Mr. Clark lived in a small town. When he finished his middle school 42 years ago, he found a job in a police station. He'll retire(退休)this autumn. He worked hard but he wasn't a lucky man and never caught a thief(抓住小偷). He is often sorry for it.
Last weekend, Mr. Clark found there was no sugar. So he went to the shop to buy some. He came in the shop and found a young man stealing(偷) some money from a woman's bag. He ran towards the. thief quickly, but the young man saw him and ran away at once. Luckily Mr Clark caught him.
"Please give me a chance(机会), sir, "said the young man.
"Who will give me a chance?" said Mr. Clark. "I'll soon retire and I never caught a thief before!"
