In 1977, a dead author of detective stories saved the life of a 19-month-old baby in a most unusual way. The author was Agatha Christie, one of the most successful writers of detective stories in the world.
In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Qatar, near Saudi Arabia. Doctors were unable to find out the cause of her illness with confidence, so she was sent to Hammersmith Hospital in London. She was then only semi-conscious (半清醒状态) and on the "Dangerously Ill" list. A team of doctors hurried to examine the baby only to discover that they, too, were confused by the very unusual symptoms (症状). While they were discussing the baby's case, a nurse asked to speak to them.
"Excuse me," said Nurse Marsha Maitlan, "but I think the baby is suffering from thallium poisoning. (铊中毒)"
"What makes you think that?" Dr. Brown asked. "Thallium poisoning is extremely rare."
"A few days ago, I was reading a novel called A Pale Horse by Agatha Christie," Nurse Maitlan explained. "In the book, somebody uses thallium poison, and all the symptoms are described. They're exactly the same as the baby's."
"You're very thoughtful and you may be right," another doctor said. "We'll carry out some tests and find out whether it's thallium or not."
Tests showed that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium, a rare metallic substance used in making special glass. Once they knew the cause of the illness, the doctors were able to give the baby the correct treatment. She soon recovered and was sent back to Qatar. Later it was reported that the poison might have come from an insecticide (杀虫剂) used in Qatar.
1.The one who first suggested the correct cause of the baby's illness was _____.
A.a doctor in Qatar |
B.Nurse Maitlan |
C.Dr. Brown |
D.Agatha Christie |
2.The baby was sent to London because _____.
A.she was born there |
B.the hospitals in Qatar were full at that time |

D.the Qatar doctors were not sure whether they could cure her |
3.As far as we can tell from the passage, Agatha Christie _____.
A.had never met this baby |
B.had spent a long time studying the baby's case |
C.visited the baby in the hospital at Hammersmith |
D.gave Nurse Maitlan some advice on the phone |
4.It seems likely from the passage that the baby's illness had something to do with _____.
A.a dangerous pair of glasses |
B.the water in Qatar |
C.a harmful substance used to kill insects |
D.a dead writer |
5.When the baby was sent to the hospital in London, her case was considered to be _____.

You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars or even catch fire, are professionals (专业人士). They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.
Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action, for nowadays there are stunt girls too!
1.Stuntmen are those who ______.
A.often dress up as women |
B.prefer to lead dangerous lives |
C.often perform seemingly (表面上) dangerous actions |
D.often fight each other for their lives |
2.Stuntmen earn their living by ______.
A.playing their dirty tricks |
B.selling their special skills |
C.jumping out of high windows |
D.jumping from fast moving trains |
3.When a stuntman falls from a high building, ______.
A.he needs little protection |
B.he will be covered with a mattress |
C.his life is endangered |
D.his safety is generally all right |
4.Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance?
A.Strength. |
B.Exactness. |
C.Speed. |
D.Power. |
5.What can be inferred from the author' s example of the Norwegian stuntman?
A.Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman. |
B.The percentage of serious accidents is high. |
C.Parachutes must be of good quality. |
D.The cliff is too high. |
