（单词翻译:单击）

My wife was away all weekend at a business conference.

During a break, she decided1 to call home collect. Our six-year-old son picked up the phone and heard a stranger's voice say, "We have a Betty on the line. Will you accept the charges?"

Frantic2, he dropped the receiver and came charging outside screaming, "Dad! They've got Mom! And they want money!"
