Sam woke up suddenly. Someone was moving around in the next room. “Maybe it’s grandma, getting a glass of water,” he told himself. But the next room was the living room. It wasn’t near the kitchen. Sam’s parents were away, and there was only grandma in the house with him. He looked at his watch-three thirty! Too early for grandma to get up!
He got out of bed and opened the door very quietly. The window was open-wide open. Standing near it was a man, looking in the desk drawers. Grandma kept her money and papers there!
He thought quickly. Yes, the radio! He turned in on and a man’s voice filled the room. Frightened, the thief dropped grandma’s papers. He jumped out onto the balcony(阳台). Then he jumped down two floors to the ground. He gave a shout. His leg was bent under his body.
Grandma was awake and she phoned the police at once. The thief couldn’t get up, because his leg was broken.
When the police came, they were very pleased. “well done, Sam,” said the police officer. “This is a well-known thief.” Then he said to Sam’s grandma, “You should keep your money in a bank!”
