Question

It was Sunday. Henry did some shopping and then went to the car park. He was about to start the car when a robber(強盜) stood up from the back seat. He held a knife to Henry's head. “Give me your money and drive me to North Street.” he shouted.

“All right,” Henry answered. Then he started the car and drove away. Being 72 years old, he knew he could not fight the young robber. He knew he needed help. Where were the police? As he drove towards each crossing, he looked up and down the side streets, and hoped that he could meet a police car. But he could see none. “Just my luck,” he thought. “If I was driving too fast, there would be a police car on every corner.”

So he pushed his foot down on the accelerator(油門), and the car ran much faster. “What are you doing?” shouted the robber. “Keeping off the police,” Henry answered. “I thought I saw a police car back there.”

He ran red lights, drove the wrong way on one-way streets. On two-way streets he drove on the wrong side of the road. Not one policeman saw him. Again Henry’s plan was not working. He had to try a new plan.

He turned a corner and saw the police station in front. Then he drove his car as fast as he could towards the police gate. The car hit a police motorbike down and stopped. Henry shouted, “Help! Help!” and he tried to catch the knife which was in the robber’s hand. At that moment, the policemen heard the shouts and came out of the police station.
