21、Detective fiction is thought to be some people’s reading choice for free time, just like science fiction and historical fiction. But it’s very special in the world of fiction itself. What makes it so is readers will have to think like a detective to try and find the truth. Because of this, it makes these books like a thinking exercise or even a sports activity.

Why is detective fiction attractive? First of all, it is interesting. The exciting stories, especially the process (过程) of solving the mystery makes readers forget about time in it. Second, readers can get lots of information and knowledge from scientific facts to reasoning (推理的) skills, and even social skills! What’s more, it trains readers’ brains to think differently and deeply. Reasoning needs evidence, so one has to do some research and check the collected materials to find a conclusion. Detective fiction helps change our way of thinking and improve our reasoning skills.

When reading detective stories, forensic (法医的) science is seen as an important tool in the stories. The tool and knowledge are used in all kinds of experiments to discover evidence from a crime scene. For example, we can know whom the blood at the crime scene is from according to forensic science. So, while reading the books, we can not only enjoy the stories, but also learn a lot about science and reasoning behind the cases.

Well, since detective fiction is so attractive, does everyone like to read it? One of my friends, Jimmy who doesn’t read detective books once shared his thoughts about them. He believes that such books should not be suggested reading because they might give birth to many young criminals (罪犯). Some people might follow the criminal acts of the characters in the book like killing. But it is unfair. Detective fiction does not teach people to carry out a crime, but just give readers a sense of right and wrong. Why don’t we look at it in a different way? And say that it actually helps us to respect the law and justice (正义) in the world.

【1】The example of “the blood at the crime scene” in Paragraph 3 shows ________.

A．solving the mystery may cost people a lot of time

B．forensic knowledge is important in detective stories

C．reading detective stories requires a lot about science

D．criminals may hurt themselves when they hurt others

【2】The writer’s friend Jimmy dislikes detective books because he thinks ________.

A．they are unattractive to him

B．stories about killing are scary

C．reading them waste too much energy

D．they may set a bad example for the young

【3】According to this passage, the writer may agree that ________.

A．detective fiction help us to build a sense of justice

B．detective stories are better than other kinds of books

C．people shouldn’t be advised to read detective fiction

D．people can’t read detective fiction without reasoning skills

22、“You got a letter from your new teacher,” said Mum.

“What kind of letter?” asked Valerie. “I hope it’s not homework.”

Mum scanned the letter and said, “On the first day of school, Mrs. Jeffrey wants you to bring a personal object from home.”

It wasn’t bad homework for Valerie. She didn’t have to write a report. But she had no idea what to bring. She went to her room and looked around. There was a teddy bear, but the class would think she was a baby if they found out she still slept with the bear. She had lots of books, but none seemed special enough to bring to school. Then she saw her baseball. She played it for a long time,” said Valerie.

The next day, Valerie got a letter from her aunt Heather. She read the letter first. “Here are some postcards from every place I visited this summer…”

Valerie always wanted to travel all over the world with her aunt.

“It’s fine to bring your baseball to school, but maybe these postcards will tell the class more about you,” said Mum.

“But I’ve never been to any of these places,” said Valerie.

“But you want to visit them. Talking about the plan of your trip sounds like a great way for everyone to know you better,” said Mum.

“I agree with you,” said Valerie.

D．②③⑤

A．Because she thought they were very beautiful.
