.questions B.advantages C.challenges D.results
25.A.higher B.lower C.worse D.better
26.A.quickly B.directly C.frequently D.suddenly
27.A.example B.lesson C.experience D.talk
28.A.performers B.audience C.producers D.strangers
29.A.According to B.Instead of C.Except for D.Along with
30.A.patiently B.quietly C.together D.alone
31.A.listening B.playing C.working D.singing

I’m a big fan of pop music and I enjoy listening to music quite a lot. Although people can listen to 21 music on their music players when they are travelling, working or studying, 22 festivals and concerts are becoming more and more 23 . This is because I believe they offer two main 24 .
The first one is that the sound is much 25 at live concerts where the music and voices come 26 from the musicians. This makes it a much more emotional(有感染力的) 27 because you have direct contact with the 28 and you react to them and they react to you.
The second advantage is the atmosphere. 29 listening to a recording 30 on your personal music player, at a concert you are 31 with a huge crowd of people and 32 the music together. This means it is a 33 as well as an artistic experience.
The main problem is that you cannot listen to live music whenever you want as you can on a personal music player. Besides, the noise from the audience sometimes damages the quality of the sound.
In my opinion, however, the best way to enjoy music is in the wonderful atmosphere of a live concert. It is more 34 because you are surrounded by other 35 who are dancing with you happily.
