A- Read the text. Answer the questions. Write complete sentences. Police Officer: Were you in the shopping centre all morning, Mel?

Mel: Well, I arrived there about ten o’clock. I was doing some shopping in the

department store.

Police officer: What did you see there?

Mel: I saw two girls – they where about fifteen.

Police officer: What were they doing?

Mel: They were putting some jewellery in their bags. They didn’t pay for it.

Police officer: What happened next?

Mel: I saw a security guard – he was watching the girls too. Then the girls started

running. The security guard chased them but he didn’t catch them – they were

running really fast.

Police officer: Can you describe the girls?

Mel: One of them was small and had blonde hair. She was wearing jeans and a red

jacket, and she was carrying a white bag. I think the other one was wearing black

trousers, but I can’t remember exactly.
