First listen and then answer the question.

Who was the thief?
People are not so honest as they once were.
人们不再像以前那样诚实了。
The temptation to steal is greater than ever before—especially in large shops.
偷窃的诱惑力比以往任何时候都更强烈——特别是在大的商店里。
A detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went into a large store on Monday mornings.
一名侦探最近注意上了一位穿着讲究的妇女，她总是在星期一上午进入一家大商场。
One Monday, there were fewer people in the shop than usual when the woman came in,
有一个星期一，当这位妇女走进这家商场时，里面的人比往常少，
so it was easier for the detective to watch her.
因此，侦探比较容易监视她。
The woman first bought a few small articles.
这位妇女先是买了几样小商品。
After a little time, she chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop and handed it to an assistant who wrapped it up for her as quickly as possible.
过了一会儿，她又选了商场里最昂贵的一件衣服，把它递给了售货员。那售货员以最快的速度为她包好了衣服。
Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out of the shop without paying.
然后，那妇女拿过包就走出了商场，根本没有付钱。
When she was arrested, the detective found out that the shop assistant was her daughter.
她被逮捕后，侦探发现原来那售货员是她的女儿。
The girl 'gave' her mother a free dress once a week!
那姑娘每星期“送”她母亲一件免费的衣服！
