This video is about a Chinese TV quiz show of contestants’ knowledge of 詩詞. It so happened that the presiding winner was a law student from Taiwan & was being challenged by an University-1 Chinese literature female student from Taiwan, for supremacy.
Wow, what a show!
(Shamefully, I could only answer 3 of the many questions raised and not fast enough.  )

Just watched the Kentucky Derby on TV, California Chrome won.
The next race to watch is Preakness S ...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNqmQEA1i-0
California Chrome won the Preakness Stake & keep the hope alive for winning the Belmont Stakes & become the first horse since Secretariat to be a Triple Crown winner!
As far as I know, the last race - Belmont Stakes, is a short race. As in any short races, anything can happen.

The Belmont Stakes is coming up but Californian Chrome who won the first two races, may not run, i.e. there may not be a Triple Crown winner this year, again.
However, horse racing fans will always remember & talk about Secretariat – the greatest horse of all times.
Secretariat - Full Documentary. Duration: 41’ 52”.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lhfi6zOLdK4
Secretariat is the most famous horse worldwide, & the last horse to win all 3 of the most prestigious races in the world – Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, & Belmont Stakes, making him the Triple Crown winner.
Secretariat was a good-looking horse, tall, majestic, & with big eyes which commanded respect from his “peers”.
When he won, he won convincingly by “lengths”, making Secretariat the best horse of all times.
At Kentucky, Secretariat started dead last out of the gate. However, not only that he won, he also broke the course record on the way.
At Preakness, again he started dead last, again he won.
At Belmont, he won by 31 lengths, decimated the field by full 2”, unheard of in the horse racing world & in a major event.
There was also a Canadian connection to the Secretariat legend.
The jockey was a French Canadian – Ron Turquot (checking spelling); in addition, Secretariat ran his last race at Woodbine Race Track in Ontario, Canada.
