Lesson 8 Be Like Sherlock!

언어 형식

Is there something wrong?

Could you tell me when this happened?

 

 

The Missing Gold! 

 

Mr. Reese, the principal, ran across the wet playground. 

 

“Shirley! Shirley! I need your help!” 

 

Shirley was an eighth grade student at Bakersville Middle School. 

 

She was also the best detective in the whole town. 

 

“Is there something wrong?” asked Shirley. 

 

“Someone has stolen the gold medal for the talent show!” 

 

Mr. Reese took Shirley to the scene of the crime. 

 

There was a case with a broken window. 

 

The silver and bronze medals were still there. 

 

But the gold medal was missing. 

 

There was a poem in its place. 

 

Tomorrow is the talent show.

Where did the gold medal go? 

 

Look high and low.

You can’t catch me. You’re too slow. 

 

Shirley asked, “Could you tell me when this happened?” 

 

“A little after nine last night. 

 

I was making my rounds when I heard a scream. 

 

I rushed over and found Jocelyn and the case like this.” 

 

“I wonder who else was here last night.” 

 

“Sylvia and Harry. They were also practicing for the talent show. 

 

I’ll call them to my office.”

 

Jocelyn was a ninth grade student with short curly red hair. 

 

“I was practicing my song and I became thirsty. 

 

I stepped outside the classroom to get some water. 

 

It was completely dark. 

 

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of thunder. 

 

I think the thief broke the window at that moment. 

 

Lightning followed right after 

 

and it became bright for a second or two. 

 

Then I saw someone running away from the case.” 

 

“Did you see the thief’s face?” 

 

“No, I only saw the thief’s back. 

 

But the thief had short hair.” 

 

Next was an eighth grade student, Sylvia. 

 

She was tall with long black hair. 

 

She said, “I was reading my poem aloud in the classroom. I heard a scream and went outside. 

 

There was a girl next to the case. 

 

With the flash from the lightning, it was like a horror movie. 

 

I got scared so I ran straight home.” 

 

“Did you hear the window break?” 

 

“No, the thunder was too loud. 

 

Well, I didn’t do it. I was going to win first place anyway.” 

 

Harry, a seventh grader, had short blonde hair. 

 

He said, “Hey, you got the wrong guy. 

 

I was practicing my dance moves. 

 

I went home a little before nine. 

 

I didn’t take one step outside the classroom until then.” 

 

“Did you hear anything strange?” 

 

“How could I? My music was really loud.” 

 

“Did you see anyone on the way home?” 

 

“No, I heard someone singing really badly, but I didn’t see anyone.” 

 

Shirley said, “I don’t need to hear anymore.” 

 

Then she turned to the thief. 

 

“Why don’t you bring the medal back before you get into some real trouble?”
