作者:stephen    文章来源:互联网    点击数:    更新时间:2011-6-23 【我来说两句

 

'I don't know.Your mother wasn't ill.I saw her on Thursday and she was very well.Why did she die?I don' t understand.I want to find out.'
  Roger went across to the window and looked out at the gar-den.It was a beautiful summer morning.The sky was blue and the garden was green.It was all very quiet.His mother loved this garden.But Tom Briggs wanted the garden.And Roger wanted the garden,too.Roger felt worse and worse.
  'Your mother took sleeping tablets,'Dr Pratt said.'Did you know?On Thursday she had a new bottle of tablets,but I can't find it here in her room.'
  'I didn't know,'Roger said.'Very well.Let's go down-stairs and you can phone the police.'
  Roger went into the kitchen and made some coffee.Just then Diane came in with the dogs.
  'Roger,'she said.'Look,I'm sorry.I was angry and said some angry things.'
  'It doesn't matter,'Roger said.'Here you are,have some coffee.Dr Pratt is phoning the police.Did you know Mother took sleeping tablets?Well,the bottle is not in her room.'
  'What?I don't understand.'Diane took the coffee and be-gan to drink.Her eyes looked big and dark.
  Just then Dr Pratt came into the kitchen.'They're coming at once,'he said.'Diane—I'm sorry about your mother.'
  'Dr Pratt,I want to tell you about last night.Everyone was very angry…'
  'Be quiet!'Roger said quickly.
  'Diane never thinks before she opens her mouth,'he thought angrily.
  Diane did not look at Roger.'Last night Mother went to bed early because everyone…'
  'Don't tell me,'Dr Pratt said.'You can tell the police.'
  Roger's face went red.Suddenly he felt afraid.'The police are going to talk to everyone,and ask questions,'he thought.'And they're going to want answers.It's going to be very difficult.'He finished his coffee and stood up.
  'I'm going upstairs,'he said.'I'm going to tell Uncle Al-bert and Jackie about Mother…and about the police.'
