Read the text. The time is one o’clock in the morning.  The place is the Ritesville town art gallery.  A window opens and a man comes in. His name is Harry Black, and he is a thief.  It is dark in the art gallery, but Harry has a light. He looks across the room at a painting. [...]  “A million dollars for this?” he thinks. “I don’t understand it.”  But he takes a knife from his coat. Then he takes the painting very, very slowly from its frame.  Harry goes back across the room to the window, but he bumps into a table. There is a beautiful blue glass vase on the table. It falls on the floor and breaks into pieces. He runs across the pieces of glass to the window.  [...] Two policemen arrive quickly. “Let’s look at your shoe,” the two policemen say to Harry. Harry doesn’t understand. “What’s wrong?” he asks. One of the policemen takes the glass from Harry’s shoe. “This is a very expensive piece of glass,” he says. “From a very expensive vase. Remember?” Suddenly, Harry understands. “Oh, no!” he says. [...]
