The storylines in each question will lead you to a common word. One word with 3 different meanings. OK. Green can mean inexperienced, part of a golf course or a colour. Just read the story and find the word that is the link.

-1.He put down his copy of "The Tacoma Narrows Disaster" and picked up his cards. What to bid? No trumps? His brow furrowed as he tried to focus and he absentmindedly pushed his glasses back to the top of his nose. 6 letters

-2.She waited for the mail. Her father had subjected her to intense questioning last night about her future. It was hot and the temperature was climbing one point at a time. Would the mailman bring paperwork confirming she had graduated? 6 letters

-3.It didn't take long. He had the papers from her legal counsel. He then carefully informed her of the situation and left her sitting, gazing out of the window. 5 letters

-4.He sat in the church waiting for the minister to begin the ceremony. His mind wandered to the waitress at dinner last night and the excellent attention he had received. He had just returned from active duty and had been wearing his army uniform - maybe that had helped. 7 letters

-5.Well at least the valuable vinyl LP was now safe. He knew who had taken it. He even told the reporter unofficially that he knew the person had previous criminal convictions. 6 letters

-6.After she arranged all the new applications in correct order in the drawer, she took out the emery board and smoothed a corner of her nail. When she looked out of her window down onto the parade ground, she could see the recruits walking in a single line. 4 letters

-7.He could hear the sound of the old clock as he sat correcting the students' questions. As he checked each correct answer with a mark of his pencil, he worried about the small dog. He had removed the parasite from its ear but it was still sick. 4 letters

8.He adjusted the Windsor knot neatly under his collar. While he got ready for work he watched yet another Olympic event. As he leant down to tighten his shoelaces into a bow he heard cheering. The race had been declared a dead heat! 3 letters

-9.As he bent to drink from the water bubbling from the ground, he saw two small rabbits jump from the undergrowth. There were flowers everywhere. He loved the vernal equinox. 6 letters

-10.He saluted as the ensign was raised. When he turned and walked across the paving stones he felt his spirits fade. It had been a sad day. 4 letters
