Last month, our school organized a “Travel Knowledge Quiz”, and this quiz is just like the TV programme 1 we watched in English class. I wanted to join because I love learning about world landmarks, but I knew I had to prepare 2 to compete with other students.
Every evening after homework, I spent 40 minutes reading books about famous places. I copied facts about the Eiffel Tower and 3 Venice Film Festival, then stuck 4 notes on my bedroom wall to review them. My friend Lisa, who is good at geography, studied with me. She explained African rivers to me, and I taught her European festivals. This way, we both felt 5 confident than before.
On the quiz day, the school hall was turned into a small TV studio. Workers set up bright lights that shone down 6 the stage, and a cameraman tested his equipment carefully. A make-up artist walked over and said, “I’ll put light make-up on you. The strong lights 7 make your skin look shiny if we don’t do this.” We agreed, and she worked quickly.
Before the quiz started, the host Ms. Wang, our English teacher, spoke to us. She said, “You might feel nervous, 8 remember this: you 9 all practiced hard for two weeks. Just do your best!” Her words calmed me down.
When the quiz began, the first question was for Lisa. The host asked, “Which country holds the Venice Film Festival every year ” She answered “Italy” at once. Then it was my turn. The host’s question was, “What is the capital of Canada ” I smiled because I’d reviewed this many times, and I said, “Ottawa!” The audience clapped, and I hoped to spot 10 doing well later in the video.
As the quiz went on, questions got harder. Once, I forgot the answer to a question about Brazilian landmarks. 11 it was hard to stay calm, I took a deep breath and recalled my notes. Finally, I got it right! Later, Lisa said, “I knew you could do it. Friends should support each other.”
In the end, Lisa won first place, and I got second. Ms. Wang gave us prizes. Lisa got a travel book, and I got a poster of famous film locations. Tom, another contestant, looked sad. Ms. Wang told him, “You did well today. Our school will hold more 12 like this, so you’ll have another chance.”
Last week, the cameraman showed us the edited quiz video. I noticed the host 13 always smiled when contestants answered questions. She made the show feel warm. I told my little brother about the quiz, and he said he wants to join one 14 he enters middle school.
This experience taught me a lot. It not only expanded my knowledge but also showed me the importance of teamwork. 15 , I used to think quizzes were just competitions. Now I know they’re a fun way to learn!

Last summer, I got a chance to work as a volunteer at a local TV station. I got this chance thanks to my uncle, who works as a cameraman there. My main job was to help prepare for a weekly quiz show. The show is called Travel & Know, and it is just like the one we talked about in English class. On my first day, I arrived early and followed my uncle to the studio. My heart was filled with 16 because I couldn’t wait to see how a real TV show was made.
The studio was busy. Lighting operators adjusted bright lamps, sound operators tested microphones, and a make-up artist fixed the host’s hair. My uncle told me, “We need to get everything ready in an hour.” After he said this, I nodded and started helping him carry some equipment. Just then, a woman from the crew ran over. She looked anxious and said, “One of the contestants fell ill and can’t come.” The director’s face turned serious, and he said, “We need someone to take her place. If we don’t find a replacement, the show can’t start on time!”
17 I’d never answered quiz questions on TV before, I raised my hand and said, “I can try!” The director looked at me for a second, then nodded. The make-up artist quickly pulled me to a chair and 18 some light make-up on my face. She said, “This will make you look better under the lights.” Her hands moved 19 because she needed to finish before time ran out.
Soon, I stood on the stage with two other contestants. The host, Mr. Lee, smiled and whispered to us, “Take it easy. Just speak clearly.” The show started, and the first question was about the Venice Film Festival. I remembered reading about it in our textbook, so I answered, “Italy!” The audience clapped, and I felt 20 than the moment I stepped on stage.
Later, a question about the Great Wall came up. I knew the answer, but my hand hesitated above the 21 on my desk. That button is used to signal that I wanted to answer. Mr. Lee noticed my hesitation and gave me a small nod. I pressed the button fast and got the answer right. By the end of the show, I’d won second place.
After the recording, the director patted my shoulder and said, “You did great! Would you like to 22 our show again next month ” I said yes without thinking. On the way home, my uncle laughed and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so brave.” I told him this experience made me feel alive.
This time at the TV station taught me that every role matters. From the cameraman to the sound operator, everyone plays a key 23 in making the show successful. Now, whenever I watch Travel & Know, I think of that exciting day. I even started a small quiz club at school. In the club, we practice answering questions about world travel. The club isn’t as grand as the TV show, but it’s just as 24 .
Last week, the TV station sent me a copy of the show. I watched it with my family. My little sister saw it and said she wanted to be on a quiz show too. I told her, “If you’re brave enough to try, you 25 gets the chance.”
16.A. excitement B. sadness C. anger D. shyness

