HOMEWORK
1) “Catherine cackled out loud and the inspector gave them their tickets. Then the man leant
over the stroller and addressed the contents. Minutes later, he stopped abruptly, as if he´d
seen a bomb inside the pram. He realized there was no baby in the pram. He started shouting
for help. Two or three policemen approached him and held Catherine tight not allowing her to
escape. The policemen checked the pram and found a box which looked suspicious there. They
put the box into a black bag and proceeded to take Catherine to the police-station”
