a short while ago 不久前。
far more exciting 令人兴奋得多。far是副词，放在比较级的形容词前，表示程度，可译作"很"、"大大地"。
he saw two thieves rush out of a shop and run towards a waiting car,他看到两个小偷从一家商店里冲出来，奔向等在那里的一辆汽车。在动词see后面接不定式时，不一定要省去to, 如本句中的rush和run两个不定式。
a bag full of money 一只装满钞票的提包。full of...是形容词短语，此处作定语，相当于一个定词从句which was full of money.
The one with the money got such a fright that he dropped the bag.拿钱的那个小偷吓得把提包都扔了。句中such...that....的结构有"如此...以至于..."的意思，such 后面要跟名词。
shortly afterwards,没过多久.