Student’s Experience in a Campus Quiz Show
Last term, our school organized a “Travel Quiz” to enrich students’ after-school life. This quiz is just like the exciting programme I once read about. As someone who loves geography, I signed up immediately. But soon I realized it would be more challenging than I thought.
The preparation took three weeks. Every evening after finishing homework, I spent 90 minutes reviewing books about famous places. I reviewed things like the location of the Amazon Rainforest and the history of the Great Wall. My partner Lin Tao and I practiced quick responses too. He would read questions aloud, and I had to answer within 10 seconds. Sometimes we argued about unclear answers. For example, we once argued about whether the Sahara Desert is in northern or central Africa. When this happened, we always checked textbooks to confirm the correct answer.
On the day of the competition, the school hall looked like a real TV studio. Bright lights shone on the stage, and three desks were set for each team. Our host was Mr. Zhang. He wore a formal suit and spoke in a clear, loud voice. He was just like the host in the programme I read about. He explained the rules to us. He said, “Each team answers 12 questions. The first team to press the buzzer gets to answer. Correct answers get 10 points. Wrong answers lose five points.”
When the competition started, my hands were a little shaky. The first question was about Paris. I answered quickly, “It’s the capital of France, and it’s famous for the Eiffel Tower.” The audience cheered when they heard my answer. This made me more confident. Later, a difficult question came. The host asked, “Which country holds the Venice Film Festival every year ” I hesitated for a second, then remembered what I’d read. I answered “Italy!” That answer won us another 10 points.
In the end, our team got second place. Although we didn’t win first, I felt proud. This experience taught me two important things. First, preparation is key. Second, teamwork makes a big difference. Now, whenever I watch quiz shows on TV, I can better understand how the contestants feel.

A Day in the Life of a TV Studio Crew
Mike works as a cameraman at a local TV station. His job is much busier than most people think. This is especially true on days when they record quiz shows. His typical workday starts at 6:30 a.m. The recording doesn’t begin until 10 a.m., but he needs to arrive early to prepare.
First, Mike checks his equipment. He tests the camera’s lens to make sure it’s clear. He also makes sure the battery is fully charged. Besides that, he checks the cables to avoid technical problems. He often says, “One small issue with the camera can stop the whole recording.” After checking his equipment, he works with the lighting operator Lisa to set up the lights. They need to make sure the stage is bright enough for the camera. But they also have to make sure it’s not too bright, because that would make contestants uncomfortable. Lisa explains, “We usually adjust the lights three times before we’re satisfied with the brightness.”
At 9 a.m., the sound operator Tom joins them. Tom’s job is to test the microphones for the host and contestants. He walks around the stage and speaks into each microphone. He does this to check if the sound is clear. Tom says, “If the audience can’t hear the answers, the show is meaningless.” While Tom is testing the microphones, the make-up artist Mary helps the contestants get ready. She applies light make-up to the contestants’ faces to make them look good on camera. She also brushes their hair neatly.
When the recording starts at 10 a.m., Mike stands behind his camera. He focuses on the host and contestants the whole time. When the host walks around the stage, Mike has to move the camera smoothly to follow him. When contestants answer questions, Mike needs to zoom in on their faces to capture their expressions. He says, “I have to stay focused for hours. Even a small shake of the camera will look bad on TV.” Once, a contestant suddenly cried after winning the quiz. Mike quickly zoomed in to capture that touching moment.
The recording usually ends at 1 p.m. But Mike’s work isn’t done yet. He helps pack up the equipment. After packing, he checks the equipment again to make sure it’s in good condition for the next day. Mike says, “It’s tiring work, but I love seeing the final show on TV. It makes all the hard work worth it.”
30.What time does Mike start his workday
A. At 1:00 p.m. B. At 9:00 a.m.
C. At 10:00 a.m. D. At 6:30 a.m.
31.Who helps Mike set up the lights
A. Tom, the sound operator B. Lisa, the lighting operator
C. Mary, the make-up artist D. The show’s host
32.Why does Tom test the microphones carefully
A. To make contestants feel comfortable
B. To avoid making the stage too noisy
C. To ensure the audience can hear clearly
D. To help the host speak more loudly
33.What does Mike do during the recording

