In Paris, one freezing winter evening, I was having dinner with my friend, Mr Dupin, a famous detective.We had just finished our meal when there was a loud knock at the door.Dupin opened it.There stood Mr Germain, Chief(首领) of the Paris Police.
We welcomed him warmly, for he was an old acquaintance(熟人) whom we hadn't seen for a long time.
"I need your assistance(帮助)," said Germain. "I met a case that has been giving me a great deal of trouble.It is very simple but very strange."
"Also, please keep this secret.If anyone found out that I told you this, I would certainly lose my job."
"Well, then," said the chief, "I have learned that a very important letter was stolen from the king.We are sure who stole it and that the letter is in his house now."
"But who would dare to do such a thing " I cried.
"The thief," said Germain softly, "is a man who dares to do many dangerous things.He is one of the most powerful and important ministers in the government.He is Minister Danton!"
"Have you searched his house "
"A lot of times, while Minister Danton was out, a lot of well-trained police officers carefully searched the entire house, room by room.In fact, we examined everything in the house but found nothing."
A month later, Dupin asked Germain and me to his house.There he took out a letter and handed it to the chief.We were both very surprised.
Dupin explained, "I know Minister Danton very well.He could not hide the letter in any of the usual hiding places.I realized that he might have left the letter out in the open, right under everyone's nose, where no one would search for it."
"Then I visited him with my dark glasses on to help me observe(观察) better.While we were chatting, a dirty, torn letter in the letter holder suddenly caught my eye — unusual for the Minister, who is careful and neat."
"I was sure it was the letter."
"Then I purposely left my gloves behind so I could come back again."
"The next morning, I hired a man to fire a gun on the street.While the Minister went to see what happened, I stole the letter by replacing it with a similar one." On it Dupin wrote these words:
Your plan was good, but mine was better.
As you can see, I took the letter.

How to be a good detective
Have you seen the Hollywood movie Sherlock Holmes Holmes is a character created by the British writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His books were so popular that Holmes soon became "the most famous detective in the world". What do you need to be a good detective The movie Sherlock Holmes will show you.
In the movie, the great detective faces a dangerous man, Lord Blackwood. Together with his best friend Dr Watson, Holmes stops Blackwood's plan to control the world with "black magic".
Most of us are not as intelligent as Holmes. But we can also work out mysteries on our own. All we have to do is to follow some simple rules.
Rule No. 1: Justice(正义) is the most important. No matter how smart he or she is, the most important quality for a detective is being good. In the movie, Lord Blackwood and Sherlock Holmes are both very intelligent. The difference is that Lord Blackwood is a bad man and he does bad things. Holmes can beat him on the side of justice.
Rule No. 2: Have sharp eyes. Every bad man tries to cover up what he has done. But not all things can be covered up easily. A good detective can discover the clues hidden on the scene of the crime with sharp eyes. For example, Holmes can simply look at a man's footprints and quickly find out his personal information like age and habits.
Rule No. 3: A good assistant is a great help. Even though Holmes has knowledge about many subjects, such as chemistry, botany(植物学) and anatomy(解剖学), he still needs Dr Watson's help. You should also have someone help you, especially if you don't know as much as Holmes.
Rule No. 4: Logic(逻辑) is the key. A good detective never jumps to conclusions. When all the necessary clues are put together, you'd better think carefully. If you can't work it out, don't be afraid. Just take a deep breath and concentrate on thinking. Logic can help you discover missing clues.

One possible version:
Hello, everyone. The great writer Gorky once said, "Books are the ladder of human progress." I think reading books is good for us.
Reading is wonderful. We can get knowledge by reading. Reading can open our minds. It can improve memory. Reading makes us confident and happy.
Among all the books I've read, the novel called The Old Man and the Sea is my favourite. It was written by an American writer. It tells about a fisherman who is lucky enough to catch a huge fish, but he finds it hard to take it home. On his way home, he has to fight against the fish and the sea.
I like the book best because it tells such a meaningful story that I can learn a lot from it. The fisherman is brave and he never gives up when he is in trouble. I also learn that nothing seems terrible as long as we have a strong will and a brave heart.

