WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?
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 answer
the fourteenth question correctly, you can win £500,000. You can win a million pounds if you
can answer the last question. Of course, it is very difficult to come to the last question.
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.
