I gave the papers back to Holmes, and he put them away. "So,Watson, what can you tell me?" he asked. I thought for a minute. "This cut on Straker's leg, perhaps he did it with his own knife. When something hits you very hard on the head, and you have a knife in your hand… It can happen,you know." "Very good, Watson, and that's bad news for Fitzroy Simpson." "So,did Simpson do it? do you think?" I said. "Perhaps,"said Holmes, "Let's look at it. Simpson puts opium in the boy's dinner. He goes away and comes back later in the night. He gets into the stables, takes the horse out, and leaves. But the trainer arrives at that moment, sees him,and follows him. The two men fight, and Simpson breaks Straker's head open with his stick. Then Simpson takes the horse. But where or did the horse run away? Is it still out on the moor? And how did Simpson get into the locked stables? I don't know, Watson, I don't know, we must wait and see." When we arrived at Tavistock Station, two men came to meet us. Inspector Gregory was a tall, slow-moving man with blue eyes. And Mr. Ross was small and quick. He was the first to speak, "Very pleased to see you, Mr. Holmes. The Inspector here is working hard, but we need help. We must find poor Straker's killer and I want to find my horse." "Is there any news?" asked Holmes. "Let's talk on the way," the Inspector said, "I'd like you to see everything in the daylight." We were soon out of the little town and upon the brown hills of the moor. Inspector Gregory thought that the killer was Fitzroy Simpson. "Simpson was out in the rain that night. His suit was still wet on the Tuesday."he said, "He had a big stick, and his scarf was in the dead man's hand.That looks bad, Mr. Holmes, very bad." Holmes smiled, "You need more than that, Inspector. The servant Edith,spoke of an envelope, did Simpson say anything about that?" "Yes,he said it had money in it, a £10 note for the stable boy. "What about this other training stables at Capleton?" asked Holmes, "Does Simpson have friends there?" "No,we don't think so, we went to Capleton of course. Their horse Desbrough is the second favorite for the Wessex Cup, and Silas Brown, the trainer, was not friendly with Straker, but we found nothing when we arrived at King's Pyland." Inspector Gregory took us into the trainer's house. "Straker's body is upstairs," he said, "But we have here the things from his pockets and from the ground next to his body. Would you like to see them, Mr.Holmes?" "Very much." said Holmes. We went into the front room, and the Inspector opened a box and put things on a table. There was a box of matches, a small piece of candle, some money, a watch, some papers and a small thin knife. "This is a strange knife." Holmes said. He looked at it carefully and then gave it to me. "What is it, Watson?" "It's an eye knife," I said, "Doctors use these when they cut into an eye. You don't usually see them outside a hospital." "Mm,"said Holmes, "So why did Straker take this knife? It's no good for fighting," "His wife says it was in the bedroom for some days," said Inspector Gregory, "Perhaps he just took it, because it was there on the table." "Perhaps,"said Holmes, "What about these papers?" "One is a letter from Mr. Ross, the others are bills," the Inspector said, "Three of them are bills for the horse's food, and this one is a bill from a dressmaker in London for a Mr. William Derbyshire. He was a friend of Straker's, his wife tells us. His letters sometimes came here and Straker sent them on." "Mrs.William Derbyshire is an expensive lady," said Holmes, looking at the bill, "£25 is a lot of money for just one dress and one hat." He put the bill down and moved to the window. "Inspector,can we go out on the moor now before the light begins to go?" We left the room, and at the