Unit 13　People 【美文阅读】　 Grassroots Star—Zhu Zhiwen 只要勤奋努力，坚持不懈，即使出身卑微也能成功。草根明星朱之文就是这么一个例子。 China Daily—A farmer from a small village of Shan County，Heze，Shandong Province has surprised Chinese audiences with his powerful singing voice and humble(卑贱的)background. The video clip of 42-year-old Zhu Zhiwen interview for a local TV talent show has attracted over 1 million hits in one week.State broadcaster China Central Televisions weather host，Song Yingjie，even forwarded(转发)the video，praising the farmer turned singer. One of the three judges at the audition(试听)，Li Jun，said that he first thought he was listening to a recording when he heard Zhu sing live.He said that Zhu not only has a great voice，but also has a good grasp of singing technique. The shocked judges even checked Zhus hands to see if they were rough and asked him questions about farming because they could not believe that Zhu was just an ordinary farmer and not a professional singer. The shows producer，Chai Min，said that Zhu appeared to be nervous before the audition and was not sure about his clothes：a long military coat and red sweater with loose threads. Zhu，who has since been called“coat elder brother”，has promised a place in the shows final in April，Chai said. Meanwhile，fans showed their support for the farmer by posting good luck wishes for Zhu on the talent shows online forum at B. Some online users even suggested that Zhu should be included in CCTVs special Chinese New Years Eve broadcast，the most watched TV program in China. Like several other performers，one commentator(评委) said，Zhu shot to fame by winning over the online community with his grassroots background，which also indicated the publics disapproval of the culture of elitism(精英主义)． 【诱思导学】　 1．Why the judges were shocked and checked Zhus hands? ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 2．What does the author want to tell us by telling u
