Last week Mrs Smith was sleeping. Her husband was not at home. He was on business in Sydney. She was sleeping in her bedroom alone. Tom was sleeping in his room. At 2 o’clock in the morning, Mrs Smith heard some noise inside the house. She went out of her room. She thought that the cat dropped something.

When Mrs Smith got out of her room, she saw a man inside the house. He was stealing things from the house. Mrs Smith was not afraid. The man was short and slim. She caught the man. She knocked him down. She did not know what to do, so she sat on top of him.
