After I graduated (毕业) from the police school, I could not wait to play my part in saving the world. On my first day, however, I found out that I still had a lot to learn.

I felt excited that day and arrived at the police station early. At 7 a.m., I went into my office. It was a nice morning. I introduced myself to my colleagues (同事) and nothing special happened.

It was not until lunchtime that we received a call. An alarm had gone off at a building. This could be a theft—the first of my Job! I arrived at the scene with a colleague of mine. We found a company building. It was all locked up. The building was surrounded (围绕着) by a two-meter-high fence with razor wire (刺钢丝) on the top.

The owner was away. My colleague called him to ask how we could get inside. I offered to help. I climbed the fence and got up to the top after a few minutes. I was trying to get my leg over the razor wire when my jeans got snagged (钩住).

I heard my colleague say, “Hey! Spiderman!” I looked down and saw that the owner had arrived. They opened the gate and went inside while I had to try to free myself.

When we finally got back in the car, my colleague smiled at me and said, “We learn something new every day.” I knew it was his polite way of saying, “You silly rookie (新手)!”

A British girl, Taryn Everdeen, has just finished writing a novel(小说)with her favorite writer, Carolyn Meyer, even though she is 66 years younger than her.

Taryn was only 15 years old, when she first wrote a fan letter to a 81-year-old Carolyn Meyer, to give thanks for her historical novels.

“Carolyn was one of my favorite writers. I grew up reading her books. When I was nine or ten, I would listen to her stories every night…That made me fall in love with history,” says Taryn.

Taryn, who is from Norwich, England, was then surprised when Carolyn wrote back and suggested writing a novel together.

Carolyn is an American writer who writes novels for children and young people. She has published(出版)over 60 children books, but she has never wanted to work with another writer until she got Taryn's letter.

Three years ago, after Taryn wrote to her, Carolyn invited the young girl to stay with her in the US, so they could write a novel together. They decided(决定)to write a time-traveling story. They sent ideas to each other by email. Carolyn also visited Taryn last year, and Taryn flew to the US over the summer, after she finished her school exams.

They now have a first draft(初稿)of "Mirror of Time". They decide to give it to some publishers and hope they will be interested in it.

"This is my first try at writing a novel. We have been working on it for three years. It's amazing, " says Taryn. And I have never met anyone like her. "She seems much younger than her age. I think she is a really powerful role model(有影响力的榜样). She's my teacher, and my work partner, but I see her as a friend more than anything else."

Taryn, now 18 years old, returns from the USA this week. She wants to have a gap year(间隔年)before starting university next year.

“We worked hard, but we did other things together, too. While I was there, we went to a few theatre shows, and we went on a journey to Taos, staying in a hotel overnight there."

"She's very open, and I can talk to her about pretty much all the things I talk to my other friends about,” she says. "She has taught me how to be a better writer."
