The Stolen Car
Last month John’s car was stolen in Toronto. The front window was
smashed by the thief, and the car was driven out of the city. It was kept in an abandoned lot for a week. Finally the window was repaired and it was sold on the black market to a used car dealership. Soon, it was bought by a young man who drove it out west to visit his family. In Alberta the young man was pulled over for speeding. The car was seized by police because the license plate indicated it was stolen. Finally the car was returned to John. He couldn’t believe all the crazy things that had happened to his car.

Câu chuyện về chiếc xe bị đánh cắp.
Tháng trước, xe của John đã bị đánh cắp ở Toronto. Cửa sổ phía trước đã bị kẻ trộm đập vỡ, và chiếc xe được điều khiển ra khỏi thành phố. Nó đã được giữ trong một khu đất bị bỏ hoang trong một tuần. Cuối cùng, cửa sổ đã được sửa chữa và nó được bán trên thị trường chợ đen cho một đại lý ô tô đã qua sử dụng. Chẳng mấy chốc, nó được một thanh niên lái xe đi miền Tây thăm gia đình mua lại. Ở Alberta, người thanh niên đã bị tông vì chạy quá tốc độ. Chiếc xe bị cảnh sát thu giữ vì biển số cho thấy nó đã bị đánh cắp. Cuối cùng chiếc xe đã được trả lại cho John. Anh ấy không thể tin được tất cả những điều điên rồ đã xảy ra với chiếc xe của mình.
