Readers is a popular TV show. It invites people to read aloud on the stage. They can read everything that is worth reading. For example, they can read poems, short stories and letters. By reading aloud, the words on the paper come to life.
Many people are the fans of the show. They begin to enjoy reading aloud at home. Now, the show offers them a special place to read across China. It is a reading pavilion(亭子). They are in many cities, including Shanghai, Hangzhou and Xi’an.
The pavilion is very small. Only one person can come into it each time. There is a microphone in it and it records people’s voices. Everyone can read for about three minutes in the pavilion. Then the show will pick some of the readers with good voices and emotions(感情), and invite them to read on TV.
People of all ages read in the pavilion. “Reading should be just like singing and talking,” said Dong Qing, the host and producer of the show. “People need a place to express true feelings, and that’s why we set Readers”.
If you have a chance to read , catch it and try!

【题目】I have lived in France for nine years, but I cannot walk down the street without being recognized(认出) as an Englishman from 50 metres away before I open my mouth. Why?
In France, the quickest way to recognize an Englishman is that he'll be the one with the belly(肚子) and the shirt hanging out. Englishmen often wear shapeless black T-shirts, either too big or too small. However. Frenchmen are more formal in dressing. Their T-shirts have collars(领子). Shorts have buttons and zips rather than drawstrings(拉绳). Shoes look expensive.
Englishmen think of lunchtime as 1 p.m. but for Frenchmen it is 12 o'clock, one hour earlier. This may explain the sad looks if an Englishman arrives at a local restaurant at 1:30 p.m. At that time most restaurants don't have waiters. All the cooking and serving may be done by the boss and his wife. When you are shown to your table, just sit there and wait. Don't wave your hands to the waiters. Englishmen think guests should do something to make the waiters pay attention to them. But in France some bread and water will come first, then the waiters will take your order according to the rhythm(节奏) of the restaurant. Have enough patience!
