One evening in November, Dr. Berlin received a telephone call from Mrs. Green. "Please, Dr. Berlin, come to my house. I had 5000 dollars on my desk and now it is gone. "

Dr. Berlin arrived at Mrs. Green's house at eight o'clock. First he asked Mrs. Green, "When did you see the money last?"

"At seven o' clock. I put it on my desk in my living room. Then I went to wash my hair. I came back at seven thirty and the money was gone. "

"I see. " Dr. Berlin said. "Were you alone in the house?"

"No. My sister's son Jack is here, too. " Then Dr. Berlin and Mrs. Green went to Jack's room.

"Please, sit down," Jack said. Dr. Berlin sat on the only chair in the room, and the chair was cold. He also saw some books on the ground near his feet.

"What have you been doing this evening?" Dr. Berlin asked.

"I came home at six-thirty, and went right to my room. I've been sitting in that chair and reading all the evening. I never got up and I never left the room. Maybe somebody came into the house and took my aunt's money. "

After hearing that, Dr. Berlin was clear about who had taken the money.

"Get up, get up, Jim. It's time to get up!" my mother said while she was pushing me. I opened my eyes and looked at the clock. "Oh dear! It's a quarter to eight already. I'll be late for school again," I thought. I jumped out of the bed, washed my face, then hurried to the bus stop without breakfast. As soon as I got on the bus, it started running. "I'm sure I can get to the school on time," I said to myself. Suddenly the bus stopped. The bus driver got off the bus, then got on the bus again and said, "I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. There's something wrong with the bus. Please get off the bus and wait for another one. " "I couldn't wait. The school is not far. I'd better run to the school," I thought, and then I began to run. But before I got to the school, it began to rain hard.

I reached the classroom but I was wet shivering with cold. The physics teacher had already begun his lesson. It was Mr. Smith. He was about fifty years old. All the students were a little afraid of him and so was I. I liked neither him nor his physics lessons. I hesitated(犹豫)for a moment and then I opened the door. "I'm very sorry, Mr. Smith. I'm late again," I said with a red face.

"It's you again, Jim," Mr. smith said angrily. "I've told you not be late, but you…" he suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes. He turned to the class and said, "I'm very sorry, my boys and girls. " With these words he quickly took off his own jacket and handed it to me. "Now take off your wet coat and put this one or you'll catch cold," he said kindly.

I went to my seat with Mr. Smith's jacket on. It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found, for the first time, physics was so interesting and how well I could understand it!
