try out this..

Code:
NoOfWords=0
while read LINE
do
        NoOfWords=`echo $LINE|wc -w|awk '{print $1}'`
        #echo "NoOfWords : [$LINE][$NoOfWords]"
        if [ "$NoOfWords" -eq "1" ]
        then
                echo "$OutString " " $LINE"
        elif [ "$NoOfWords" -eq "10" ]
        then
                OutString=`echo $LINE|awk '{printf "%s %s", $10,$4}'`
        elif [ "$NoOfWords" -eq "11" ]
        then
                OutString=`echo $LINE|awk '{printf "%s %s %s", $11,$4,$5}'`
        fi
done < Filename

Note : instead of Filename, you have to give the input filename.
