She was known to millions as the "Queen of Crime" or the "Duchess (女公爵) of Death". But surprisingly, she hated violence and blood, and knew nothing of the weapons most often used in murder. "I don't think I dare look at a really horrible and damaged body," Agatha Christie once said. But her pen dared to travel where her eyes would not. In a 50-year writing career, Christie's murder stories made her the world's best-known mystery writer. She is outsold only by the Bible (《圣經》) and Shakespeare.
Her works have been turned into films and TV series, and a line of computer games is set to be released over the next six years.
"My grandmother liked to use new ways to reach people who wanted to enjoy her work," said Christie's grandson, Mathew Prichard. "Turning her stories into PC games allows us to introduce classic mysteries to new audiences."
Born in 1890 in England, Christie was educated at home and began her writing career while working as a nurse during World War I. She went on to produce 79 novels and numerous (大量的) short stories, dying at the age of 86. "With her knowledge of murder, Christie could have been a teacher at police academies," said one fan.
Her first novel, "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" (《斯泰爾斯莊園奇案》), also introduced Hercule Poirot, a retired Belgian (比利時的) police officer who starred in 30 of her works. Among the most popular are "Murder on the Orient Express" (《東方快車謀殺案》) (1934), and "Death on the Nile" (《尼羅河上的慘案》) (1937).
Poirot is a tidy little man with a funny-looking moustache, an egg-shaped head, and a high opinion of himself. He draws conclusions from observing the behavior of those around him, always managing to spot patterns that others cannot see. Poirot has become so famous that someone has even written his biography (傳記), "The Life and Times of Hercule Poirot".
Starring in 17 novels, another Christie character, Miss Marple, is nearly as well known as Poirot. But while the Belgian uses his powers of observation, the old Miss Marple relies on her knowledge of human nature to solve crimes. As she once said, "Human nature is the same everywhere."
1. Agatha Christie was a ________ woman.
A. rich B. kind C. bold D. outstanding
2. Christie's murder stories ranked the ________ in sale amount.
A. second B. first C. third D. fourth
3. Christie's stories have been turned into ________ other forms.

