Summary Writing On returning home at about two in the morning. the writer rang the doorbell but failed to wake up his wife. After having put a ladder against the wall, he was climbing towards the bedroom window when a policeman called out. Answering him rudely, the writer told him he had forgotten his key. At this time, the shouting woke up his wife, who opened the window at the moment when the policeman started climbing the ladder after him. Composition Just as the policeman started to climb towards me, my wife woke up. She opened the window and looked out. At first she did not recognize me. She just took me for a thief. As she saw the policeman behind me, she called for help. Hearing my wife‘s cry, the policeman was assured that I was a thief. As a result, he pulled me down the ladder. But as he was about to take me to the police station, my wife was able to see me clearly and realized her mistake. Then she tried to explain to him who I was and asked him to release me. Finally the policeman believed her explanation. She apoiogized to the policeman, and then the policeman apologized to me, too. Quiz Part 1.
