It’s one of the greatest sitcoms(情景喜剧) ever made, loved by millions of fans all over the world.
In fact, ever since Friends ended its 10-year run in 2004, the world has been dying for a reunion. But now, it may be the time. The Hollywood Reporter reported that the six cast members and the show’s creators were now in talks to reunite on HBO Max last month.
The news generated excitement. “It’s been nearly 25 years ... but the fascination (魅力) and universal appeal (吸引力) of the hit TV series lives on with fans of all ages,” Peter van Roden, a US Emmy-award winning producer, told Entertainment Weekly.
But why has a show with 10 years of episodes become one of the most re-watched TV programs ever?
Writing at CS Monitor, critic Cathaleen Chen said Friends was special for its “lighthearted pleasantries (轻松愉快)”.
In the show, the six characters spend most of their free time in the now iconic (标志性的) Central Perk coffee shop. Instead of zany (搞笑的) storylines, the characters often make us laugh through their natural conversation. With six different personalities, it’s natural that there will be fights and arguments, but they usually reunite and help each other.
Indeed, many viewers love the show for its relaxing nature. “Friends was nothing more than a very funny, anxiety-free sitcom,” Salon’s Willa Paskin wrote on the 20th anniversary of the show in 2014. “The pure pleasure-giving sitcom has never been a rare thing.”
It’s about more than just pleasure, though. Friends also reflected (反映) the realities faced by young people entering adulthood.
Watching the show feels like reading the story of a young person’s life, said British lecturer Brett Mills.
“It’s about people working out how they are going to live their lives – what kind of relationships they are going to have, what kind of job, and the difficulties of settling down,” Mills told the Daily Mail. “You’ve asked all those questions about escaping from your family, becoming an adult and working out what you want to be.”

A.Its six main actors will have a reunion.

2.What makes Friends popular with viewers, according to Chen?

3.What can viewers learn from Friends, according to Mills?

Chinese TV shows that describe young people's lives in modern society are crossing the cultural divide and attracting a lot of foreign audiences.
One of the examples is the Chinese TV series "A Beautiful Daughter-in-law Era", a light comedy about a modern Chinese couple.
The TV series was first aired in Shanghai in November 2009. It was dubbed in Swahili and broadcast in east African countries in 2011. Two Kenyan(肯尼亚人) actresses were chosen to do voice dubbing for the two leading roles in the African version of the series. It was a great success in Africa.
Tanzanians(坦桑尼亚人) say that they are able to understand how young Chinese people live happily in modern times and they may be able to find ways to solve their personal problems by watching the series.
Although China is one of the world's most prolific(多产的) producers of TV series, its series are not particularly popular overseas. The popularity of "A Beautiful Daughter-In-Law Era" may serve as an example for Chinese TV producers who want to bring their work to other countries.
In recent years, some TV series that show the lives of people in Chinese cities have achieved some success in the foreign market.
"Go Lala Go!," a TV series that details the adventures of a female office worker named Du Lala, has also started to reach global audiences. The series has been exported to Singapore, Malaysia, the United States and Canada.
"The Chinese dream will be more easily accepted by foreign audiences when it is manifested in small and touching stories," said Meng Jian, a professor at Fudan University.
1.What can Tanzanians do by watching the Chinese TV series "A Beautiful Daughter-in-law Era"?
A.They can be chosen to do voice dubbing for the leading roles.
B.They can bring their work to other countries.

Everyone has got two personalities(性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don't like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
If you sleep on curled up(蜷缩),you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced(平衡的)personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.

A.a science magazine B.a guide book C.a sports newspaper

Nowadays, TV PK shows(选秀节目)are great hit in China and have become popular among many young people. Some of them even give up their studies to attend these shows in the hope of becoming famous overnight. Some people think these shows provide people with more chances to show their talents, while others believe that attending these shows does no good to the young people.
It is true that some young people like Li Yuchun have stood out from plenty of competitors in the PK shows, but that doesn't mean attending the PK shows is a good way to become successful for all the young people. The following reasons can support my opinion. Firstly,TV PK shows bring restlessness(不安定)and might make young people hunt after fame(追逐名利)at whatever cost. Secondly, TV PK shows might be bad for young people's values. They may think attending the PK shows can make it easier to become successful, so they may look down upon the way of achieving success by hard work: Finally, if the young people fail in these shows, they will feel down.
In a word, I think taking part in TV PK shows is not a good way for young people to make a success. I suggest that young people think twice before deciding to attend a PK show.
