Sometimes it’s dangerous.One day, for example, I was working undercover; that is , I was on the job,but I was wearing (S6)normal clothes, not my police (S7)uniform.I was trying to catch some robbers who were stealing money from people as they walked down the street.Suddenly,(S8)seven bad men jumped out at me; one of them had a knife, and we got into a fight. Another policeman arrived, and together, we arrested three of the men; but the other four ran away.Another day, I helped a woman who was going to have a baby.(S9)She was trying to get to the hospital, but there was a bad traffic jam. I put her in my police car to get her there faster.I thought she was going to have the baby right there in my car.But fortunately, (S10)the baby waited to“arrive” until we got to the hospital.
