About five years ago, Tom was approached by the owners of a competing company, Stereo Super Stores. They wanted him to buy them out. The price was very attractive. Everything looked good. Before making his final decision Tom asked Gloria what she thought about the purchase. She told him that even though the numbers looked good it didn't feel right to her. However, Tom was so self-confident and so convinced that this was a rare opportunity, he went ahead and made the purchase. Within months he discovered that he had made a big mistake. He had paid much too much for a dying company. He tried as hard as he could to make it work out, but he couldn't turn things around. He was forced into bankruptcy(破产). He was about to lose everything, including his original business.

While living in Southsea,he played football for an amateur team,Portsmouth Association Football Club.He was also a keen cricketer(板球队员),an occasional bowler,and also a keen golfer.In December 1893,he wanted to stop writing about Sherlock Holmes and started writing historical novels.So in the story The Final Problem Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty (his enemy) died together in a waterfall.But the public was angry,so Conan Doyle brought Holmes back in the story The Ad v enture of the Empty House.He explained that only Moriarty died.Holmes ultimately appeared in a total of 56 short stories and 4 novels.Apart from detective stories Arthur Conan Doyle also wrote other novels,for example,the science fiction novel The Lost World.Arthur Conan Doyle was found very sick in his house in Crowborough,East Sussex,on 7 July,1930.He soon died of a heart attack.He was 71 years old.1.A.C.Doyle began to write short stories ________.A.as he studied in high schoolB.after he set up a medical practiceC.after he graduated from universityD.when he studied medicine at university2.A Study in Scarlet is ________.A.a historical novelB.a romantic storyC.science fictionD.crime fiction3.The readers were very angry because ________.A.the story was badly writtenB.A.C.Doyle wanted to stop writingC.they didn’t want Sherlock Holmes to dieD.Sherlock Holmes was killed by Moriarty4.What’s the right order of the following events about A.C.Doyle?a.He organized a medical practice in Southsea.b.He had serious illness in East Sussex.c.He started writing historical novels.d.He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh.A.a,b,d,cB.a,c,d,bC.d,a,c,bD.d,c,a,b答案基础落实Ⅰ.1.B 2.D 3.A 4.B 5.AⅡ.1.Appreciating 2.Classics 3.read 4.great writing and wisdom 5.dust 6.thosecation10.AdaptedⅢ.1.to 2.in 3.with 4.in 5.on 6.at7.in8.for;of9.on10.in;withⅣe;out 2.is;set;in 3.is;bent;on 4.on;the;run5.live;up;to能力提升1.D2.D3.C4.C。
