A Malaysian family was shocked to return home to find their house ransacked and a thief snoozing on the couch with his haul, reports said Sunday.
The burglar remained fast asleep surrounded by watches and jewelry worth 10,000 ringgit (US$3,220) as the family returned to their house in the northern state of Penang. More-over, the man managed to escape when police arrived.
He was arrested later nearby after police gave chase.
“They were shocked to find the living room in a mess and a car belonging to the suspect parked in front of the house,” Georgetown district police chief Gan Kong Meng was quoted by The Star newspaper as saying.
“When his wife went upstairs to check the bedrooms, she was surprised to find a stranger taking a nap in her son’s room,” he said, adding that the family immediately alerted the police.
Police could not be reached by AFP for comment.
Gan told the New Straits Times newspaper that the 42-year-old thief tested positive for drugs and had 14 previous convictions for criminal and drug-related cases.

In another application of artificial intelligence, a team of archaeologists from the Nazca Institute at the University of Yamagata in Japan, in collaboration with IBM Research, have discovered 303 new geoglyphs in the “Nazca” region of Peru. Though these figures are not nearly as large as their Nazca Lines counterparts, their discovery has helped enhance the understanding of the transition from the Paracas culture to the Nazca culture. The AI model, assisted by low-flying drones, was able to accomplish what the naked eye could not—quickly and accurately spotting the smaller relief-type geoglyphs in the desert area.

Dos & Don’ts — 想想看,這句話英語該怎麼說? 1. 王老師很負責,每天都準時到學校。 √ Miss Wang is conscientious. She comes to school on time every day. χ Miss Wang is very responsible. Every day she goes to school on time. 註︰一個人很認真、負責、敬業,英文通常用 conscientious 來表達,它的名詞是conscience(良心)。responsible 接在 be 動詞之後是指對某事負責,也可指做錯事時該負的責任,因此“她該負責”英文是 She is responsible for it.。如果某人很負責、值得信賴,可以託付重任,可說 She / He is a responsible person.。 2. 他個子不高。 √ He is not tall. χ His body is not tall. χ He is not high. 註︰high 通常指「物」的高大,tall 則指「人或細長物」的「高」。但講人的高度,有數字時可以說: He is six feet high. He is six feet tall. 3. 我能占用你幾分鐘嗎? √ Can you spare me a few minutes? χ May I occupy you a few minutes? 註︰spare:騰出,省下。不顧句型及前後文,只把學過的英文詞彙的中文解釋任意還原為英文時很容易造出這種中式的英文句子。 4. 讓我想想看。 √ Let me think it over. √ Let
