Grammar 3B Taking part in the lottery is a form of gambling, but nowadays it seems to be quite acceptable. One reason is that it gives people something to dream about, but this seems quite unfair as in most cases the chances of winning are about a million to one. Of course, the lottery raises quite a bit of money and when – as is the case in the UK – this money is used for good causes, people seem to feel this is quite OK. In some countries the lottery has been going for quite a long time. For example, in the UK the national lottery started on 14 February 1994 – quite a romantic day! Some people have quite complicated systems for choosing their numbers while others simply pick at random. Whatever you might think of lotteries, they are here to stay for quite some time.

Suggested answer: Advert 1 does a better job. It has a more descriptive headline, gives more information about the item, and shows that the seller has looked after it well. The seller also speaks very positively about the item and his feelings about it, and is clearly sad to sell it. These personal touches help to create a sense of trust in the seller.
