BR 2-10: Quiz Night

I read ‘Quiz Night’. Rob Waring and Maurice Jamall wrote it. I chose this book, because I was interested in the title of this book. It was about a man who took part in Quiz Night. I am going to introduce this story roughly.

The main characters of this story were John and Ji-Sung. One day, John, Ji-Sung and Daniela talked about Quiz Night. They were interested in it. A winner of Quiz Night can get some pizza tickets. John said, “I love pazza!” Then Ji-Sung decided to take part in Quiz Night. He was a very smart parson, so John and Daniela thought that he may be win. Ji-Sung invited John to take part in Quiz Night together, but he was one of the questioners of Quiz Night. So he could not. When they were talking about Quiz Night, a girl was watching them. Her name was Gemma. She was going to take part in Quiz Night too. The next day, John and Mr. Becker were making some questions for Quiz Night in the library. Then Gemma came to them and she tried to look at the questions. She asked Mr. Becker, “What are you doing?” Then Mr. Becker hid the questions under his book. He said, “We are making questions for the Quiz Night. Please don’t look.” Then she left them. After that, she suddenly asked John, “John, do you want some money?” She wanted to know the questions of Quiz Night, so she tried to buy the Questions from John. John was very surprised and angry with Gemma. He did not like her. He never wanted to talk with her. Saturday was Quiz Night. Six people took part in the Quiz Night and they all wanted to win. Then, Quiz Night just started. John got the first ball and questioned to Yoon-Hee who was Ji-Sung’s sister. However, she could not answer, so she was out. Next girl could not answer nether and she was out. Mr. Becker asked Gemma the next question, “Gemma, what’s the name of the tall tower in Paris?” “It’s the Eiffel Tower,” she said. Mr. Becker said, “That’s right!” Next question was for Ji-Sung, and he could answer the question. Next boy could not answer the question and he was out. Gemma and Ji-Sung were very good. They got all their questions right. Then, John talked to everyone, “Well, there are only two people, Gemma and Ji-Sung. Who will win? We’ll now listen to some music. We’ll start the questions again in ten minutes.” Gemma and Ji-Sung went to their friends. John did not like Gemma, so he wanted Ji-Sung to win. He said, “Ji-Sung, what’s the capital of Thailand?” “It’s Bangkok,” Ji-Sung answered. It was the next question. When Ji-Sung knew about it, he was very angry with John and he said, “I can’t win now!” They went back to stage. Gemma could answer the next question. However, Ji-Sung said wrong answer. John was very surprised, because Ji-Sung knew the answer. As a result of it, Gemma won some pizza tickets. Ji-Sung went back to his friends. There were Mark, Daniela and so on. They comforted Ji-Sung. He was very angry with John and he said, “I can’t win everything! What do you think, John?” John put his head down and everyone looked at him. His face was very red. “Let’s all go and get some pizza,” said Daniela. However, John said, “Umm…, I’m not coming.” They were surprised, because John liked pizza. Ji-Sung was until angry with John.

This story was very interesting, but John looked little poor. John wanted to help Ji-Sung, but it was none of his business.
