Keys: reading pages 58-49

Hi, here are the keys:

page 58, exercise 2-
a- The $64,000 Question, Twenty-One
b- 1998
c- Phone a friend, Ask the Audience, 50:50
d- John Carpenter
e- lucky- she saw the correct answers highlighted on her screen; unlucky- she gave the money back and was allowed to try again, but lost on the fourth question.


page 59, exercise4-
He was unusual because he was not from Australia ( the questions are usually designed for people from the country where the quiz is taking place) and because he made so many calls to get onto the show.

ex. 5
a- he returned to Britain andn appeared on the show.
b- he won the same figure prize money, although in pounds instead of dollars; he made a large number of calls in order to get on the show.

ex- 6
He appeared on the Irish version of the show and lost because he didn't know the answer to a question about an Irish actor ( which many Irish people would have known). He tossed a coin to decide the answer, although he had the " phone a friend" lifeline left.

Hi everybody. As you know, we have to do same slides about scottish cinema.
My two or tree slides will be on the director Alexander Mackendrick and I will focus on his
most scottish film "Wisky Galore".
