【答案】CCTV 9 broadcast Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, a documentary produced by BBC. This well-made film
provides foreign audiences with a fresh way of better knowing China’s past and present.
Documentaries about China, produced either in China or in other countries, are becoming increasingly popular
among foreigners. For one thing, the overall development over the past decades has been so striking that they feel eager
to familiarize themselves with what is going on in China.
For another, China enjoys a long history and rich culture. It has always been an attraction for those who are keen on
anything that is Chinese. These documentaries present a splendid picture of China in front of their audiences-it history,
landscape, art, food, or even traditional Chinese medicine.
Because of these films, some foreigners have begun to think of coming to China. In this way, they can form a true
picture of China themselves.
