Television talk shows have been popular since arrival of the medium, like many shows coming from the ones on radio. For example, the start of talk shows’ golden age can be considered in 1948, although the television was not common in American homes until the 1950s. From 1949 to 1973, nearly half of all daytime programs on the three networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) was talk.

As we know that video did not kill the talk show hosts, the radio stars—it made him / her an even bigger star. Hosts during the golden age included Arthur Godfrey (Arthur Godfrey and his friends), Dave Garroway (The Today Show), and Jack Par (The Tonight Show). All were necessary parts in the formation of the talk show formats (编排) we know and love today.

A talk show can cost less than＄100,000 per episode (连续剧中的一集) to produce while many of today’s dramas cost more than＄million an episode.  So, if successful, it can make bountiful money.

Still, it takes a lot of work. Since 1948, hundreds of talk shows have come and gone, with only a few having true staying long. Conan O’Brien, for example, tried to stay long only because the network did not know what else to put in its place.

There are several types of talk shows, from the foreign and strange programs like Comedy Central’s The Graham Norton Effect to the more traditional Late Show with David Letterman. But while the styles might be different, the format is limited (受限制).

What we are mos used to is the informal (非正式的) guest-host format, in which the show’s host welcomes famous people or other talk-worthy people, and this is considered as an informal discussion. The scene is is very comedic (戏剧性) or musical or both.

The second most common format is the public affairs (公共事务) show, in which a host or hosts interviews people in the news or experts in a given field. Shows that follow this format include booth the morning news programs (Good morning America Or Meet the Press) and “issue” talk shows  (The Oprah Winfrey Show or The Jerry Springer Show).

Everything else is mainly a mixture of these two formats.

(  ) 33. The start of the talk shows’ golden age was __________.

 A. In the 1920s B. In the 1940s C. In the 1950s D. From 1949 to 1973

(  ) 34. ________ are the famous hosts during the golden age.

 A. Arthur Godfrey  

 B. Arthur Godfrey and his Friends

 C. Dave Garroway and Jack Par 

 D. Arthur Godfrey, Dave Garroway and Jack Par

(  ) 35. What does the underlined word “bountiful” mean in Chinese in Paragraph 3?

 A. 少许 B. 大量 C. 漂亮的 D. 看不见的

(  ) 36. Why can’t many talk shows stay for a long time?

 A. Because it costs much to produce per episode.

 B. Because they can’t make money from their programs.

 C. Because they have nothing new to put in their programs.

 D. The passage does not tell the readers about it.

(  ) 37. In which kind of talk shows, do the hosts always interview people in the news?

 A. The guest-host format shows. B. The public affairs shows.

 C. Both A and B.  D. Neither A nor B.
