Today there are policemen everywhere, but in 1700, London had no policemen at all. A few old
men used to protect the city streets at night and they were not paid.
In 1750, Henry Fielding started to pay a group of people to stop thieves. They were like
policemen and were called Bow Street Runners because they worked near Bow Street.
Fifty years later, there were 120 Bow Street Runners, but London had become very big and
needed more policemen. So in 1829, London Police Force was started with 3,000 officers. Until
1920 all the police in London were men.

【小题2】When was London Police Force started? ( 回答词数不超过2个)
【小题3】Are all the London police men now? (回答词数不超过1个)A few old men.
