A very interesting thing happened to me last year．

One night, long after most people had gone to bed, a friend of mine and I went home happily through the quiet street．We had   1   to a musical show（音樂會）and were talking about the people we had seen and heard in it．

"The show made him   2   overnight（一夜之間）．"My friend said about one of them．" He was unknown before．And now thousands of people   3   him presents and letters．" "I     4   him quite good．" I said, "but not worth thousands of letters．In fact, one of his   5   gave me a shock（震驚）．It gave people too much   6  ．" "What was that?" my friend asked me,"  7  it to me．" I began to sing at the top of my voice．"Oh, no, you will give everybody a shock and   8   them up for kilometers round．Maybe there will be a policeman  9   us．" "Never mind．" I said and  10  singing．

Just at that time there came a policeman   11   in front of me with his note book open．

"  12  , sir," he said, "you have a very good voice, who taught you to sing? I'd very much 13   to find someone who can give my daughter singing lessons, she likes it very much．Would you be  14   enough to tell me your name and  15  ? Then my wife and I will visit you and we can talk about it．"

“It’s 8:15 on a Sunday morning,” said the officer, Tidwell, “and this sort of thing seems an unlikely adventure(冒險) at such a time. Would you mind explaining?”

   The man was astonished(吃驚的) at the voice from behind. He turned about and said, “I know what you’re thinking, officer, but it isn’t true. It’s a very funny mistake.”

   “I think you’ve just left this house in a manner rather than the usual one. That may be quite all right, but I’d like to make sure.” Tidwell took out his notebook and a pen. “Name, address and occupation and then, please tell me your story.”

    “Charlie Crane, lorry(卡車) driver, from Nottingham, 51 Brecon Street. My story?”

    “Yes, What were you doing like a fly on that wall, Mr. Crane?”

    “Well, I had a breakdown yesterday and had to stay the night here. The landlady’s name is Mrs. Fern. She gave me breakfast at seven, and I was out of here in the right way and down at the lorry park by half past seven. It was only when I felt around for a cigarette that I realized I’d left $80 under the pillow(枕頭) here. It’s a habit I’ve got into. I even do it almost every day.”

    “I see. Why didn’t you miss it when you meant to pay Mrs.? What’s her name?”

    “I paid her last night. You’ve got to pay when you take the room, see? So I came rushing back, but it’s Sunday, and she’d gone back to bed. I rang the bell and banged on the front door for ten minutes before I came round here. Up I went this pipe(管子) and the money was still there. You know the rest, and I hope you believe it because….”

   “Mr. Crane, whatever are you doing here? I thought you’d gone an hour ago.” It was Mrs. Fern.
