款待Treat
As a rookie in the Atlantic City, N.J., Police department, I was
assigned a beat on the boardwalk. Hardly a day went by when I
didn't come upon a child who had become separated from his
parents.
One afternoon, I spotted a small boy standing alone, obviously
lost. I tried to gain his confidence - I took him to the nearest
ice- cream stand and bought him a cone. Time passed with no sign of
the boy's parents, so the next step was to call for a patrol car to take
him to headquarters. I told the small fry to stay put while I went to
the call box. When I returned, he was nowhere in sight.
Within minutes, the car arrived, and one of the patrolmen
asked me where the child was. I felt stupid; it's humiliating to say
you've lost a lost child. But I told the officers what had happened
and gave a description of the boy.
one of the men.
answered the officer, kid lives only a few
blocks from here, and you've about the fifth rookie he's conned for a
treat!
