In a small town far away, a man stole some money from a house.The police began to look for the thief, and they found him in two days.They brought him to the police station and found some of the money in his coat.
There was a new policeman at the police station, and they wanted to give him some work.
“Take this thief to the city,”said one of them.“You must go there by train, and it goes very soon.Don’t be late.”
The policeman and the thief set out along the road to the station.On their way they came to a shop.In this shop bread was sold.
“We have no food, and we must eat something in the train”.said the thief,“It’s a long way to the city and it will take a long time.I’ll go into this shop and buy some bread.Then you and I can eat it in the train.Wait here for me.”
The policeman was glad.“I’ll have some food in the train,”he thought.“Be quick,”he said to the thief.“We haven’t much time.”
The thief went into the shop, and the policeman waited in the street for a long time.But then he began to think about the train, and at last he went into the shop.
“Where’s that man who came in here to buy some bread?”asked the policeman.
“Oh, he went out of the back door,”said the shopkeeper.
The policeman ran out of the back door, but he could not see the thief.He ran down the road but he could not find him.So he had to go back to the police station and tell the others about it.They were very angry with him and he was very unhappy.
All the police of the town began to look for the thief again, and they soon caught him.They brought him back to the police station and called the same policeman.
“Now,”said one of them angrily,“take him to the city, and don’t lose him again!”
The policeman and the thief set out again along the same road to the station, and they came to the same shop.
“Wait here,”said the thief.“I want to go into that shop and buy some bread for our journey.”
“Oh, no,”said the policeman.“You did that before, and you ran away.This time, I’ll go into the shop and buy the bread, and you must wait here for me.”

An old man was going home late one night with his horse and cart after a day's hard work.When he was not far from his house, the light on the cart went out.He tried but could not mend it.
He was near his home, and so he went along the road without a light.When a policeman saw this, he stopped the old carter.
“Where's your light?”asked the policeman.“No one may take a cart along a road at night without a light.You know that.You've broken the law.”
“I had a light,”said the old man,“but it has just gone out.”
“I don't believe that story,”said the policeman.He took out a book and got ready to write.“What's your name and where do you live?”he asked.
“Please don't take my name,”said the old man.“My house is just there.You can see it from here.I had a light nearly the whole way.I haven't come far without a light.”
“You came all the way without a light.What's your name?”
The carter quickly took the policeman's hand and put it down on the top of the light.The light was still hot, and burnt the policeman's hand.He jumped and he was very angry.
“Now, what do you think?”said the carter.“Did I come all the way without a light?”

“Hey, Sheba,”she said,“I've got no time for you now, but I'll take you out as soon as I get back from tennis club.”Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking.Obviously, she could hardly breathe.Immediately, Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet(兽医).
When she got there, the vet was just about to close for the day.Seeing the state of Sheba, Dr.Sterne brought her quickly into his office.
“Listen, doctor, I'm really in a rush to get to a meeting, can I leave her with you, and go and get changed?I'll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then I'll take her on to the meeting with me.Is that OK?”
“Sure.”said the doctor.
Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes.As she was once more entering the hallway, the phone by the door began to ring.
“This is Dr.Sterne,”said an anxious voice.“I want you to get out of that house immediately,”said the doctor's voice.“I'm coming round right away, and the police will be there any time now.Wait outside!”
At that moment, a police car screeched(发出尖锐的声音)to a stop outside the house.Two policemen got out and ran into the house.Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened.Then the doctor arrived.
“Where's Sheba?Is she OK?”shouted Joanne.
“She's fine, Joanne.I took out the thing which was choking her, and she's OK now.”
Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man, who could hardly walk.There was blood all over him.
“My God,”said Joanne,“how did he get in there?And how did you know he was there?”
