Why?小刚: Because the people in front were standing, and those in the back who wanted to sit couldn’t see anything.小宝: Oh, but aren’t concerts supposed to be watched sitting down? There are chairs.小刚: Some people feel that standing and cheering is more exciting, but others want to sit and listen, which makes them unhappy.小宝: Then what should we do? Everyone wants to be comfortable.小刚: A lawyer said the organizers should remind the audience not to block others’ views. People should also be considerate.小宝: Got it! Next time I go to a concert, I’ll be mindful of others and have a good time.小刚: Exactly. Music is meant to bring joy, not arguments over sitting or standing.
