THE QUIZ SHOW

My best friend Jenny appeared on a TV quiz show a few nights ago. It was very exciting. We all

knew that she would be on, so all our friends met at her parents’ house to watch it. Her parents videoed

it too, of course. The programme started at half past seven. We screamed and clapped when we saw

Jenny. She looked great. She had had her hair done, and was wearing the new top she had bought the

day before. She sat in the chair in the middle of the studio while the presenter asked her some

questions. The questions got harder and harder as they increased in value If she didn’t make any

mistakes and get the most difficult question right, she would win a million pounds. By this time, Jerry

had won a thousand pounds. That was definitely hers, whatever happened. She answered the next

question correctly, which was worth five thousand pounds. I didn’t know the answer, but she did know!

Then with the next question, she took a risk but got the answer wrong. She was gone out of the game.

Still, she had her thousand pounds, and we were very proud of her.
