Do you like traditional classics (经典作品)? Are they difficult for you to understand? Here is a program called China in Classics. It is a large cultural program. It’s produced by CCTV-1 and creative media. Sa Beining is the contemporary scholar (当代学者), Wang Jianing is the program host, and Tian Qinxin is the artistic director.
The program focuses on excellent Chinese cultural classics and uses the creative form of space-time dialogue. It tells the shining stories in books in the long river of 5, 000 years of history. The program was first shown on CCTV-1 at 20: 00 on February 12, 2021.
The production team of China in Classics feels that it is a good starting point to spread traditional culture from excellent classics. However, no matter how excellent the culture is, once it loses its inheritance, it will die away little by little. CCTV has an important communication position and has the duty to pass on the traditional Chinese culture.
The program uses new methods to bring traditional classics to the screen and make “classics live”. It sets up two stages of “historical space” and “real space”. It invites some actors to present the stories of classics in the historical space. It also tells the stories through space-time talks between the scholar and the actors in the real space. In this way, the program brings the audience (观众) closer to each classic. When the audiences watch the program, they seem to go on a journey with the ancient people. Up to now, the program has produced 14 classics, including Shi Ji (史记), Travels of Xu Xiake and so on.
The traditional classics are the treasure of China. If you have problems understanding the traditional classics, choose China in Classics.

5 . In recent days, a TV series called Awakening Age (《觉醒年代》) has become popular among young people. It is produced by National Radio and Television Administration (国家广播电视总局) to celebrate 100th birthday for the Communist Party of China (CPC中国共产党).
It bases on the real history in China from 1915-1921, a critical (决定性的) period for the birth of CPC. We all know that some major events happened in that period. One is New Culture Movement (新文化运动), the leaders of this movement are ambitious (热望的) people who were eager to change the darkness days into a bright future.
Let’s see what the TV series inspired the young generation of today.
I like it because I can feel the power of youth from the drama. In order to wake people up to the problems, many students gave speeches in the streets. They tried their best to fight for a better world. Also, they spread ideas of democracy (民主) and science no matter what troubles they would get into.
—George, 14
Among all the characters, I admire (欣赏) Chen Yannian the most. He has made great contributions (贡献) to the development of the CPC. Although his life was short — he only lived to the age of 29 — his spirit will always live in people’s hearts. The show encourages me to face difficulties in a brave and positive (积极的) way.
—David, 15
They are just my age, but they are bearing such great responsibility.
