These videos started on Chinese short-video platform Douyin and have spread to social media in other countries. People from all over the world are interested in the videos and even made their own. In these videos, a young child calls out to their mother or father; the parent enters the room smiling, turns around and calls out to their own parent; the grandparent then enters smiling and calls out to their parent-the great-grandparent. These videos show the structure of a Chinese family. In many Chinese families, several generations live together. This is called one big family. Usually it is “four-two-one"-four grandparents, two parents, one child. Also, the videos show how much Chinese people love their family. "They make me miss my grandma." A Facebook user from England wrote. In fact, the "four-generation" videos have not only touched many foreigners in Western countries, ▲ made them know about Chinese family better. In most Western countries, most families are smaller. Kids usually move out of the house after they turn 18. Many of them work part-time jobs in order to pay for college and rent. If they choose to continue living with their parents after becoming adult, people will think they are unsuccessful. Although family structures in China and West countries may be different,the love and bonds（关系）between family members are the same. That might be why the "four-generation" videos have won so many hearts around the world. ( )16.Have the videos spread to social media in other countries? A.I don’t know. B.Yes, they have.
