Passage A
Recently, the TV show Where Are We Going, Dad? , produced by Hunan Satellite Television, has received much praise from people across the nation. It has already become the most popular show of 2021.
In each episode of the program, five fathers spend 72 hours with their children in the countryside, taking care of them without help for the whole three days, while also taking part in a series of activities for the children and their dads to do together.
“It is great fun to see them living in a new environment. There are a lot of funny moments,” said Liu Liping, a 28-year-old fan of the show living in Beijing. “Some parts of the program are touching too. The fathers are always busy working and seldom have time to be with their kids. The time they spend together during the program is especially sweet and unforgettable,” said Liu.
Just what is it about the show that makes it so popular? “It pays close attention to social reality. Dads always focus on earning more money. They put more weight on making a better life for their families than they do spending time with their kids,” said Xie Dikui, general director of the show. As the father of a 3-year-old daughter, Xie said, “After making this program, I feel I really should spend more time with her. Busy as these fathers are being famous people, they are able to spare time for their kids. We can do better than that.”
Most of fathers say that they know this is a problem but that they are helpless when it comes to changing it. “I often have to work overtime in the evening. When I get home late at night, my daughter is already asleep, ” said Tang Jun, father of a 2-year-old girl in Beijing. “I wish I could have more time to be with my daughter. She is so lovely. No matter how tired I am when I come home from work, all that goes away when I see her,” said Tang, “But I have to keep working like this if I want to stay in this position or get a promotion.”

A. It is a TV show where fathers teach how to educate kids.
B. It is a program produced by five father and their kids.
C. It is a TV show sweeping the country.
D. It is the most popular film of 2021.
37. How does Liu Liping feel about the TV show?
