Most schools have radio stations. They give you world and Chinese news. Sometimes they play music. What music does your school radio station play? Do you like the music?

●Hu Ziwei, 13, Nanjing

Our school plays songs once a week. Some get excited when they hear songs by pop singers like Jay Chou. I like the theme songs of TV dramas (剧). I hope I can hear more of them.

●Wei Mengdi, 13, Beijing

Each afternoon, when school is over, there is music in the school. It is usually Going Home. After a day of hard work, it relaxes us. As for me, I like to listen to classical music.

●Yang Shutong, 14, Tianjin

Our school radio station used to play songs. But they seldom do it now. I like Jay Chou. I like to hear any song by him.

●Wang Feixuan, 12, Xi’an

Our school plays songs every Friday. They usually play them after the 30-minute class break. Most of the time, the station plays popular music. If I have time, I will ask them to play my favorite classical music.

A Lifelong Journey, a popular TV series (电视剧)，became a hit. It showed the changes in over half a century and has become the most-watched TV series on CCTV in the past five years.

The TV series is adapted (改编) from a novel with the same name which is written by famous Chinese writer Liang Xiaosheng. The novel was first published (出版) in December 2017, and won the 10th Mao Dun Literature Prize two years later.

Starting in the late 1960s, the story of the TV series follows the ups and downs of two brothers and a sister. They come from a working-class family in northeastern China. It shows a group of Chinese people with different jobs to describe the huge influence (影响) brought by China’s social changes.

A Lifelong Journey went popular partly because it wakes people’s memory of the past. The story of a small family mirrors the lives of millions of such small families in China. What’s more, its success results from the actors’ great performances. Without them, the warm atmosphere (氛围) and strong feelings couldn’t be shown.

The year 2021 will be an exciting year for TV, with a mix of historical, family and spy（间谍）.
