Stick 'em up! 搶劫記

Mark and Kathleen were standing under an umbrella at the little neighborhood fruit stand. "All of this fruit will taste great! It'll also help us to beat the heat," Kathleen said.

"Great! What do you want to get? I prefer kiwis and watermelons, but anything is fine with me," Mark replied.

Kathleen was picking out her own favorites. "I'm going to get some strawberries and oranges. We'll ask the boss to help us cut them up and go eat them at your place."

"Fantastic!" exclaimed Mark. He reached for his wallet to get out the money for the fruit, but it was empty. "Oh no, we don't have any money!" he gasped.

Kathleen was not discouraged. "No problem. We'll just jog over to the bank and grab some cash. Let's go."

Mark followed Kathleen and they entered the bank, heading over to a teller machine.

"If I could only remember the password," Mark was saying to himself when there was a loud crash from the bank doors.

Mark and Kathleen, startled, turned toward the front door.

Three men with big sticks were moving through the bank. "Everybody freeze," one man yelled. "This is a stick up ..."

馬克和凱薩琳站在附近小水果攤的大傘下。凱薩琳說︰「這些水果想必很美味！也是清涼消暑的良方！」

馬克回答︰「太好了！你想要買什麼？我比較喜歡奇異果和西瓜，但其實都好啦。」

凱薩琳挑選著自己最喜歡的水果。「我要買草莓和柳橙。我想請老闆幫我們切好，再拿到你家吃。」

馬克喊著說︰「太棒了！」他伸手拿皮夾，想掏錢付水果，卻發現皮夾內空無一物。他倒抽了一口氣說︰「不！我們沒錢了！」

凱薩琳沒有因此感到沮喪。她說︰「沒關係，我們到銀行領錢就沒問題了。走吧！」

馬克跟著凱薩琳進了銀行，兩人走向提款機。

馬克自言自語說︰「假如我還記得密碼的話。」這時他聽到銀行大門傳來一聲巨響。

馬克和凱薩琳驚訝地轉向大門。

三名男子拿著大棍子走入了銀行。「通通不許動，」其中一名男子大叫︰「這是搶劫‥‥‥」
