1. Caesar demands four virtues in his successor: fortitude, temperance, justice and wisdom.
2. Rangers – currently sixth in the third division – beat SPL Motherwell 2-0 in the League Cup.

Q. How does the writer’s sentence structure emphasise the unpleasant nature of the pub?
The man sat at a small, rickety table and peered through the gloom of the pub. It was smoky, damp and chilly and he wrapped his coat around him to keep out the cold. A green and white scarf fitted snugly around his neck. The door was wide open and the fire remained – as always – unlit. He took a sip of his beer. If the pub was too cold then the beer was too warm. It seemed they couldn’t get anything right.
Q. How does the writer’s sentence structure emphasise the impressive and surprising achievements of Arsenal Ladies?
There’s one London team who are closing in on a memorable quadruple. And it isn’t Chelsea.
With the season drawing to its close, a London football club can still win an unprecedented quadruple. They have battled through injury and suspension to talismanic players, dodgy refereeing that challenges the very nature of democracy, outrageous expectation and exhaustion. And still they keep going.
Step forward the amazing Arsenal Ladies. On Sunday they won the Uefa Cup, the equivalent of the Champions League, by drawing 0-0 at home to Umea IK, the world's top-ranked team, after a 1-0 win in Sweden. They have won the League Cup and have run away with the Premiership (three games to go, played 19, won 19, goal difference +100). All they need do is beat Charlton in the FA Cup final next Monday.
