Jennifer got off the bus from the university and began walking towards the flat she shared with two
other students. 1 She picked up a wire basket and walked towards the back of the shop, where the
rice was kept. The shop was divided by three long aisles, with rows of shelves crammed with all sorts
of things. Except for her and Mr. Patel, the owner, there were only two other people there. They were
two teenage boys, and they were standing at the end of one of the aisles.
She glanced at them as she passed. They were both wearing long, oldfashioned overcoats and they
looked rather ridiculous in them because the coats were too big. 2 "Watch out, stupid," she heard
one of them whisper to the other. She walked on to the next aisle and found the rice she was looking
for.
Then she heard something else. 3 She peered through a gap in the shelf and caught a glimpse of
one of the boys bending down. She saw him pick up a tin of food. But instead of putting it in the
shopping basket, he dropped it into the inside pocket of his long overcoat. Jennifer glanced back down
the aisle. She could see Mr. Patel at the cash till, still checking through his list.
4 The boys still had their backs to her. "Come on, let's get out of here," she heard one of them
say. At the same time, she saw one of them put another tin in his overcoat pocket. They moved away
from her. She could no longer see what they were doing or hear what they were saying.
When she got to the still, the two boys were in front of her. She watched them pay for the few things
they had in the basket. They had both buttoned their coats and fastened them with their belts. 5 He
even smiled at them as they were about to leave. Jennifer opened her mouth to say something.
