3 . The ongoing coronavirus pandemic has changed not only our own lives, but the lives of those who live to entertain us.
Most US talk show hosts depend on having a live audience. Audiences laugh when hosts crack jokes (讲笑话), they cheer for guests or take part in activities with the host. But with social distancing, talk show hosts have to stay at home just like the rest of us.
I’m a big fan of talk show hosts like Jimmy Fallon, Conan O’Brien and Stephen Colbert. Without guests to interview and audiences to interact with, they’ve had to put new twists (改变) on their shows.
Other hosts choose to bring their families or other people on board for their shows. Host Jimmy Kimmel, for example, has made videos in which he plays with his children at home.
It is kind of heartwarming to see that even famous people have to struggle with the same problems we have while they’re stuck at home. But these hosts still do their best to entertain us.
| A．I have been feeling bored and trying to find something fun to do. |

| E．One of the changes I’ve seen personally has been in TV talk shows. |
| F．Do you know what your favorite talk show hosts have done in quarantine? |
| G．He even surprised a food delivery driver with a pizza to thank him for his work. |
