3．Ireland has had a very difficult history.The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.For hundreds of years，the Irish people fought against the English.Finally，in 1921，the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland.The result is that today there are two "Irelands".Northern Ireland，in the north，is part of the United Kingdom.The Republic of Ireland，in the south，is an independent country.
In the 1840s the main crop，potatoes，was affected by disease and about 750，000 people died of hunger.This，and a shortage of work，forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA，the UK，Australia and Canada.As a result of these problems，the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.
For many years，the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers.Today，many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices.Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside，where things move at a quieter and slower pace.
The Irish are famous for being warmhearted and friendly.Oscar Wilde，a famous Irish writer，once said that the Irish were "the greatest talkers since the Greeks".Since independence，Ireland has revived （復(fù)興） its own culture of music，language，literature and singing.Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments.Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin，whistles，etc.

This year，the musicians come from 19 countries，including Azerbaijan，Kazakhstan，Israel and Italy.Schmieder notes some of the musicians are from countries that are at war with each other.And they are sitting next to each other，and they become friends.He says through their music and friendship，they are making the world more peaceful.

This year，the festival focuses on music from the 1600s to the 1900s.But cello player Francisco Vila of Ecuador said the music has no geographic boundaries.

5．Do you like to shop online？ （1）
Maybe you like to do both these things.Smart shoppers know how to use different methods to get the best price.
One common shopper strategy is "showrooming." This means that customers go into a store，look at the product，talk to a salesperson，and then use their smartphones or other mobile devices to find a better price. "Reverse showrooming" is another strategy. （2）One thing is for certain：shoppers are now using many strategies to get the best price.
The number of online shoppers is rising，but not as fast as retailers （零售商） first thought.People still like to go into stores.Teens especially prefer to shop at the shopping center.（3）
In order to keep customers coming into stores，managers need to train salespeople well.In-store shoppers want salespeople to give them a lot of attention，be polite，and know a lot about the product.

However，online shopping doesn't work for every product.People prefer to shop for food in a store.（5）But you still need to drive the car.If you're buying a mattress （床墊），online reviews can't tell you if it will be comfortable for jye.ai.You still need to go into the store and lie on it.
