One afternoon, I was walking down the street when I saw my father’s new car.  1.   , but to my surprise, I saw a young woman driving instead. “She has stolen my father’s car,” I thought. So I quickly stopped a taxi and got in. I said to the driver, “Follow that new car in front,” and I told him why.

 2.  , so I asked him to call the police. Soon we heard the sound of a police car. The police told the woman to stop the car using a loudspeaker(喇叭). The taxi came to a stop, too. I got out right then and said to the woman, “This is not your car. It’s my father’s car.”

The woman smiled and said, “Oh, You’re Mr Johnson’s younger son, right? I’ve seen your photo in your father’s office.”

After hearing this, we called my father and he told us what she said was right. The police and taxi driver laughed.  4.  . It was both the first and last time I worked as a detective.
