(PUC-Rio - 2000)1On the way to the hardware store

(PUC-Rio - 2000)

1On the way to the hardware store my husband and I noticed that our 15-year-old son's bike was parked outside the drugstore - unlocked and unattended. We were thoroughly annoyed because during the past year, two of his bikes had been stolen.

2In the name of tough love, we tossed the bike into the back of the truck and continued with our errands. 2 Several hours later we returned home. Our 17-year-old daughter met us at the door with a cat-that-swallowed-the-canary look. "Mom and Dad, the police were here while you were gone," she reported. "Someone called in your license-plate number for stealing a bike from the parking lot at the drugstore."
