三、阅读理解

A

Nowadays, there are more and more TV talent shows. They are very popular all over China. These talent shows give everyone a chance to show off their talents. For some lucky people, these shows may make them famous, and can even make them rich. However, there are also many bad sides. First, some young people just imitate(模仿)the people they love. They may forget about their own style. Second, young people spend too much time on such TV shows. They always dream of being a star, so they spend less time on their studies. I think TV talent shows are social activities. Young people can join in these activities to get social experience. But they should know that the chance of being famous is very small for most people and they should know that their schoolwork is much more important.
