Numbers

1. Write in words all the numbers from the following News Report.

Example: 182 – one hundred and eighty two;

1) It is feared that 182 people may have died in a plane crash on Wednesday, June 4. The accident happened at 7.20 a.m. It was Bel Air flight 409, going from Singapore to New York. The plane had covered ¾ of the 12,000 mile trip, and had stopped to refuel. Eye witnesses said that the plane had reached its take-off speed of 150 mph when a fire broke out in the rear engine. 106 people managed to escape the blaze. The hot-line number is 6020-477913.

2) 672 car workers walked out on strike today in Coventry. They had asked for a pay rise of 8-7%, but the management said they could only offer 5½ %. This would mean an extra £27.50 per week. A union spokesman said ‘It’s not enough.’
