SURPRISES AT THE STUDIO

"Five minutes to go," shouted the director. "Is everyone ready?" "I'm glad that I’m not one of the contestants!" Denise said. "I'm not that brave."

"Oh, I’d love to be a contestant," said Angela.

The three contestants were sitting at their desks on the stage and waiting. The hot lights were shining down upon them. Suddenly one of them passed out and fell across her desk.

A cameraman helped the woman off the stage.

The director hurried down from the control room above. "We need another contestant," he shouted. "Who among you wants to be on TV? "

Angela raised her hand. "You’re on! " the director shouted. He led her onto the stage, and a make-up artist rushed forward. She quickly put make-up on Angela’s face and brushed her hair. "Ten seconds," shouted the director. "It’s time for Travel Quiz, and here’s your host, Lester Li!" said a loud voice. Lester Li ran out onto the stage. The quiz show began. Although Angela was not prepared, she seemed relaxed and did really well. She answered the questions with no problems and was soon ahead of the other two contestants.

Twenty-five minutes later, Angela just had to answer six more questions to beat the other contestants and to win the prize.

Denise was so excited that she could hardly keep still. Though the questions were getting more and more difficult, Angela kept getting them right.

Soon there was just a single question between Angela and victory. "And finally, where’s Big Ben?" asked Lester.

"In England," replied Angela.

"Correct! " shouted Lester. "You're tonight's lucky winner. You've won tonight’s prize-a trip for two to the lovely city of Paris!"

第五单元行动！

工作室的惊喜

“还有五分钟，”导演喊道。“大家都准备好了吗？”“我很高兴我不是参赛者之一！”丹尼斯说。“我没那么勇敢。”

“哦，我很想成为一名选手，”安吉拉说。

三位选手坐在舞台上的桌子旁等待。炽热的灯光照在他们身上。突然，其中一个人昏倒在她的桌子上。

一位摄影师把那个女人扶下了舞台。

主任急忙从上面的控制室下来。“我们需要另一名参赛者，”他喊道。“你们中谁想上电视？”

安吉拉举起了手。“你上了！”导演喊道。他领着她走上舞台，一位化妆师冲上前去。她很快在安吉拉的脸上化妆并梳头。“十秒钟，”导演喊道。“是时候进行旅行测验了，主持人莱斯特·李来了！”一个响亮的声音说。莱斯特·李跑上舞台。问答节目开始了。虽然安吉拉没有做好准备，但她看起来很放松，做得很好。她毫无问题地回答了问题，很快就领先于其他两位选手。

25分钟后，安吉拉只需再回答六个问题就可以击败其他参赛者并赢得奖项。

丹妮丝激动得几乎无法保持安静。尽管问题越来越难，安吉拉还是不断地把问题弄对。

很快，安吉拉和胜利之间只有一个问题。“最后，大本钟在哪里？”莱斯特问。

“在英国，”安吉拉回答。

“正确！”莱斯特喊道。“你是今晚的幸运赢家。你赢得了今晚的大奖，这是一场双人巴黎之旅！”
