Many people are fans of the show. They begin to enjoy reading aloud at home. Now, the show gives people a place to read. It is a reading pavilion(朗读亭). It showed up in cities like Shanghai, Hangzhou and Xi'an. Let's have a look!
The pavilion is not very big. Only one person can come into it each time. There is a microphone(麦克风) in it and it records people's voices.
Everyone can read for three minutes in it. You can read anything you like. The show will pick some of the readers and invite them to read on TV.
Lots of people come to the pavilion to read. Yu Duohan is an 11-year-old girl from Shanghai. She read the story Take a Snail for a Walk. "I love reading aloud, "she said." It makes the story become more beautiful."
