   Ever since Jonathan had set up a house in Compton Street, he had looked after it very carefully. He worked hard in the garden every Sunday and set out to impress the neighbours with his flower beds and lawn. (草地) Before he left the house in the mornings, he carefully closed all the doors downstairs, opened some windows to let the air in and locked the front gate. Everything Jonathan did was tidy and systematic.

    One summer evening Jonathan returned home as usual at five minutes to seven precisely (正好). When he opened the front gate, he immediately noticed something strange. There was a heavy footprint in the earth in one of the flower beds. Jonathan was just going to blame the milkman or the postman when he noticed that one of the curtains in the front room downstairs was out of place. Jonathan never left anything out of place.

    He walked up to the front door and opened it quietly. The front-room door was half-open. Jonathan studied it thoughtfully, wondering if he had forgotten to close it that morning. He had never forgotten before. He stepped silently across the hall to the door and looked inside the room. The shadow of a man was clearly reflected (反*)on the far wall in the evening sunlight. He had obviously been standing behind the door since Jonathan’s return. Jonathan grasped the door-handle, slammed(猛推) the door and turned the key. Then he calmly picked up the telephone in the hall and set about calling the police.

    Three minutes later the police arrived. Jonathan was a little annoyed that he had to have dinner later than usual, but on the whole he felt quite pleased with himself.
