Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- What do you think of this dress? - It's very pretty. - What do you like exactly? - Hmm... everything. I like the style, I like the colour. Blue always suits you. - I agree! And what about the length? It's not too short? - Not at all, I think the length is perfect: it shows off your legs. - And the neckline isn't too low? - No, everything is very nice... So, are you going to buy it or not? - I don't know, I'm not sure yet.
