英语
Sherlock Holmes is considered by many people as the great detective in fiction. He is, in fact, more famous than his own creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
In the popular series of stories, Holmes is described as “tall and manner”. Doyle gave Holmes’ address as 221-B Baker Street, London, and to this day some visitors to London still go to Baker Street to search for 221-B. Of course, there never was really any such address. Holmes’ flat was supposed to be shared by the lovable, but sometimes clumsy (愚笨的) Dr. Watson who went around with Holmes trying to solve crimes before Holmes did. Poor Dr. Watson lost out to Holmes every time
Doyle gave Holmes a masterly skill of deduction-the ability to come up with interesting conclusions from the simplest clues found at the scene of a crime.
Conan Doyle said that the description of Holmes was modelled on one of his lectures at Edinburgh University where he studied medicine. The man was Dr. Joseph Bell.
The name of Sherlock Holmes first came to be shown in Doyle’s A study in Scarlet published in 1887. Holmes was so loved by all that when his author killed him off in one of his stories, readers wrote in angrily. They refused to allow Holmes to die! Holmes was brought back to “life” and appeared in further stories.
The stories of Sherlock Holmes have been reprinted many times ever since then. Today we can watch Holmes at work on cinema and television screens as well as on stage.
1. Sherlock Holmes was ( ).
A. the greatest detective who ever lived
B.Dr. Joseph Bell
C. Arthur Conan Doyle
D. only a character made up by Arthur Conan Doyle
【答案】D。由文章第一段第二句可以推测福尔摩斯只是作者塑造的一个人物,而不是真实存在的人。A是个现实生活中非常厉害的侦探。B项就是Joseph, 但文段中不是。C项是Arthur。ABC均不符合文段叙述,因此答案选D。
2. Holmes was supposed to have lived ( ).
A. somewhere in England
B. in a bungalow in London
C. in Dr. Watson’s clinic in Baker Street
D. in a flat in Baker Street
【答案】D。由第二段“Doyle gave Holmes’ address as 221-B Baker Street, London”与Holmes’ flat was supposed to be……可知,Holmes被假定生活在Baker Street。A项指的是生活在英国。B项指的是在伦敦的某处平房。C项指的是在Baker Street的一家公寓。但从文段的句子可以排除ABC三项,因此选择D项。
3. Doyle made up the description of Holmes ( ).
A. from his own imagination
B. based on a famous London doctor
C. based on Dr. Joseph Bell at Edinburgh University
D. based on a model of Holmes
【答案】C。根据第四段……Holmes was modeled on和The man was Dr. Joseph Bell。可以判断Holmes是用Dr.Joseph为原型进行创作的。而A强调的处于作者的想象。B项强调的是基于一个出名的伦敦医生。D项指的是基于福尔摩斯的原型。因此答案选C项。
4. Readers did not ( ).
A. like the way Holmes died
B. want Holmes to die
C. want Dr. Watson to die
D. like Holmes to appear in further stories
【答案】B。根据第五段倒数第二句可以判断读者不希望Holmes死去。A项不喜欢福尔摩斯死去的方式。C项指的是不希望Watson死去。D项不希望福尔摩斯在以后的的情节中出现。因此选B项。
