Answer 2

Marcus Jones was very lucky last weekend. He was cycling home from the city centre. It was snowing and the road was icy. Suddenly his bike slipped and he fell off onto the pavement. He picked up his bike off the road when he saw something in the sky. It was moving towards him very fast. He jumped back onto the pavement and the object hit the road. It was a piece of a meteorite. "I'm glad I wasn't standing there!" he told journalists later.
