Reading
Read the passage and find the participles used as attribute
The weekly talk show named Reader has been a hit in China recently. The talk show hosted by Dong Qing invites people from all walks of life to read aloud. Dong Qing, coming from Shanghai, is a talented hostess. Besides reading, the people taking part in the show also share stories of their own life.
Of all the readers invited to the show, Xu Yuanchong, a famous translator, is the one who impresses me most. In 1921, he was born in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. In 1938 Xu was admitted to the National Southwest
University. Several years later, he studied in some developed countries. He is regarded as the only expert in the world who can translate Chinese poetry into English and French rhyme. Lots of poems translated by him are very popular.
As we know, China is a developing country. Therefore, we have a long way to go not only in economy but also in culture. So I hope there will be more people like Mr. Xu and more programmes like this talk show reader.