D. human nature； observation

（2011·安徽卷）B
Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources（來源）, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills（風車）began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.
For many centuries, people used windmills to grind（磨碎）wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the 1940s, when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were rarely used.
During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.
60. From the text we know that windmills .
A. were invented by European armies
B. have a history of more than 2800 years
C. used to supply power to radio in remote areas
D. have rarely been used since electricity was discovered
61. What was a new use for wind power in the late l9th century?
A. Sailing a boat.
B. Producing electricity.
C. Grinding wheat into flour.
D. Pumping water from underground.
62. One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is that .
A. wind power is cleaner
B. it is one of the oldest power sources
C. it was cheaper to create energy from wind
D. the supply of coal and gas failed to meet needs
63. What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. The advantage of wind power.
B. The design of wind power plants.
C. The worldwide movement to save energy.
D. The global trend towards producing power from wind.
【解析】選D。推理判斷題。根據末段句子Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind可知，接下來作者應該談論利用風能發電的情況，因此選擇D項。
LONDON —A British judge on Thursday sentenced a businessman who sold fake (假冒的）bomb detectors (探測器) to 10 years in prison, saying the man hadn’t cared about potentially deadly consequences.
It is believed that James McCormick got about $77. 8 million from the sales of his detectors — which were based on a kind of golf ball finder — to countries including Iraq, Belgium and Saudi Arabia.
McCormick, 57，was convicted (判罪) of cheats last month and sentenced Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London.
“Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people,’’ Judge Richard Hone told McCormick. “You have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt.”
The detectors, sold for up to $ 42,000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air. But in fact they “lacked any grounding in science” and were of no use.
McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya，the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand.
“I never had any bad results from customers,” he said.
39. Why was McCormick sentenced to prison?
A. He sold bombs. B. He caused death of people.
C. He made detectors. D. He cheated in business.
40. According to the judge, what McCormick had done ________ .
A. increased the cost of safeguarding
B. lowered people’s guard against danger
C. changed people’s idea of social security
D. caused innocent people to commit crimes
41. Which of the following is true of the detectors?
A. They have not been sold to Africa.
B. They have caused many serious problems.
C. They can find dangerous objects in water.
D. They don't function on the basis of science.
42. It can be inferred from the passage that McCormick _________ .
A. sold the equipment at a low price
B. was well-known in most countries
C. did not think he had committed the crime
D. had not got such huge profit as mentioned in the text
【語篇解讀】本文是一篇記敘文，題材是新聞報道。本文報道了一條賣假冒炸彈探測器的商人被判10年徒刑的新聞。
| 段落 | 關鍵詞、句 | 大意推測 |
| 第一部分（Para. 1-3） | McCormick, 57，was convicted of cheats last month and sentenced Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London | 新聞案件的簡介：57歲的McCormick上月被起訴詐騙并于周三在倫敦的Old Bailey court法庭被判刑。 |
| 第二部分（Para. 4） | cheating conduct, promoted a false sense of security, contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people | 法官宣判：罪犯的欺騙行為增強了人們虛假的安全感并促使導致給無辜百姓帶來死亡和傷害。 |
| 第三部分（Para. 5-7） | But in fact they “lacked any grounding in science” and were of no use, sold…to… , never had any bad results | 案件細節及當事人的反訴：假冒炸彈探測器被銷往世界各地，但它根本沒有科學依據，也毫無用處。罪犯狡辯假冒產品沒有給用戶帶來任何不良后果。 |
【解析】
39. D。細節理解題。難度：中等。問題是“為什么McCormick被判刑入獄”。根據問題中的關鍵詞sentenced to prison定位原文第一段。第一段說到McCormick是一位商人，生產了假冒的炸彈探測器，這是一種商業欺騙。選項D和其對應，為正確答案。
40. B。細節理解題。難度：難。問題是“根據法官的說法，McCormick的所為導致了什么樣的結果”。根據問題中的關鍵詞according to the judge定位第四段的第一句：your cheating conduct … promoted a false sense of security and … contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people（你的欺騙行為提高了人們虛假的安全感并助推給無辜百姓帶來死亡和傷害）。由此可見，McCormick的行為讓人們有了安全感，但這種安全并不真實。B “降低了人們防范危險的安全意識”符合此意，為正確答案。
41. D。判斷題。難度：難。問題是“下面哪種說法對探測儀來說是正確的”。
解題思路：根據問題中的關鍵詞detectors，把四個選項具體對應到原文中一處。A對應文章倒數第二段的最后一句he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya，the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand。該句中的Kenya是非洲的肯尼亞，否定了A的說法。B對應第一段第一句“the man hadn’t cared about potentially deadly consequences”，法官只說罪犯沒有關注潛在的致命后果，而不是已經導致嚴重的問題。C對應第五段的第一句話“were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air”提示，探測儀的功能只是據說，而不一定真的具備找到水中危險物品的功能。選項D定位第五段的最后一句“in fact they ‘lacked any grounding in science’ and were of no use可知，這種探測儀沒有科學根據，也毫無用途，和D“沒有科學根據的工作原理”相吻合，故最佳答案是D。
42. D。推理判斷題。難度：中等。
解題思路：返回原文，將選項與原文一一進行比較。
本題主要考查第四段和第七段。A“以低價銷售設備”與原文第四段第一句不符，因為該句提到法官指控McCormick通過賣一些無用的設備來巨額利潤。B“在大多數國家很有名”與文中提到的區區幾個國家和地區Iraq，Belgium，Saudi Arabia，Kenya，Hong Kong，Egypt和Thailand購買他的探測儀不符。C“認為他沒有犯罪”和第七段對應，其中他所說的“I never had any bad results from customers”和C符合，Ｃ是正確答案。Ｄ“他沒有賺取文中提到的那么大利潤”在原文沒有語言根據。

So you have been called for an interview---well done?Your effort has been paid off? You will feeI better at the interview if you show an understanding of the nature of the organization．
Ask someone who already does it，or check it with one of the advisers．
Ask a member of your family or a friend to act as the employer and to give you an unreal interview．Be as realistic as possible，answer the questions seriously．Afterwards discuss how it went．Think about how the employer would prefer to see your look．Remember---the majority of employers are over 30.
It is not wise to rush out and buy new clothes.which will be worn for the first time at the interview．You’ll feel more at ease in a familiar dress．
Carelessness in any of these could cost you the job．Arrive at least 15 minutes before time，this will give you a chance to have a look around，read the notice board and get the feel of the place．Being late at the interview produces a bad impression．The first impression that the interviewer gets of you is formed as you walk through the door，so take a couple of deep breaths．
Be ready to shake hands if the interviewer offers．
Don’t take a seat until asked．Then sit comfortably．
Make eye contact when you are greeted and again if you shake hands．And during questioning,eye contact is a form of non-verbal greeting．
Remember the interviewer’s name and use it from time to time．
Be ready for the question “Is there anything you want to ask?” Before the interview you should get ready for two or three such questions．Look on these not just as a chance to get information but as a means to give your employer a better impression．Asking can show knowledge but avoid asking about holidays，pensions(養老金)and so on．It looks as if you are tired even before you begin．You can check on these later，when the hope for job is offered．
And if you fail, look upon the interview as an experience in itself．Learn from it．We wish you good luck and good job hunting．
【小題1】Before you go to see the employer，you’d better .
