When you are watching TV, you will notice that many famous stars make the ads on TV. Many people believe them because they are famous.     1    , have you ever thought whether the ads are real or not?

In the past few years, lots of stars     2    （be）on TV as spokesmen（代言人）of some products. People spent much money on these products, but     3    （final）, many of them were not like what the stars said. Many people aren’t     4    （satisfy）with the famous actors for making the ads after accidents.

What are the public’s     5    （idea）about the famous people making ads on TV? Do you agree that the famous people should take responsibility if the products have     6    （some）problem? A research shows that about 36% think it the     7    （star）fault（过错）, but they all think stars should give out the money they got from the ads to the charity（慈善机构）. More than 34% think stars must take responsibility, or they will     8    （punish）.

So we should be more     9    （care）when buying things advertised（做广告）by stars. We must find what these things are really like instead     10     listening to what the stars say. Think it over before we make a decision.

2 . One of my favorite paintings is “Ladies With Flowers in Their Hair” (《簪花侍女图》) by the Tang dynasty artist Zhou Fang. It shows six ladies dressed in beautiful, colorful clothes. The lady on the right is playing with her pet dog. The ladies look so natural-so real-that when I look at the painting, time seems to disappear. I can imagine meeting these ladies while walking in a park. The dog would bark and the ladies would smile at me as they passed by.

I got the same feeling while watching “Night Banquet in Palace of Tang Dynasty” (《唐宫夜宴》). It was one of the many excellent performances staged during this year’s Henan Spring Festival Gala. The performance brought together the elegance (优雅) of the Tang dynasty and the magic of modern technology to create something truly wonderful.

After the Henan Museum has closed for the night, fourteen young women--palace maids (宫女)--step out of a Tang dynasty painting and begin to dance and play. Using augmented reality (增强现实), the scenery surrounds the dancers and changes with the music. The dance itself is both beautiful and humorous. The maids chase each other playfully. One maid even bumps (碰撞) against another with her hip (臀部).

The dance was a big hit with audiences. It had ten million views on the Internet. The show has also aroused young people’s interest in the Tang dynasty. One netizen said, “It really brought our national treasure to life.”

Perhaps the performance has also made you want to learn more about Chinese history. The next time you visit the Shanghai Museum, stop and take a closer look at the ancient paintings there. Who knows? You might be lucky enough to catch one of the ladies smiling at you.
