Add articles from one category to a page/block

Hello. On a fresh installed drupal, you find the beginning of all new articles on the main-page. Is there a way to limit them to one category and put them into a block?
Or is there a way to put the beginning of all new articles from one category to a page, inside the text? Something like:

Beginning of the article...

There's actually several ways of doing this, I was giving you the easy one and the one I still use.
You absolutely can just create your own blocks at admin/build/block/add and use php there (don't forget to use the "PHP code" input format). Check the PHP Block Snippets page to see if there are any readily available snippets that do what you want.

Very often with Drupal there are multiple routes to the same destination.
