A selection of headlines from stories in the news. They use English in a way that you might think is intended to confuse but it's all perfectly clear to the native speaker.
The Olympic Games have kept the sub-editors busy over the past two weeks and there have been some marvellous examples of how to write punchy headlines. My favourite has to be from the Daily Mirror for their headline on a story that after winning his first gold medal, American sprint supremo Usain Bolt was pictured in his room partying with three members of the Swedish women's handball team until 3am. It read: 'He's A Fast Worker!' It brilliantly alluded to his athletic prowess and his reputation as a party animal.
Used idiomatically "a fast worker" is someone who gets on very well with the opposite sex.
