This answer is correct. The report stated that the broomstick was impounded, meaning that it was taken from Trotter and is being kept by the police. The verb "to confiscate" shares a similar meaning with the verb "to impound". In most cases, "to impound" is used in legal contexts when something has been seized and retained (by an authority).
This is incorrect. The police received an "anonymous tip" from someone reporting the crime. This means that someone called the police to report the crime. There is no mention of Trotter confessing to the crime in this report.
This answer is correct. Apparently there was a "wizard-pigeon collision". When two things "collide" with each other they "bump" or "crash" into one another. Moira also says that the collision occurred in "mid-air" which means in "the middle of the air".
This is incorrect. Moira says in her report that "1 pigeon is killed every 2 hours" due to collisions with wizards, which suggests that accidents like this happen frequently.
This is incorrect. Moira describes how police discovered that the broomstick was "stolen". This means that the broomstick was taken from the owner without their knowledge or permission.

From the list below, select all the TRUE statements about the accident.
This is a true statement. Ray reports that on Highway One, there is "a multiple vehicle collision blocking traffic in both directions". A "collision" refers to the accident itself, and Ray's statement that traffic is "blocked" tells us that circulation on the freeway is being slowed or impeded. The term "traffic jam" describes this slow moving traffic.
This statement is false. Ray says that "several injuries have been reported along with at least one fatality, maybe more". Although he does not know the final figures, he knows that some people have been hurt and that there has been at least one death.
This statement is false. Ray Upton says that the traffic is blocked as "firefighters are trying desperately to reach the scene of the accident". The verb "to reach" describes the arrival at a spot or destination in this context. The firefighters have not yet arrived at the scene of the accident because of the cars blocking them. Firefighters, along with the police and paramedics are part of a group called "Emergency Services".
This statement is false. Ray Upton says that "at least one fatality" has been reported. A "fatality" is an injury resulting in death. "At least" one person was killed in this accident and maybe more. The term "fatality" is often used in the context of military conflicts, however we often hear the term on the news, nearly every night unfortunately.

In the text, we read that Bruno's car "collided with" a truck carrying boxes of products. "To collide with (a car)" is to crash into it or hit it. Also, Bruno did not "transport" any boxes himself, he had an accident with a truck which was transporting boxes.
This is a true statement. In the text, we read that "perfume shops all over Paris began to sell Delavigne fragrances." The expression "all over" refers to perfume shops "throughout" or "in many places" in Paris. This indicates that "several" or "many" stores sold Delavigne perfumes.
This is a true statement. Bruno "fell into a coma" and "woke up... in a hospital bed", which indicates that Bruno indeed was "hurt" or "injured" in a car accident.
