There are some TV shows that focus on(关注)sports such as basketball and swimming. But Skate Into Love might be the first one to focus on winter sports. The TV show follows a group of skaters who have a strong winning spirit on the ice.
The main characters(角色)of Skate Into Love are two childhood friends and they share a love for ice skating. They meet each other at college(大学)and go for their dreams together. Tang Xue loves speed skating, while Li Yubing is an ice hockey(冰球)player and he is known as the “Ice God” for his talent(天赋).
Their roads to success are not smooth, but they never give up. Tang has to give up speed skating after getting a serious injury during high school. But she finds that her love for the sport doesn’t change in college. With Li’s help, she returns to the ice and practices harder than her teammates to catch up.
The show also shows how exciting winter sports can be. People can learn about many Winter Olympic events by watching this show.

From National Treasure to The Chinese Poetry Competition and then Everlasting Classics (《经典咏流传》), there are a growing number of TV shows about traditional Chinese culture and they’ve caught much attention. Now a new music show about traditional folk music, Flowers Bloom in Spring, has won praise since it first met the public last March.
This popular show was in the form of a singing competition and finally chose four best singers through its 12 episodes (集). A total of 28 groups of young artists took part in the show, and three well-known musicians played the role of Bole.
An Desheng, the producer of the show, said the artists performed over 140 folk music works. The show gave folk songs many modern elements (元素), making young people love to listen and sing. It also combined (使结合) traditional and classic folk songs with popular songs, allowing people to experience the folk songs in a fresh way.
“Now lots of traditional songs, which were created in the countryside, are nearly disappearing. We can’t admire the folk songs sung by the working people while taking a walk in the busy streets full of high buildings,” said Lei Jia, one of the three musicians, adding that she was touched by what the show had done to help young people develop an interest in folk music.
Flowers will bloom in spring, and folk songs will return to life with a brighter future. The new age has added wings to folk songs, and by singing, we’ll welcome the future together.
