The following three programs have become highly popular among viewers (观众) for their stress on the traditional Chinese culture and literature(文学).Chinese Poetry CompetitionThis TV poetry competition show brought about a wide discussion by shaping the viewers’opinions on classical Chinese poems. The competitors should not onlymemorize a large number of poems, but also have a quick mind and a good usage ofpoems. Besides the competitors’fantastic performance, the show also introduced thepoems to the viewers through pictures or music.ReadersThe weekly talk show, Readers, is directing the public attention to Chinese literature. It invites people from all walks of life, such as writers, doctors or actors, toread aloud excerpts(节选) from poems, letters or books they like or wrote. Afterreading, the guests also share stories from their own life explaining why the excerptstouched their heart. Though the beautiful words, Readers brings the almost-lost habit of reading back into the public, allowing the public to experience the beauty of language.Letters Alive Letters as a way of communication have long given way to phone calls. But Letters Alive is helping bring this old way back into the present. To date the program, with eleven star performers reading letters written by historical people, has been widely watched online. Mostly written towards the end of a writer’s life, these letters are shaping the viewers’ value on life and death.46.

Before that we live on looms, and before that we lived on Keeler. Before Keeler it was Paulina. The water pipes (水管) on Loomis broke. That’s why we moved to Mango Street.It’s a small and brown house with a broken front door. There is no front yard. It looks smaller between the two buildings on either side. There are two stairs in our house, but they are ordinary hallway stairs, and the house has only one washroom. Everybody has to share a bedroom.Once a classmate passed by and saw me playing out front.“Where do you live?” She asked.“There,” I said pointing up to the house.“You live there?”“You live there?” The way she said it made me feel nothing.“There,” I nodded.I knew then I have to have a house on a hill like the ones with gardens where Papa works. I used to go there. I don’t anymore. I’m tired of staring at them like the hungry.One day I will on my own house. Not a flat. Not a daddy’s house. A house all my own. Only a house quiet as snow and clean as paper. People who lives on hills sleep so close to the stars that they forget those who live too much on the earth. But I won’t forget who I’m or where I came from. The passing homeless will ask, “Can I come in, lady?” I’ll offer them a room and ask them to stay, because I know how it is to be without a house.

Pangolins!Pangolins is a name coming from the Malaysian word “pengguling”, which means “rolling over”, as they are able to roll themselves up into a ball when facing danger. The scales, covering most their bodies, are quite protective. If other animal gets caught between the scales, it can get a serious cut.Pangolins live mainly on ants and some other insects. With small heads and no tooth, pangolins have very long, strong and sticky(黏的) tongues that are perfect for getting ants in the deep holes. As they have poor eyesight, they look for ants with their sense pf smell. With strong legs, they are not only good at digging holes but also can run surprisingly fast and often rise on their back legs to smell the air.Sleeping in the daytime and looking for food at night, pangolins are called the animals of night. Since they are very secretive, it is difficult for scientists to study them. Though little is known, pangolins are greatly killed for their meat and scales. Most Asian people believe the scales can have medical purposes. But according to recent research, the scales actually are no good medicine, as they are made from the same thing that also forms human hair and fingernails.Almost killed to extinction(灭绝)，pangolins are now regarded as one of the most valuable animals that need protection. World Pangolin Day is marked on the third Saturday in February to call upon the public to protect them.56.Pangolins get their name bacause they _____.A.
