[00:19.62]Debbie and her friend Angela were in a television studio,
[00:27.06]watching the recording¹ of a quiz programme.
[00:32.42]'I'm glad I'm not one of the contestants³!' whispered Debbie.
[00:39.68]'They must feel really worried now!'
[00:45.32]'Oh,I would love to be a contestant²,'said Angela.
[00:53.50]The three real contestants,two women and a man,
[01:01.26]were sitting at their desks,waiting.
[01:06.30] The hot lights were shining down on them.

[01:17.22]put a hand over her eyes, and then fell forward across the desk.
[01:24.58]'Oh,she's fainted.' grasped Debbie.
[01:30.96]Some television staff rushed to the poor woman,and helped her away.
[01:38.51]'Three minutes to go,' shouted the floor manager.
[01:44.15]The director hurried down from the control room.
[01:49.30]'We need another contestant,'he shouted,desperately.
[01:55.77]He asked the audience whether anyone wanted to be a contestant.
[02:03.14]Several hands went up.
[02:07.50]The director looked around.
[02:12.65]The nearest hand belonged to Angela.
[02:17.90]'You're on!' he shouted,and pulled her up onto the stage.
[02:24.88]'Make-up artist,come here!'he demanded.
[02:31.33]A girl rushed forward and quickly powdered Angela's face and combed her hair
[02:39.27]'That will have to do,'said the director.

[02:50.06]'Ten seconds,'shouted the floor manager.
[02:56.22]'Smile,everyone.Cue⁴ Lester!'
[03:01.97]He held his hands up and clapped,
[03:06.93]and everyone in the audience started clapping,too.A voice boomed⁵ out.
[03:15.71]'It's time for the Travel Quiz,and here's your host,Lessssster Liiiii!'
[03:24.64]Lester Li,with a big smile on his face,came running in.
[03:32.30]He told some jokes,
[03:36.06]introduced the three contestants and then started the quiz.
[03:43.22]Angela was terrific⁶. She smiled and looked relaxed.
[03:51.68]She had seen this quiz on television many times before,and knew the rules.
[03:59.54]She answered the questions quickly,
[04:03.91]and was soon ahead of the other two contestants.
[04:09.68]Debbie,however,was a bag of nerves⁷.
[04:16.52]She sat on the edge of her seat and chewed her fingernails!
[04:23.37]Twenty-five minutes later,Angela was in the final.