C. He captures the right moments with his camera.

International Film Festivals You Should Know
When people talk about entertainment, international film festivals are always a hot topic. These events have two important roles. First, they show the latest films from around the world. Second, they bring together famous actors, directors and film lovers. Here are three famous international film festivals you might be interested in.
The Venice Film Festival is held in Italy. It is the oldest international film festival, and it started in 1932. Every year in September, people from all over the world go to Venice to watch new films. The most important award at this festival is called the “Golden Lion”.

The Cannes Film Festival in France is another well-known international film festival. It takes place in May every year. This festival is different from some other festivals. It focuses more on artistic films instead of commercial ones. The top award at the Cannes Film Festival is the “Palme d’Or”, which means “Golden Palm” in English. During the festival, the streets of Cannes are filled with movie stars. Many reporters wait on the streets too, because they want to interview these stars. The Cannes Film Festival is also a great place for young directors. It gives them a chance to show their works to the world.
In China, the Shanghai International Film Festival is a big event in the film industry. It was founded in 1993, and it is held in June each year. This festival has a clear purpose.

An Unexpected Moment in a TV Show Recording
Last Saturday, I went to a TV station with my mom. My mom works as a sound operator there, and she invited me to watch the recording of a quiz show. The show is called “Knowledge Challenge”, and I was excited to see how a TV show is made.
When we arrived, the studio was already busy. The host was practicing his lines to make sure he didn’t make mistakes. The cameramen were adjusting their equipment to get the best shots. Three contestants were sitting at their desks. They looked nervous, but they also looked excited. My mom told me about the contestants. She said they had prepared for months. They studied history, science and travel to make sure they could answer the quiz questions.
The recording started at 2 p.m. At first, everything went smoothly. The host asked questions like “Which planet is known as the Red Planet ” and “What is the longest river in the world ” The contestants answered these questions quickly. The audience clapped loudly after each correct answer. But 30 minutes later, something unexpected happened. One of the contestants, a girl named Lucy, suddenly held her head. She said she felt dizzy. The host stopped the show immediately. A doctor from the station came to check on Lucy. After checking, the doctor said Lucy had low blood sugar. The reason for this was that she forgot to eat lunch.
The director looked worried. He knew they needed three contestants to continue the show. Just then, a young woman raised her hand. She said, “I can take her place!” This woman was named Emma, and she worked as an assistant in the station. She also said, “I’ve watched this show many times, so I know the rules.” The director agreed to let Emma join. The make-up artist quickly helped Emma get ready for the show.
Emma did surprisingly well. She answered most of the questions correctly. Even the difficult questions about international film festivals didn’t stop her. In the end, she won third place. After the show, I asked Emma why she decided to join. She smiled and said, “I’ve always wanted to try being a contestant, but I was too scared. Today’s accident gave me a chance. I’m glad I took it!”
This experience taught me something important. Sometimes unexpected moments can bring new opportunities. It also made me realize how much work goes into making a TV show. Everyone from the host to the assistants plays an important role in the show.

