The day before yesterday, a bag of money was missing from the zoo. Mr Safari, the zoo manager, was very1. He wanted to find out who took the money, but it was difficult for him to find out by himself, so he called the police for2. Everyone else was there but Tim, the ticket collector, so the police had to ask the three zookeepers some questions and here is the information they gave.
The keeper of big cats said, "I don't know3Tim is. He was looking very serious today, which is unlike him. He always4when he meets others!"
The keeper of giraffes said, "I saw Tim at about5o'clock. He was in a big hurry."
The elephant keeper said, "I also saw him then. He was carrying a big bag!"
"Tim? Oh no!" cried Mr Safari." l trusted him with the money. How can I feed the animals and pay my keepers now? I'll have to6the zoo."
"Tim7the thief," said one policeman.
At that moment, Tim came running up to them." "I8got it back!" he said." I've been hunting those naughty monkeys since two o'clock. They took a bag of money from my desk,9I had to take a bag of bananas to interest them and make them return the10to me."
"Oh, Tim, I'm sorry to have suspected you!"Mr Safari said." Thank you for saving the zoo!"
