Question

【题目】 The most popular TV program in the UK last year was a reality show called The Great British Bake Off. Each week, ordinary people compete to make the best cakes and bread within a time limit （限定）.The competition takes place in a very large tern in a big garden. There arc two judges, and each week they choose a "Star Baker "（the best baker）. They also choose one person who must leave the competition. Al the end of ten weeks there is one winner.

The program started in 2010, and nobody expected it to be so popular. People really enjoyed watching the baking and the good atmosphere（气氛） on the show. The competitors were all very friendly to each other, and even helped their opponents（对手）. This was very different from other reality TV shows. Some people think the show is typically British, with a good sense of humour and friendly people.

Since the show started, baking has become very popular in the UK. and many young people have started baking at home. Shops have sold lots of products for baking, like bowls and food mixers. More than 19 percent of British people bake at least once a week at home now.

Unfortunately for tans, the show is going to change next year and there will be new judges. Nobody knows if the new Great British Bake Off will be as popular as the original program. But, making cakes （and eating them!）will definitely continue to be popular with British people.
