One of the most popular quiz programmes on television in the world is called Who Wants To Be A
Millionaire? In Britain, the quiz master is Chris Tarrant. He asks the contestants fifteen questions. The first
questions are easy but later they are more difficult. If you can answer the fourteenth question, you can win
£500,000. You can win a million pounds if you can answer the last question. Of course, the last question is
very difficult.
All the questions on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? are multiple-choice questions. After you hear the
question, you see four answers. Only one answer is correct. You have to choose the correct answer. If you
don’t know the answer to a question, there are three ways you can get help: you can ask the quizmaster to
take away two wrong answers; you can ask the studio audience which answer is right; or you can telephone a
friend and ask for help. You can only do these things once. Very few people win the million pounds. The
first person won a million pounds one year after the programme started.
Today, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? can be seen in more than 100 countries and is now the world’s
most popular quiz programme.

still be there when they come back. There is no beggar here and the air is fresh. Another good thing is the
food. If you love sea food, Da Nang will be the right choice. The food here is very fresh and the price is
cheaper than that in Ho Chi Minh City.
