《English Translation》

小宝: Brother, I saw in the news that people got into a fight at a concert. 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.
