The Mysterious Volkswagen
Last week, we had a party at house. Many people came, and there were lots of cars parked outside. At the end of the party, only three people were left: myself, Eric, and Cathy. However, there were four cars. One of them was a Volkswagen. I didn't remember seeing it before, so I asked whose it was.
Eric said it wasn't car. is a Chevrolet pickup. When I asked Cathy if it was hers, she said no car is a Ford Explorer. I knew it wasn't car, of course. Finally, I called the police, and they came and examined it. They said it belonged to a family on the next street. Someone stole it from street and left it on .
