成寒部落格

One night a man was walking homewards when 

　　　　　　  

a thief jumped on him all of a sudden. 

　　Man and the thief were caught in a terrific tussle.  

They  rolled about  on the ground, and the man put 

up a tremendous fight, until at last the thief managed 

to get the better of him and  pinned him to the ground. 

　　The thief then went through the man's pockets and 

searched him all over. There was only a 25-cents coin 

he could lay his hands on.

　　The thief was so surprised at this that he asked 

the man why he had bothered to fight so hard just for a 

25-cents.

　　"Was that all you wanted?"  said the man, "I thought 

you were after the five-hundred  dollars  I've got in my 

shoe."