In Paris, one freezing winter evening, I was having dinner with my friend, Mr Dupin, a famous detective.We had just finished our meal when there was a loud knock at the door.Dupin opened it.There stood Mr Germain, Chief(首领) of the Paris Police.
We welcomed him warmly, for he was an old acquaintance(熟人) whom we hadn't seen for a long time.
"I need your assistance(帮助)," said Germain. "I met a case that has been giving me a great deal of trouble.It is very simple but very strange."
"Also, please keep this secret.If anyone found out that I told you this, I would certainly lose my job."
"Well, then," said the chief, "I have learned that a very important letter was stolen from the king.We are sure who stole it and that the letter is in his house now."
"But who would dare to do such a thing " I cried.
"The thief," said Germain softly, "is a man who dares to do many dangerous things.He is one of the most powerful and important ministers in the government.He is Minister Danton!"
"Have you searched his house "
"A lot of times, while Minister Danton was out, a lot of well-trained police officers carefully searched the entire house, room by room.In fact, we examined everything in the house but found nothing."
A month later, Dupin asked Germain and me to his house.There he took out a letter and handed it to the chief.We were both very surprised.
Dupin explained, "I know Minister Danton very well.He could not hide the letter in any of the usual hiding places.I realized that he might have left the letter out in the open, right under everyone's nose, where no one would search for it."
"Then I visited him with my dark glasses on to help me observe(观察) better.While we were chatting, a dirty, torn letter in the letter holder suddenly caught my eye — unusual for the Minister, who is careful and neat."
"I was sure it was the letter."
"Then I purposely left my gloves behind so I could come back again."
"The next morning, I hired a man to fire a gun on the street.While the Minister went to see what happened, I stole the letter by replacing it with a similar one." On it Dupin wrote these words:
Your plan was good, but mine was better.
As you can see, I took the letter.

How to be a good detective
Have you seen the Hollywood movie Sherlock Holmes Holmes is a character created by the British writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His books were so popular that Holmes soon became "the most famous detective in the world". What do you need to be a good detective The movie Sherlock Holmes will show you.
In the movie, the great detective faces a dangerous man, Lord Blackwood. Together with his best friend Dr Watson, Holmes stops Blackwood's plan to control the world with "black magic".
Most of us are not as intelligent as Holmes. But we can also work out mysteries on our own. All we have to do is to follow some simple rules.
Rule No. 1: Justice(正义) is the most important. No matter how smart he or she is, the most important quality for a detective is being good. In the movie, Lord Blackwood and Sherlock Holmes are both very intelligent. The difference is that Lord Blackwood is a bad man and he does bad things. Holmes can beat him on the side of justice.
Rule No. 2: Have sharp eyes. Every bad man tries to cover up what he has done. But not all things can be covered up easily. A good detective can discover the clues hidden on the scene of the crime with sharp eyes. For example, Holmes can simply look at a man's footprints and quickly find out his personal information like age and habits.
Rule No. 3: A good assistant is a great help. Even though Holmes has knowledge about many subjects, such as chemistry, botany(植物学) and anatomy(解剖学), he still needs Dr Watson's help. You should also have someone help you, especially if you don't know as much as Holmes.
Rule No. 4: Logic(逻辑) is the key. A good detective never jumps to conclusions. When all the necessary clues are put together, you'd better think carefully. If you can't work it out, don't be afraid. Just take a deep breath and concentrate on thinking. Logic can help you discover missing clues.

One possible version:
Hello, everyone. The great writer Gorky once said, "Books are the ladder of human progress." I think reading books is good for us.
Reading is wonderful. We can get knowledge by reading. Reading can open our minds. It can improve memory. Reading makes us confident and happy.
Among all the books I've read, the novel called The Old Man and the Sea is my favourite. It was written by an American writer. It tells about a fisherman who is lucky enough to catch a huge fish, but he finds it hard to take it home. On his way home, he has to fight against the fish and the sea.
I like the book best because it tells such a meaningful story that I can learn a lot from it. The fisherman is brave and he never gives up when he is in trouble. I also learn that nothing seems terrible as long as we have a strong will and a brave heart.
