A popular TV host in China has reportedly invested about $ 740,000 in a project to research, preserve and promote the Hunan provincial dialects. Chinese TV anchors are required to speak Mandarin in their work, but should dialects be allowed on air? Many citizens embrace the TV programs which use dialects, while some experts hold different views. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue.

YES
Dialect is an important part of local culture, but now many kids don’t even know how to speak their local dialects because of the dominant use of Mandarin around them. It would be a pity if future generations were unable to understand and speak the local dialects that are used by their predecessors. It would be a terrible loss in cultural heritage. The television programs, radio programs and some online programs provide good opportunities to introduce dialects and promote the popularity of them. Using dialects on air is an excellent way to promote language variety and protect cultural heritage.
Besides, in the south of China, dialects are used more widely than Mandarin, and the programs about local people’s daily life are more vivid when presented in local dialects.
NO
TV and radio broadcasters should take the lead in popularizing Mandarin. As broadcasters, their primary goal is to let themselves be easily understood by all the audience. It can be imagined that if broadcasters can speak dialects as they please, the audience who do not understand them will be confused. It is also a basic right of the audience around the country to hear Mandarin on TV or radio programs.
To require hosts to speak Mandarin is not to oppress dialects, but only to restrict and curb improper and irresponsible use of language. It is unprofessional for some hosts to imitate the pronunciation of dialects. Some dialects contain vulgar and improper words and expressions, and unrestricted use of dialects will degrade the honor of public media.

On the Use of Dialects on TV
Recently, discussions about dialects being allowed on TV programs have raised public concerns. Some argue that dialect is an essential part of our culture, so language variety should be promoted and local cultural heritage must be preserved. However, others believe that using dialects may cause confusion to the audience who cannot understand them and even lead to irresponsible use of language in public media.
As far as I am concerned, we should make distinctive analyses on specific issues. On the one hand, we ought to promote Mandarin. If hosts speak dialects in CCTV news broadcast, most audiences will get confused. Since the media’s primary function is to broadcast news, the newscaster in particular must speak Mandarin so as to maximize the coverage of the news. On the other hand, we need not handle dialects with " big stick policy". It’s reasonable for local TV channels to promote dialect programs to raise cultural recognition of local people and preserve cultural heritage. Take entertainment programs as an example, they are not as serious as political, economic or military news reports. For this kind of programs, using dialects would surly add color to the style of the programs, and hence improve the effect of such programs. In that case, it’s necessary to encourage the use of dialects in some local TV programs.
In conclusion, Mandarin must be used in serious and national newscast, while dialects should also have their stage in entertainment and local programs.
