| One afternoon when lessons were over,
Peter and Paul left school. When the boys reached home, it was seven o’ clock.
It was dark outside, but there was a light inside their home and the door was
open. They knew their parents were both at work, so they were surprised to see a
man inside. They could see the man was looking for something. "He must be a thief," Paul said. "I’ll report to the police and you try to talk to him. Then Peter went inside while Paul quickly hurried off to telephone the police. When the man saw Peter, he looked frightened. Then he smiled and said, "You don’t know me, but I’m your father’s friend, he asked me to fetch (取) some money for him." In no time two policemen arrived. As soon as the man saw the policemen, he tried to run off. But he was stopped and caught by the policemen. Just then the boy’s parents returned. "Is this man your friend" one of the policemen asked the boy’s parents. "No!" said Peter’s father. "He is a thief. He wanted to steal my money. I’m glad you’ve caught him." |
