B As soon
as they discovered this, soldiers blocked off the street and experts destroyed
the *** (1) with a controlled explosion.
C They only believed him when they saw the story on TV later.
D Yesterday, West Yorkshire Police praised 15-year-old Andrew Webster
of Leeds for the way he reacted to a *** (1) he found on his
early-morning paper round recently.
E Immediately after Andrew’s call, the police contacted an Army *** (1)
disposal team, who found that it was a sophisticated fire *** (1), with
a special mechanism to make it go off if anyone tired to move it.
F Afterwards, Army scientists took the remains away for examination.
G Then he left the phone booth and delivered the rest of his
newspapers.
H Andrew spotted a woman’s handbag in a telephone kiosk near the
newsagents he worked for in Roundhay Road, Leeds.
I Finally, when he got to school, Andrew told all his friends about
the *** (1). Of course, they laughed at him.
J Next he dialed 999 from the same call box and told the police
about the *** (1). They said they’d come and investigate immediately.

return it to the owner, but he got a shock when he looked inside the bag.

In the first picture I can see a mother and her two sons on a beach. They are wearing light summer clothes so I think the weather is warm and sunny. I am sure they feel happy and relaxed.

Перевод: На первой фотографии я вижу мать и двух ее сыновей на пляже. Они одеты в легкую летнюю одежду, поэтому я думаю, что погода теплая и солнечная. Я уверен, что они чувствуют себя счастливыми и расслабленными.
На втором снимке изображены шесть человек, которые выглядят так, словно находятся на лыжном отдыхе где-то в горах. Все они одеты в теплую одежду, такую как лыжные костюмы, шапки и перчатки, и вы можете видеть снег, поэтому там должно быть холодно. Я думаю, что они, вероятно, чувствуют себя взволнованными, потому что они катаются на лыжах.

Temperatures will remain average for this time of year with highs of 28 degrees in some areas. And that is the end of the weather forecast. Good night.
Перевод: Добрый вечер. Вот прогноз погоды на завтра, 28 августа.
