Two smart children - Benjamin Kan, 12, and his sister Emily, 11, found a stolen car in woods near Sai Kung yesterday morning. The delighted owner, Mrs. Judy Roberts, has made a decision to take the children out to dinner as a reward.
Both Benjamin and Emily are studying at Sai Kung Secondary School. They were walking along a path on their way to school when they noticed a car partly covered with branches pulled from a tree. The children were a bit surprised because very few people parked their cars there. They looked inside the car and there was nobody in it.
The children suspected something went wrong. They made a note of the type of the car and its color. Benjamin, a secondary one student, also wrote down its number. When they returned to their school, they immediately told their teacher what they had seen. The matter was reported to the police station.
As a result of inquires（调查）, Mrs. Judy Roberts was traced. The car had been stolen from her garage two days earlier.
“I lost my car two days ago and I was extremely upset. I’m glad to have it found now. I really have to thank Benjamin and Emily. My husband and I will take them out to dinner. I’m going to write to headmaster of Sai Kung Secondary School to thank their teachers and pay tribute（称赞）to them,” Mrs. Judy Roberts said.
