Fred was a young soldier in a big camp. During the week they always worked very hard, but it was Saturday, and all the young soldiers were free, so their officer said to them, "You can go into the town this afternoon, but first I am going to inspect ( )you." Fred came to the officer, and the officer said to him, "Your hair is very long, go to the barber( ) and then come back to me again." Fred ran to the barber's shop, but it was closed because it was Saturday. Fred was very sad for a few minutes, but then he smiled and went back to the officer. "Are my boots clean now, sir?" he asked. The officer didn't look at Fred's hair. He looked at his boots and said, "Yes, they're much better now. You can go out, and next week, first clean your boots, and then come to me!" One Thursday evening Mr. Watson left his car in front of his house as usual, but when he came down next morning to go to his office, he found that his car was missing. He called the police and told them what had happened. He also asked them whether they help to find the car for him. When Mr. Watson came back from his office that evening, the car was in the usual place outside the home. He examined it carefully to see whether it was broken and found two tickets on one of the seats, and a letter which said, “We are sorry we took your car because of something important. The two tickets are for you to enjoy yourselves at the weekend.” Mr. and Mrs. Watson went to the theatre with the two tickets on Saturday night and they had a good time. When they got home, they found that thieves had taken almost everything they had in their home. Mr. Watson usually went away from his car on Thursday night.
