Will crosstalk become extinct? Several years ago, people could switch on the TV and very often would find a crosstalk performance being broadcast．Today, a person could sit in front of the TV set for seven days a week,24 hours a day, and still have trouble finding a single crosstalk show．Many people who were born before the late 1970s can remember a long list of crosstalk performers：Ma Sanli, Feng Gong, Hou Yaowen, Jiang Kun, Li Jindou, Ma Ji, Niu Qun, Su Wenmao．In mid-1980s,many of these performers frequently appeared on television programmes in short comedy skits．But most of them have since disappeared from public view．Only a few－such as Feng Gong, Jiang Kun and Niu Qun－remain fresh in people’s memory thanks to their performances at China Central Television’s annual Spring Festival evening show．These performers, however, are unwilling to devote all their time to crosstalk．Feng has been trying his hand at movies, and Niu worked as a magazine editor for a while before taking up a job as deputy county magistrate in Anhui Province．
When the art form first made its appearance 150 years ago, performers would put on shows outside or at temple fairs．Its fans were mainly farmers, peddlers and artisans．Many old crosstalk artists performed in the Tianqiao area in old Beijing, where performances of folk art were concentrated．However, for that reason, crosstalk was looked down upon and the performances were regarded as shows for the lower classes at that time．Open-air performances also allowed interaction between artists and audiences, which helped keep the art form full of vitality．The humor of crosstalk is characterized by close observation of ordinary people’s lives．
While there were hundreds of full-time writers engaged in composing interesting comic routines in the 1950s, there are few professional writers of crosstalk nowadays．Almost all the former crosstalk writers have chosen to move into TV and film scripts, which makes more money and can be done more quickly as well．But there are also new crosstalk scripts, many created by amateur writers．But most of their work lacks appeal because, on the whole, it merely eulogizes what is good in Chinese society, rather than criticizing and satirizing problems, experts said．As a result, few modern crosstalk routines have become popular as the old ones．
Some experts have called for crosstalk to adapt to keep pace with the rapidly changing world．Crosstalk seems to have a long road ahead before it can prosper as it did in the past．

The largest-ever chariot pit (战车坑) of relics with carts and horse bones has been discovered in Henan Province. It may lead to the uncovering of chariot pit groups that could be a key to understanding Chinese civilizations that existed more than 2,000 years ago.
Experts said the relics are dated more than 300 years earlier than the famous warriors (武士) in Shaanxi Province. What excited the experts were two other projects that located two huge pits with similar features.
“It is absolutely a miracle. These relics indicate that there could be a tomb group in this area, which is likely to be important for China’s archaeological (考古学的) studies,” said Ma Juncai, a leading relic researcher in the province.
In ancient China, carts, sheep, spoons and so on were buried to ensure that dead people had a happy afterlife. The number and quality of the sacrifices indicated the social status of the dead. The custom was carried into the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Qinshihuang’s tomb, located near Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, is accompanied by thousands of wood or clay figures of warriors and horses. The tomb is probably the most well-known.
The discovered pit measures 10.4 meters long, 8.4 meters wide and 5 meters deep. It holds 20 carts in different sizes. The smallest one is 1.05 meters long and 1.3 meters wide.
Experts think that 40 horses are likely to be found as well. Careful plans need to be made to deal with the demanding uncovering. “The clay is very weak and a small misstep can destroy the whole project. That’s why we need to take every step very carefully to protect these cherished cultural relics,” Ma said.
What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The dead people’s sacrifices in ancient China.
B. China’s archaeological studies.
C. The discovery of a large chariot pit in Henan.
D. The history of Chinese civilizations.
According to Ma Juncai, the uncovering of the three pits is a miracle because _______.
A. it shows there may be a tomb group there
B. it’s helpful in discovering Emperor Qinshihuang’s tomb
C. the relics are dated such a long time ago
D. the relics are more than 300 years older than the ones in Shaanxi
It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ______.
A. all dead people had sacrifices in ancient China
B. the discovered pit is the most well-known in the world
C. the discovered pit dates back to the Qin Dynasty
D. Emperor Qinshihuang wanted to maintain his power after death
Careful plans for the uncovering are needed because ______.
A. another 40 horses are likely to be found as well
B. the whole uncovering could be destroyed easily
C. experts are too busy to spare time for it
D. the government hasn’t agreed to it
Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The discovery has drawn the leading experts’ attention.
B. A lot of cultural relics have been discovered in Henan.
C. 40 horses have been discovered together with the chariot pit.
D. The discovered carts in the chariot pit are similar in size.