A. She was too nervous about the competition.

Behind the Scenes of a TV Quiz Show
Have you ever watched a TV quiz show and wondered how it’s made Many people only see the final show on TV. But there’s a lot of work that happens behind the scenes to make the show successful. From planning to recording, every step needs careful preparation.
First, the team has to plan the show’s content. The writers spend weeks creating questions. These questions need to be both interesting and challenging. The writers also need to make sure the questions cover different topics. They choose topics like travel, history and science. This way, the questions can test the contestants’ knowledge well. 41 For example, a question about “the city of Paris” might include facts about its landmarks and culture. It won’t just ask about Paris’ location.
Next, the team looks for contestants. They usually ask people to apply online. After getting applications, they hold interviews to choose the right contestants. 42 They don’t just pick people who know a lot of knowledge. Personality matters too. They want contestants who are confident. They also want contestants who can think quickly and are friendly to the audience. Sometimes, the team even asks contestants to practice answering questions before the recording. This practice helps contestants feel more comfortable on the show.
On the day of the recording, the studio becomes a busy place. The lighting team sets up bright lights. Their goal is to make sure the stage looks good on camera. 43 They have to be careful with the lights. They need to make sure the lights don’t make the host or contestants squint. They also need to make sure the lights don’t make the host or contestants look too dark. At the same time, the sound team tests the microphones again and again. They do this to avoid any sound problems. Meanwhile, the make-up artist helps the host and contestants look their best. The make-up artist applies light make-up to the host and contestants. This make-up can reduce shine from the lights. The make-up artist also brushes their hair neatly.
During the recording, everyone works together closely. The director sits in the control room. He or she watches the show on multiple screens. When it’s needed, the director tells the cameramen to zoom in on a contestant. The director also tells them to pan to the audience sometimes. 44 The host has a script to follow. But the host also needs to be flexible. This way, the host can handle unexpected moments. For example, if a contestant makes a mistake, the host knows how to keep the show going smoothly. The host might use a friendly joke to lighten the mood.
After the recording, the work isn’t done. The editing team takes over. They cut the show to the right length. They also remove any mistakes from the recording. Besides that, they add music or sound effects to make the show more interesting. 45 This editing work helps make sure the show is enjoyable and easy to follow for viewers. Finally, the show is ready to be broadcast on TV. Viewers can enjoy the exciting quiz show then. But they won’t know all the hard work behind it!
A. They don’t just pick people who know a lot—personality matters too.
B. This helps make sure the show is enjoyable and easy to follow for viewers.
C. The questions aren’t just simple facts; they often include interesting details.
D. The host follows a script but also needs to be flexible to handle unexpected moments.
E. They have to make sure the lights don’t make the host or contestants squint or look too dark.

Last weekend, our school’s TV club organized a Travel and Culture Quiz. This quiz is just like the exciting programme we’ve learned about. From planning to recording, every step needed teamwork. I was lucky to be part of the crew as a s (46) assistant.
A few days before the quiz, we started preparing. I helped the cameraman check his equipment c (47). We tested the lens to make sure it was working. We also checked the battery and made sure the cables were connected properly. The make-up artist told me about her preparation. She said she’d bring light m (48) to help contestants look good on camera. She explained that the bright studio lights might make their faces look shiny, so the make-up was necessary. Meanwhile, the host of the quiz was our classmate Lily. She practiced her lines again and again to avoid making mistakes.
On the day of the quiz, the school hall was crowded with students. When the show started, I stood backstage. I felt a bit nervous because I was in charge of passing microphones to contestants. At first, everything went smoothly. Contestants answered questions about famous places correctly. The questions included “Which country is home to the Great Wall ” and “Where is the Venice Film Festival held ” But halfway through the show, one contestant’s microphone stopped working. I quickly ran over to give him a new one. Thankfully, I’d prepared an extra microphone just in case this kind of problem happened.
After the quiz, the director praised all of us. He said the show was a success because everyone did their part. Lily, the host, said she was happy she’d practiced so much. The make-up artist laughed and said the c (49) smiles made her work easy. I felt proud too. This experience taught me that good preparation and teamwork are key to s (50) . Now, whenever I watch TV quiz shows, I can better understand the hard work behind them.

A Great Class Travel Knowledge Quiz
Last Wednesday, our class held a Travel Knowledge Quiz during the class meeting, and it was one of the most interesting activities we’ve had this term.
We were divided into four teams. Each team had to answer questions about world travel and famous landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower and the Great Wall. The questions were challenging but fun. My team worked together, discussing answers and sharing knowledge. Although we didn’t win first place, we learned a lot about different countries and cultures.
I enjoyed the quiz very much. It was not only exciting but also educational. I realized that teamwork is very important. I hope our class can have more activities like this in the future!
