Question

【題目】 The TV show Letters Alive has been a big hit with Chinese audiences. XINHUA More than 95 percent of people in the world have phones today, according to the United Nations.

Since its first episode on Dec 5, Letters Alive has been widely praised. Many audience（觀眾） members said that it has provided breath of fresh air to todays' TV shows.
