　　Eleven-year-old Angela was suffering from illness which was bad to her nerve(神經(jīng))system．She was unable to walk and her movement was restricted(限制)in other ways as well．The doctors did not hold out much hope of her ever becoming better from this illness．They thought she'd spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair(輪椅)．They said that few, if any, were able to come back to normal after having this disease．The little girl was undaunted(不泄氣)．There, lying in her hospital bed, she would tell anyone who'd listen that she was surely going to be walking again some day．

　　She was taken to a better hospital in the San Francisco Bay area．Every treatment was used in her case．The doctors were pleased and encouraged by her undefeatable spirit．They taught her about imagining(想象)－about seeing herself walking．If it would do nothing else, it would at least give her hope and something helpful to do in the long waking hours in her bed．Angela would work as hard as possible in any proposed treatment．But she worked just as hard lying there carefully doing her imagining, imagining herself moving, moving, moving!

　　One day, as she was imagining her legs moving again, it seemed as if a miracle(奇跡)happened：The bed moved!It began to move around the room!She screamed out,“Look what I'm doing!Look!Look!I can do it!I moved, I moved!”

　　Of course, at this very moment everyone else in the hospital was screaming, too, and running for cover．People were screaming, equipment was falling and glass was breaking．You see, it was the San Francisco earthquake．But don't tell that to Angela．She thought firmly that she did it．And now only a few years later, she's back in school．You see, anyone who can shake the earth between San Francisco and Oakland can conquer(征服)such a little disease, can't they?

閱讀理解

　　Detective stories are popular everywhere, and some of the world's best-telling writers have written detective stories．They have also often been women．The stories of Agatha Christie, for example, have been translated into most languages, and so have those of Ruth Rendell．

　　Some people think that the Sherlock Holmes stories, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, were the first detective stories ever written．In fact, the first such story was published much earlier than the first Sherlock Holmes story, in 1841．It was written by the American writer Edgar Allan Poe and called The Murders in the Rue Morgue．The fictional detective was a Frenchman, Auguste Dupin, and the story was set in France．This was because at that time only in France were there such people as private detectives．

　　The first detective novel－long story－was not published until 1856．It was called Recollections of a Detective Police Officer by Waters．Although it pretended to be a true life story of a real police officer called‘Waters’, it was wholly fiction and was written by William Russell．

　　The first fictional detective to appear in a novel－though the novel itself was not a detective story－was Inspector Bucket in Charles Dicken's novel, Bleak House．The first detective novel to be written by a writer who was already famous for other kinds of novel writhing was The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins．The detective in this novel was called Sergeant Cuff and was based on a well-known real life detective of the time, Superintendent Foley．

　　Wilkie Collins also created the first woman detective in his novel, No Name, though she was not an important character in the book．The first detective novel to have a female detective as the main character was The Recollections of a Lady Detective by Anon．The word‘Anon’is short for‘anonymous’which means‘unnamed’, so we do not know who wrote this noel．

　　The first really successful female writer of detective fiction was an American, Anna Katherine Green．By the time she died in 1935, she had written over 30 detective novels．Sadly, no one reads her works today and she is almost wholly forgotten．

(1)

The passage is about ________．

[　　]

A．

female detective writers

people do not understand them

C．

people do not like them

D．

they are popular

(3)

the first detective story

B．

in French

about a real detective
