Dear Linda,

I have read your letter, in which you mention that you wanted to lose weight by dieting. It’s naturally for young girls of your ages to wish to look beautiful. Therefore, in my opinion, health is more important than beauty. For a student, studying is the first thing to consider while appearance is the second. So don’t let others’ opinions to affect your normal life. However, if you do want to lose weight, it’s good idea to do it by getting more exercise and change unhealthy eating habits. The most important thing is that you keep a healthy state of mind, as they will help with your studies, and will also help you overcome difficult in dieting.

I hope my advice will be helpful with you.

Yours,

Tom

Recently there had been many reports about teenagers’ safety, in which some of them got hurt and even lost their lives. Besides, it’s necessary for our teenagers to develop self-protection awareness and learn to protect ourselves. But how can we protect ourselves? First of all, we should make a rule to eat healthy food, in case unhealthy food does harm for our health. Second, we should be careful when made friends, especially online. Third, for the sake of our safety and the others’ safety, we should obey the traffic rules. Last but not least, if we are in dangers, we should call the police immediate. All in all, we must keep safety in mind, no matter when and where we are.

【题目】阅读理解
Written in the first chapter of the book Pride and Prejudice is an extraordinary sentence of which even a person who has had only a brief look upon the book will not fail to receive a deep impression — It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. In terms of Sherlock Holmes, we'd better alter the sentence into “It is a fact universally accepted by readers throughout the world that an excellent book in possession of our famous detective Sherlock Holmes is undoubtedly a masterpiece of all times.” Perhaps this is one of the most obvious explanations for the unrivaled popularity of “Holmes series” in the field of detective stories. Overwhelmed by the recommendations provided by my friends, I decided to take a look on this Sherlock Holmes and the Duke's Son originally published by Oxford University Press.
As a whole, this book is about a case concerning the Duke's missing son. Arthur, the Duke's son, was found out in a certain morning to have disappeared, accompanied with which was also the disappearance of the German teacher. The school master Dr. Huxtable then turned to the famous detective of the time Sherlock Holmes for help. Realizing how tough and important the case is, Holmes immediately made up his mind to accept the case and followed Dr. Huxtable back to Mackleton by train. Having formed a rough idea about the whole matter, Holmes probed into the case immediately and had a careful investigation of the entire area shortly after the arrival, during the process of which he discovered the body of the German teacher Heidegger. Finally, primarily due to his prominent ability as a detective, he managed to unravel the mystery.
Having once started reading this fiction, I was completely immersed in the mysterious story. At the beginning, unlike other detective stories, this story first delineates the client's strange behavior at length to indicate the severity of the incident in order to attract the readers to continue reading it. As is known to all, vivid depiction is essential to detective stories as it makes the story more authentic and attractive. Therefore, trying to present a “real world” to his readership, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the original “Holmes series”, has skillfully arranged the plots of the whole story from the perspective of Dr. Watson, a friend of Homes'. In this way, he elaborately (精心)depicted every scene and character in the book. Apart from the special start, the ending of the whole story, being dramatic but reasonable, is certainly an outstanding one. After all, except the author himself, who knows that the Duke's seemingly ordinary secretary is in fact the Duke's bastard(私生子)? In addition, who knows that the Duke actually has already been acquainted with the whole thing before Holmes solves this complicated problem? Yet, surprising as it is, this ending seems so natural that it fits all the plots of the story perfectly well. Closing my eyes, I can even “see” the story happening just like watching a film.
As far as I am concerned, nothing is more admirable and surprising in the hero Sherlock Homes than his profound knowledge which has certainly assisted him a lot when he was studying the case. Take the bicycle tyres for instance, Holmes is capable of recognizing 42 different varieties of bicycle tyres. Except for his illimitable knowledge, Holmes also specializes in arranging the facts in order and then finding the fact leading him to a great discovery or even the truth itself. In this case, after getting rid of unrelated facts, Sherlock Homes eventually grasped the clue and discovered the amazing fact.
Needless to say, as a world-renowned masterpiece, Sherlock Holmes and the Duke's Son has attracted and is still charming numerous readers from all corners of the world and people from all walks of life. The “Holmes series” has already set up a standard against which all the following detective fictions are measured. Sherlock Holmes, beyond all doubt, has been a name firmly rooted in people's memories. Although Dr. Watson's closing The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes in 1927 was a great pity to the readers, the discontinuance of the entire “Holmes series” may have actually added to the legendary stature of Sherlock Holmes.
(1)Why does the author mention the book Pride and Prejudice?
A.To show his/her impression on it.
B.To change a sentence in it to evaluate the Holmes series.
C.To quote a sentence to directly illustrate its impressiveness.
D.To state the reason why he/she began reading Sherlock Holmes and the Duck's son.
(2)Many factors contribute to the author's positive attitude toward the book EXCEPT that __________.
A.the detailed description of a client's strange behavior arouses the readers' interest
B.the plots are well laid out and all scenes and characters are artfully presented
C.the book is even adapted into a film and the author really enjoys watching it
D.its ending is so surprising that it makes the author deeply impressed
(3)What kind of a person is Sherlock Holmes according to the passage?
A.Knowledgeable.
B.Arbitrary.
C.Mysterious.
D.Courageous.
(4)How is the passage organized?
(p=paragraph)
A.
B.
C.
D.
(5)What's the passage mainly about?
A.It mainly introduces the plots of the book Sherlock Holmes and the Duck's son.
B.It's mainly about the author's attitude towards Sherlock Holmes.
C.It's mainly about the thoughts of the author after reading Sherlock Holmes and the Duck's son.
D.It's mainly a comparison between the book Pride and Prejudice and the Holmes series.
