最坏的情况（TheWorstSituation）
最坏的情况（the worst situation）
at that night, father was very tired and went into sleep soon with his thundering snore. mother still kept herself busy and went bed at mid night. as usual, she lay on bed to plot her working plan tomorrow and dimly went to sleep later.
suddenly, a faint sound from ladder awaked her. she boosted up her strength and found a thief was silently coming down with a bundle of lit incense on hand. with constant incenses shaking to find his way, he passed the living room and directly went to the main hall as swift as a cat.
“here is a thief!” mother awaked my father in undertone. “what!” he woke up with a start and let out a cry. however, when he found the opened door and the darkness behind, he immediately went into a panic. his legs were shivering and couldn’t move. he had to hold a bamboo knight and swatted on the desk. “what a damnable…. thief! how dare…. you are….. to steal …..my possessions!” father shouted with a shivery tone.
the thief knew well my father’s inward weakness and completely ignored him. he was too busy helping himself to money to notice any warming. to unlock this deadlock, my mother realized the urgent need of other’s support. “help!” “help us to catch the thief!” she was shouting again and again.
the noise woke up one of my neighbors next door, deaf grocery’s landlady. she awoke her husband loudly: “get up quickly, deaf man! our neighbor is stolen!” she said. the deaf man rushed to the street and blocked our main gate, “how dare are your guy! come out and fight to me! i am challenging your devil.” he shouted with a shoulder pole shaking on hands.
heard a brave shouting and metallic chugging, the thief thought he had been besieged by police and hastily fled from the back door.
