The plane was late and detectives were waiting at the airport all morning. They were expecting a valuable parcel of diamonds from South Africa.

飞机晚点了，侦探们整个上午都在机场等候。他们等的是一包从南非运来的贵重钻石。 几个小时前，有人告诉警方，窃贼会设法偷走这批钻石。 飞机到达时，一部分侦探守在候机大楼里，另一部分守在停机坪上。 两个人把包裹从飞机上取下来，送进海关。两名侦探在门口警戒，另外两人打开了包裹。 让他们大吃一惊的是，这个珍贵的包裹里竟然装满了石头和沙子！
学完这一课
先沿这条线复述《太晚了》：等候贵重包裹 → 事先收到线报 → 分头守候 → 押送并开箱 → 结果出乎意料。再借一个结构讲自己的事：选出文中的两个动作，哪个先发生？再用自己的经历写一对。
