I think a lot depends depends on what the items are. Would a user think to click on the text or headline for more details?

Are you linking to one thing, or two things? If you are only linking to the full article, I would think it's more clear to make the headline linkable, but not the partial body.

This looks like the typical CMS scenario today. Actually, I hate teasers where you have to click on a link to read the whole story. But it's a currently-popular style.

You might try using something like [...] as a link instead of "click to read more". Or you might explain in one place that users can click on headlines to see the full stories.

Users will PROBABLY get it if you make the headline clickable, and end the summary with "..." (clickable or not).

Finally, "more" is pretty unobtrusive, and gets right to the point.
