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

Marta: Hello, Mario! Have you seen my socks? I can't find them anywhere. Mario: Hmmm, your blue socks, you say? No, I haven't seen them around here. Have you looked for them in the drawer? Marta: Yes, I checked the drawer and the wardrobe, but they're not there. I'm going crazy looking for them. Mario: They might have got lost in the washing machine. Sometimes, it mysteriously swallows them. Marta: Oh no, not the washing machine again? It seems to have a voracious appetite for socks. We should put up a sign warning about it. Mario: Hahaha, yes, that could be the solution. But seriously, check it. Maybe they're in the drum or something. Marta: Good idea, I'll go take a look.

I'll be right with you...
