Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Attending a live performance (for example, a play, concert, or sporting event) is more enjoyable than watching the same event on television. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

The issue whether to attend a live performance or enjoy watching the same event on

is a controversial one.

However

, in my opinion an intermediate position can be taken. I base my suggestion on the following points. But before I begin I think I need to clarify what kind of live performances I like. I mostly attend concerts and prefer to see sporting events on

First

of all, watching an event on

can bring many advantages. One can relax and settle in his favourite chair, eating a cake or having a drink. One does not have to spend time driving to the place where an event takes place.

Also

, he does not spend money on a ticket.

Moreover

, sometimes sitting in front of a

set one is likely to see more interesting parts of a show more clearly with the help of an operator.

Second

of all, the weather is no longer of that importance. He does not care that it is rainy or chilly outside. From the other side, attending a live performance has many advantages too.

Firstly

, people can enjoy the songs as they are in a real time. Personally, I like to attend a live performance because they give much positive energy and many beautiful moments. Frankly, watching a show at home does not give me that. One can enjoy loud music, the closeness of his favourite stars and shout the songs he likes. In summary, I prefer to attend live performances in the case of a concert and show.

However

in contrast

, I prefer to watch sport events on television at home.

Many people think that the best way to learn a culture is to learn the language of it. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
There are people who argue that the best way to study a different culture is to master its language in the first place. Although this is true to some extent, I still believe that learning the language is a supplement rather than a necessity.
