Perhaps you've already watched or heard about Readers, a TV show that has recently become popular. It invites different people to read aloud on the stage as well as tell the touching stories behind them. They can read everything, like poems, novels, and letters．
Many people are fans of the show and begin to enjoy reading aloud at home. Now the show gives people a special place to read across China. Reading pavilions（亭子）are now in cities like Shanghai, Hangzhou and Xi'an.
The pavilion is quite small. Only one person can come into it each time. There is a microphone in it, which records people's voices. Everyone can read anything they like for three minutes in the pavilion. The show will later pick some of the readers and invite them to read on TV.
People of all ages have come and read in the pavilion, according to People's Daily. "Reading should be just like singing and talking, "said Dong Qing, the host of the show. "We can actually express our deep feelings through reading aloud. "
"Both the TV show and the pavilion are promoting（推动）reading among the public, "reported by China Youth Daily. In fact, this is also what our country is trying to do now. During the two sessions this year, deputy（代表）Lu Yaping suggested that a national reading day should be set up, which received support from many other deputies.
