evening I had to prepare myself for an examination at school. I was working in thebasement at
my table when my parents went to the city to go shopping. Suddenly, I heard steps on the floor
above me. I knew there was actually nobody in the house besides me. What could I do? I was
terribly frightened because I knew that it must a burglar. We had the windows open to air the
room, so it must be burglar. What could I do? I remembered that I had a toy gun in my cupboard,
so I decide to take the toy gun and go upstairs. Well, I took the toy gun, went out of my room, and shouted as if there was another person, “ George, take the dog and go outside.” On my way
upstairs, I turned on lights. The burglar must have heard me, and he rushed out of the window the way he came in.
Well, I was relieved, and then I tried to phone my parents, but I was so terribly frightened that I wasn’t able to dial the number.
