Audience and Purpose

Texts A-D have been written for different audiences. Match up the intended reader or audience with the right text...
ALast week, a local schoolboy got more than he bargained for when he added his mother's rhubarb crumble to a tank of algae. The result if this bizarre experiment? A teacher described it in one word: 'Mayhem." The boy, aged 13, cannot be named for legal reasons. 
BLast week, I did a really interesting experiment in my school. I tried adding rhubarb crumble to a tank of algae. Do you know what algae is? It's a sort of moss that grows on the surface of ponds. After three days, I found that the algae was growing bigger and bigger. 
CDid I tell you that I did an amazing experiment in school last week? We were adding different things to tanks of algae to see what would happen. I added my mum's rhubard crumble. Well, that was a mistake! The algae grew absolutely enormous; it was bigger than Gavin's bike. 
DMy teacher suggested that I should describe my algae experiment to you, in the hope that you could shed some light on the results. The algae was from a pond in Haverwaite. About 50cm was used in a 5 litre tank of water. One standard portion on crumble was added.
