15. Match the beginnings with the endings and say whether they are parts of a story or a newspaper report, justifying your answers. Think of suitable headings for the news reports.

BEGINNINGS…

ENDINGS

1) A newly-built medical centre collapsed in last night's hurricane. The Mary Rose Centre in Pinner, North London was completed only two months ago but is now only a heap of concrete and twisted steel.

A) Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as the police officers handcuffed the man and led him away. 11 couldn't believe what had just happened. We left I the restaurant as soon as we could after our jewellery and money had been returned to us.

2) We entered the busy restaurant at lunchtime. It was packed but we soon found a table and sat down. It was so noisy and crowded that we didn't notice the peculiar man sitting behind us.

B) Steven was taken to the local hospital where he was found to be suffering from shock. He later said, 'Til never climb anything so high again and I'll definitely stay away from birds' nests in future."

3) On a stormy day in September, Christopher left his home town-to go to university in another city. "Don't forget to call us when you get there!", his mum shouted as the train pulled away from the platform.

C) An investigation is currently being carried out to discover why the structure of the building was so weak. Details of this will be released in due course.

4) A 14-year-old boy was rescued from a cliff face in Hunstanton yesterday. The boy, Stephen Matthews, had climbed up the cliff to look at a bird, but got trapped. He was saved by a rescue team which managed to reach him by helicopter.

D) I looked up at the clock. It was 5 p.m. I gathered my things, put on my coat and walked to the lift. I felt tired and hungry, and I just wanted to get home. The doors of the lift opened and I stepped in. As it was going down, it stopped suddenly and the lights went out. It was stuck. "Why me?" I thought, as I angrily pressed the alarm button.

5) Rescuers are continuing their search for six men who have been lost at sea. Yesterday morning at 10:30 the cruiser Deep Blue sent out a distress signal to the coastguard and then disappeared from the radar screens thirty miles off the south-west coast of Ireland.

E) Brian Wilkins, who examined the wreck, said the Deep Blue had been "an accident waiting to happen" and should not have been at sea. Rescuers are continuing their search for the six missing crew members.

6) "Watch where you're going, lady!", the man shouted and quickly drove away. I held my umbrella tightly, stepped back, and waited for the traffic light to change. Somehow I knew this was going to be a miserable day.

F) Finally, after a long trip, he arrived at Middleton Station, tired and exhausted. He was glad that he had made it there alive.
