Television has been one medium of communication that has connected millions. And it is this connectivity that makes talent hunt shows on the tube amazingly influential. Young faces conveying acute disappointment or even overwhelming joy have become a common sight on as many channels as your remote allows you to surf.

The advantages of the shows are obvious to some people. For one thing, in terms of business, the increasing popularity of talent shows has helped the channels in generating huge revenues by way of advertising and promotions. As a result, more and more brands, such as Mogolian Yoghurt, are collaborating with channels in an effort of brand building. Consequently, the leaders of channels which has been proudly hosting talent shows are laughing all the way to the bank, not surprisingly. For another, talent show also bring great pleasure and excitement to viewers’ lives. We often see young and old alike being glued to their TV sets afraid of missing the next wave of emotions. However, there are still quite a few people who strongly oppose these shows. Reality television has been vilified as the lowest form of entertainment and a threat to intelligence.

Personally, I side with the former opinion. It is a wonderful feeling and a great way to relax for me to watch talent shows and see ordinary people like myself become famous and win cash prizes. As long as talent shows are entertaining and inspiring us, there is great sense in keeping and encouraging them.

The Olympic Games provide us with an opportunity to develop many urban projects and creative industries which are key to city development. Development is a long-term objective while the Games are a one-off project. The city and its industries will remain when the games are over.

As the quardennially-held games, Olympic Games is the world's most popular sporting event, many local citizens are afraid that they cannot afford to watch the competitions.The government should take into consideration "the situations of China" when setting the prices. Except for the opening and closing ceremonies and a few popular events, the majority of tickets will be very, very cheap so that all Chinese have a chance to come and watch the Games.
