(2024扬州江都月考)That morning, we noticed a cab following Sir Henry and Dr. Mortimer in London. But who
We went to Sir Henry's hotel. Holmes asked Dr. Mortimer if anyone with a black beard lived in or near Baskerville Hall.
“Yes，” said Dr. Mortimer, “Barrymore.”
“We must send a telegram to check whether Barrymore is in London or at Baskerville Hall，” said Holmes.
Sir Henry said he wanted to go to Baskerville Hall.
“OK，” said Holmes. “But you mustn't go alone. Watson can go with you.”
Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10：30 train on Saturday.
Holmes thought deeply on the way home: the story of the Hound, Sir Charles's death, the strange letter, the missing boot and the black bearded man. He sat in his room all afternoon, smoking and thinking.
Just before dinner, a telegram arrived. It said, “Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall.”
“That becomes a dead_end,_Watson. We will have to look for another way to go forward.”
Just then the door bell rang. It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard. “I got a message that you are asking for me，” he said. “I've never had a complaint. I came here to ask you what you had against me！”
“No, no，” said Holmes. “Instead, I'll give you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning. He watched this house at 10：00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen.”
The driver looked surprised and then answered, “The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn't tell anyone about him.”
“It's serious, my friend, and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer.”
“His name，” said the driver, “was Sherlock Holmes.”
I'd never seen Holmes more surprised. Then he laughed. “He_scored_against_
me_that_time,_Watson.”

(2024南京郑和外国语学校月考)Sherlock Holmes is considered by many people to be the greatest detective in stories. 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 manly(有男子气概的)”. Doyle gave Holmes address as 221B Baker Street, London, and to this day some visitors to London still go to Baker Street to search for 221B. Of course, there never was really any such address. Holmes' flat was supposed to be shared by the lovable, but sometimes clumsy(笨拙的) Dr Watson, who went around with Holmes and tried to solve problems before Holmes did. Poor Dr Watson lost out to Holmes every time.
Doyle gave Holmes a masterly skill of deduction(推断)—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 modeled on one of his lecturers 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.

(2024扬州江都月考)That morning, we noticed a cab following Sir Henry and Dr. Mortimer in London. But who
We went to Sir Henry's hotel. Holmes asked Dr. Mortimer if anyone with a black beard lived in or near Baskerville Hall.
“Yes，” said Dr. Mortimer, “Barrymore.”
“We must send a telegram to check whether Barrymore is in London or at Baskerville Hall，” said Holmes.
Sir Henry said he wanted to go to Baskerville Hall.
“OK，” said Holmes. “But you mustn't go alone. Watson can go with you.”
Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10：30 train on Saturday.
Holmes thought deeply on the way home: the story of the Hound, Sir Charles's death, the strange letter, the missing boot and the black bearded man. He sat in his room all afternoon, smoking and thinking.
Just before dinner, a telegram arrived. It said, “Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall.”
“That becomes a dead_end,_Watson. We will have to look for another way to go forward.”
Just then the door bell rang. It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard. “I got a message that you are asking for me，” he said. “I've never had a complaint. I came here to ask you what you had against me！”
“No, no，” said Holmes. “Instead, I'll give you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning. He watched this house at 10：00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen.”
The driver looked surprised and then answered, “The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn't tell anyone about him.”
“It's serious, my friend, and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer.”
“His name，” said the driver, “was Sherlock Holmes.”
I'd never seen Holmes more surprised. Then he laughed. “He_scored_against_
me_that_time,_Watson.”

They have nothing except a small piece of land and a huge old house. We are living in the house. Dr Roylott is using my mother's money for expenses. Part of it was for my sister and me. It was for our marriages.”
Holmes is sitting in his chair. His eyes are closed. He is listening carefully to Helen's story. He hears every detail.
Helen continues, “My stepfather has no friends. He fights with everyone. He is strong and gets angry quickly. Everyone is afraid of him.”
“He has no friends at all？” asks Holmes.
“No. He talks to no one except the gypsies. They are poor people who travel from place to place. A band of gypsies is staying on our land right now.”
“Are you and your sister afraid of the gypsies？”
“My dear Mr Holmes. You are making me so sad. My sister is dead. That is why I am standing here in this room.”

(2024南京郑和外国语学校月考)Sherlock Holmes is considered by many people to be the greatest detective in stories. 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 manly(有男子气概的)”. Doyle gave Holmes address as 221B Baker Street, London, and to this day some visitors to London still go to Baker Street to search for 221B. Of course, there never was really any such address. Holmes' flat was supposed to be shared by the lovable, but sometimes clumsy(笨拙的) Dr Watson, who went around with Holmes and tried to solve problems before Holmes did. Poor Dr Watson lost out to Holmes every time.
Doyle gave Holmes a masterly skill of deduction(推断)—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 modeled on one of his lecturers 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.
