Section B 2b
Readthe passage. Which three talent shows are mentioned?
Who's Got Talent?
Everyone is good at something, but somepeople are truly talented. It's always interesting to watch other people showtheir talents.
Talent shows are getting more and morepopular. First, there were shows like American Idol and America's Got Talent.Now, there are similar shows around the world, such as China's Got Talent.
All these shows have one thing in common:They try to look for the best singers, the most talented dancers, the mostexciting magicians, the funniest actors and so on.
All kinds of people join these shows. Butwho can play the piano the best or sing the most beautifully? That's up to youto decide.
When people watch the show, they usuallyplay a role in deciding the winner. And the winner always gets a very goodprize. However, not everybody enjoys watching these shows.
Some think that the lives of the performersare made up. For example, some people say they are poor farmers, but in factthey are just actors. However, if you don't take these shows too seriously,they are fun to watch. And one great thing about them is that they give peoplea way to make their dreams come true.

Section B 2b
阅读文章。提到了哪三个才艺表演?
谁有才华?
每个人都擅长某件事，但有些人真的很有天赋。看别人展示自己的才华总是很有趣。
才艺表演越来越受欢迎。起初，有像《美国偶像》和《美国达人秀》这样的节目。现在，世界各地都有类似的节目，比如《中国达人秀》。
所有这些节目都有一个共同点：它们都在寻找最好的歌手、最有才华的舞者、最令人兴奋的魔术师、最有趣的演员等等。
各种各样的人参加这些节目。但是谁能弹得最好的钢琴或唱得最美妙的歌?这由你来决定。
当人们观看节目时，他们通常会在决定获胜者方面发挥作用。获胜者总是获得很好的奖品。然而，并不是每个人都喜欢看这些节目。
有些人认为表演者的生活是编造的。例如，有些人说他们是贫穷的农民，但事实上他们只是演员。但是，如果你不把这些节目看得太认真，它们就很有趣。而且它们的一大优点就是给人们提供了一个实现梦想的方式。
