Para.2
Tang made a great contribution to the Chinese cross-talk. In his performances, he played many different funny characters very vividly. For instance, he imitated different singing styles to make people laugh. My favourite Tang Jiezhong's work is The Reverie in the Tiger's Den(《虎口遐想》)with Jiang Kun. A twenty-eight lad was trapped in the tiger's den by mistake, which caused a series of funny daydreams. And many people tried their best to rescue him. I adored their performing style and humour.

Para.3
Tang dedicated his life to the cross-talk career. He performed many times in a row at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. He is really a great crosstalk performer.
Thank you!
