When we are little kids, birthday parties are big occasions. They are our time to shine, and we love everything about them: the balloons, the games, the cake, the gifts, and so on.
After reading cool stories about police officers (警察) solving cases, Allen Miller thought the police were great, hoping to become one of them! So, when he had to choose a theme for his seventh birthday party—he went with his favorite: the police! And all he wanted for his birthday party was a model police car. He excitedly invited some of his friends and anxiously awaited the day. Unfortunately, none of them could make it to the party due to various reasons. Allen’s mom Rachel wrestled (纠结) with the challenging decision: should she cancel (取消) the party?
Officer Frank Smith, who had already planned with Rachel and agreed to show up at the party, heard from Rachel that it might be canceled due to low attendance (出席率). That’s when he decided to save the day. After all, his duty is to serve and protect, and he decided to serve him the most amazing seventh birthday party! Officer Smith got the whole local police to join in.
On the day of Allen’s party, Officer Smith picked up Rachel and Allen in his police car. They stopped at Town Hall, and officer Smith led them into the meeting room where a group of policemen were waiting to wish Allen a happy birthday. There, a party was waiting for him. The room was filled with warmth and he was greeted by the smiling faces of officers who had stepped away from their duties to celebrate with him. A large cake stood at the center of the room, drawing Allen’s eyes. As they gathered around the cake, Allen felt a rush of joy. With each officer’s cheer, he blew out the candles (蜡烛), making a wish that sparkled in his eyes as brightly as the candles had.
After they enjoyed the cake, Officer Smith took out a gift bag.
