In these novels and films, Detective Dee 18 many cases.“The first 19 of solving cases is that you need a good memory. The second is that you need to 20 watch people’s facial (面部的) expressions and judge (判断) their speeches,” explained Detective Dee in a movie.21 there were always made-up stories in movies and novels, Detective Dee wasa 22 person in history.

Its success is surprising because the series is about the relaxing lifestyles of people who live in the country. There is none of the action that we usually see on TV today. There are also no stressful moments, busy offices or crowded citi es. Away from it all is set in the peaceful English countryside and tells simple stories about people’s kindness.The director of the TV series says that its success is a sign of teenagers suffering from stress. They say that watching Away from it all helps teenagers forget about the stress of exams and homework, and the troubles that fill the world today. They also say that it’s a good sign of today’s young people switching to (转到) happier TV series as it shows they would like a happier and healthier world.Although the series’ success might have a good side, many teachers and parents are worried, however. They say that some of their students and children are becoming couch potatoes (终日泡在电视机前的人) and are using Away from it all as an excuse for not completing homework. Some children have even refused to learn for exams because they say that they can only achieve personal happiness by avoiding stressful situations completely.And what do the experts say? Paula Ray, a doctor of education, says that TV can influence children’s lifestyles. But she says that if a chil d reacts strongly, it’s likely that there are other reasons for his change in behaviour. She says that there is nothing wrong with watching Away from it all but suggests that parents should make sure their children know TV is not the same as real life.( )1. The success of the series shows that young people would like _________.A. a world with no homeworkB. English TV seriesC. relaxing jobsD. a happier and healthier world( )2. The success of the new TV series is surprising because .A. it is different from other successful TV seriesB. it is the same as other successful TV seriesC. it is about the English countrysideD. it is about life in bus y office ( )3. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. There is some action in the TV series.B. The programme is about busy offices.C. Many teachers and parents are worried that it will influence children’s studies.D. TV is different from real life.(B)We all like watching online videos of dogs and cats doing funny things. But if you had to decide, which of the two animals would you say you might like better? Your answer may say something about your personality.According to a 2010 study led by Sam Gosling, a scientist at the University of Texas, US, dog people are about 15 percent more outgoing and 13 percent more pleasant to be friends with than cat people.This is not hard to understand, since cats and dogs behave differently themselves. “Cats will occasionally engage in social activities, but usually af ter only a few minutes, they will give up the game. Dogs, on the other hand, will often engage in play, like catching a thrown ball, for hours at a time,” said Modern Dog Magazine. Although cat people are less social, Gosling’s study showed that they are 11 percent more open-minded than dog people. They usually like art, adventures(冒险) and unusual ideas. They also have more imagination and curiosity. But dog people are more likely to stick to old beliefs and traditional interests.However, their love of a free lifestyle also means that cat people dislike making plans. They just follow whatever ideas pop into their heads without planning ahead. But dog people are different. They usually have strong self-control and like to carry out their plans.Despite these big differences between dog people and cat people, there are some things that they have in common, “Both types of people consider themselves close to nature, dislike animal-print clothing, and are generally optimists,” noted Mother Nature Network.But can personality change? Can a cat person become a dog person, or the other way around? In a study done by Stanley Coren, a scientist based in Canada, he askedcat owners: “If you had enough living space and there were no objections from other people in your life, and someone gave you a puppy as a gift, would you keep it?”About 68 percent of them said they would not accept a dog as a pet. But when dog owners were asked the same question about a kitten, almost 70 percent said they would allow a cat into their lives.( )4. According to the article, dog people ________ cat people.A. perform better in school thanB. are more open-minded thanC. have closer friends thanD. are more traditional than( )5. The underlined phrase “engage in” in Paragr aph 3 probably means ________.A. take little interest inB. take part inC. benefit fromD. suffer from( )6. What do cat people and dog people have in common? --________.A. Both of them like planning aheadB. Both of them love travelling and adventuresC. Both of them are imaginative and curiousD. Both of them care about nature. ( )7. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?A. Cat people are more likely to become dog people.B. Dog people are more likely to accept cats into their homes than cat people are to accept dogs.C. Neither dog nor cat people like to accept a new pet.D. It is difficult to find out whether dog people or cat people will make a change.CEverybody may have seen the film “Death on the Nile (n. 尼罗河)”, but nobody can imagine that the writer of the story, Agatha Christie, saved a baby in a most unusual way. In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Deleville. Doctors there were unable to find out the cause of her illness, so she was sent to a famous hospital in London, where there were many excellent doctors. The baby was so seriously ill that a team of doctors hurried to examine the baby without delay. The doctors, too, were puzzled by the baby’s illness and they also became discouraged. Just then a nurse asked to speak to them. “I think the baby is suffering from thallium (n. 铊) poisoning. ” said the nurse. “A few days ago, I read a story ‘A Pale Horse’ written by Agatha Christie. Someone uses thallium poison, and all the symptoms are written in the book. They are exactly the same as the baby’s.”“You’re very good at observing things,” said a doctor, “and you may be right. We’ll carry out some tests and find out whether the cause is thallium poisoning or not.”The tests proved that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium. Once they knew the cause, the doctors were able to give her correct treatment. The baby soon got well and was sent back to Deleville. A week later, it was reported that the poison might have comefrom an insecticide (n. 杀虫剂) used in Deleville.( )8. The baby was sent to a hospital in London because __________.A.her parents were living in London thenB.the hospitals in Deleville were full at that timeC.she was the daughter of a famous doctor in LondonD.doctors in Deleville were not sure about the cause of her illness( )9. When the baby was first sent to the hospital in London, her illness was considered to be ____________.A. quite easy to treat B.the result of thallium poisoningC.a common one D.extraordinarily serious( )10. From this passage it seems that the baby’s illness had something to do with __________.A.a dead writer B.the water in DelevilleC.a dangerous murderer D.a harmful substance (n. 物质) used to kill pests ( )11.
