One afternoon， I noticed a small boy standing alone， clearly lost. I tried to make him confident—I took him to the nearest ice-cream stand （摊位） and bought him a cone （蛋卷冰激凌）. Time passed and the boys parents didnt appeared， so the next step was to call the police station to send a car to take him to the station first.

Several minutes later， the car arrived， two police officers came out and one of them asked me where the child was. I felt stupid， its difficult to say youve lost a lost child. But I told the officers what had happened and gave a description （描述） of the boy. “What did you treat him？” asked one of the men.