front door, we saw a woman. She came up to Inspector Gregory, and put her hand on his arm. "Is there any news?" She said. "No,Mrs. Straker, but here is Mr. Holmes-the famous detective from London. We have him to help us now." "I think I met you a month or two ago, Mrs. Straker," said Holmes, "Let me see… Yes, it was in Plymouth, at a garden party, do you remember?" "No,sir, that wasn't me." "But I remember so well… You had a blue dress and a dark blue hat with white flowers on it." "I don't have a hat with flowers on it, sir. " Mrs. Straker said. "Well,well, I am wrong, then. I am so sorry," Andwith that, Holmes followed the inspector outside. Thefour of us, then walked past the stables and up onto the moor. Afterten minutes, Inspector Gregory stopped. "Herewe are," he said, "Straker's body was down there, his coat was hereon this small tree…" "Onthe tree, not on the ground?" Holmes asked, "Oh, no, it was on the tree, carefully away from the mud on the ground." "Mm.Interesting," said Holmes. "Now I must look at the mud down there." "Ah," said Inspector Gregory, "And to help you, I have here in this bag one of Straker's shoes, one of Fitzroy Simpson's shoes,and one of Silver Blaze's horseshoes." "My dear inspector, well done!" Holmes was very pleased, "You'll think of everything for some minutes." Holmes looked carefully at the ground, his eyes only centimeters away from the mud. "Hello," he said suddenly, "What's this from out of the mud?" He took a match, or a small piece of one. "Now why didn't I find that?" said the inspector. "I knew it was there, you see." said Holmes. "You knew, but how could you know that?" Holmes smiled, but did not answer. He then took the shoes, got down on the ground, and began to look at all the tracks in the mud. We stood and watched, but after five minutes Mr. Ross looked at his watch. "This is very interesting, Mr. Holmes," he said, "But is it going to take a long time?" "No."said Holmes, he got to his feet. "I don't need to do any more here. Watson and I are going to take a little walk across the moor now with the horse shoe." Mr.Ross looked at the Inspector. "Can we go back to the house and talk? I must take Silver Blaze's name out of the Wessex Cup race, and do it today, I think." "Don't do that," cried Holmes. "No, no, you must leave the horse's name in for the race." "But…"Mr. Ross began, then he laughed a little angrily, "Well, thank you, Mr.Holmes, thank you for your help. See you later then at the house." And he and the inspector walked away. 翻译 第三章:约翰·斯特雷克的口袋 "嗯,很有意思,"我说。我把卷案还给福尔摩斯,他将它们收了起来。 "那么,华生,你有什么看法?"他问。 我想了想。"斯特雷克腿上的那个伤口没准是他自己的刀划的。如果有什么东西猛撞你的头,你手上又正好拿着把刀......你知道,很有可能。" "很好,华生。这对菲茨罗伊·辛普森来说可不是个好消息。" "那你觉得是辛普森干的吗?"我问道。 "有可能。"福尔摩斯说,"让我们想想,辛普森在那个小马倌的晚餐里下了鸦片。他先离开,夜里晚些时候又回来,进入马厩,把马牵出来,然后逃走。但那时驯马师刚好赶到,看见了他,并紧追不舍。两个人打了起来,辛普森用手杖把斯特雷克的头打开了花。然后辛普森带走了那匹马--但带到哪里去了?还是马自己跑了?它是不是还在高沼地里?还有,辛普森怎么进到上了锁的马厩里的?我不知道,华生,我不知道。我们必须等等看。" 我们到塔维斯托克车站时,有两个人来接我们。 格雷戈里巡官个子高高的,动作缓慢,有一双蓝色的眼睛。 罗斯先生是小个子,性子很急。 他首先开口。"福尔摩斯先生,很高兴见到你。这位巡官很卖力,但我们需要帮助。我们必须找出杀害可怜的斯特雷克的凶手,我还想找到我的马。" "有什么新的消息吗?"福尔摩斯问道。 "我们在路上说吧,"巡官说,"我想让你趁白天看看所有的情况。" 我们很快就出了小镇,到了沼泽地里的棕色小山上。 格雷戈里巡官认为凶手就是菲茨罗伊·辛普森。 "那天晚上下雨的时候辛普森在外面。他的外套到星期二还是湿的,"他说,"他有一根粗大的手杖,他的围巾又在死者手里。看上去不妙,福尔摩斯先生,非常不妙。" 福尔摩斯笑了笑。"你还需要更多证据,巡官。那个佣人,伊迪丝,提到了一个信封。辛普森对此说了什么吗?" "说了,他说里边有钱--一张十英镑的钞票,给小马倌的。" "卡普莱顿的另一个训练马厩情形怎么样?"福尔摩斯问道,"辛普森在那儿有没有什么朋友?" "没有,我们以为没有。当然,我们也去了卡普莱顿。他们的马,德斯伯勒,是韦塞克斯杯的第二大热门,驯马师赛拉斯·布朗跟斯特雷克关系不好。但我们没发现什么。" 我们到达金斯皮兰以后,格雷戈里巡官把我们带到驯马师的家里。 "斯特雷克的尸体在楼上,"他说,"但我们把他口袋里的东西,还有在他身边地上找到的东西放在这儿。你想看看吗,福尔摩斯先生?" "很想。"福尔摩斯说。 我们走进前厅,巡官打开一个盒子,把里边的东西放到一张桌子上。有一盒火柴,一小段蜡烛,一些钱,一块表,几张纸,还有一把很薄的小刀。 "这把刀很奇怪,"福尔摩斯说。他仔细地看了看,然后把刀递给我。"这是什么,华生?" "这是一把眼科手术刀,"我说,"医生给眼睛动手术的时候就用这样的刀。一般在医院外面见不到这样的刀。" "嗯,"福尔摩斯说,"那斯特雷克拿这刀做什么呢?它并不适合打斗。" "他妻子说这把刀在卧室里已经放了一段时间了,"格雷戈里巡官说,"也许只是因为它在桌子上,他就顺手拿了。" "也许,"福尔摩斯说,"那些纸是什么?" "一张是罗斯先生的信,其他的是账单,"巡官说,"其中有三张是马饲料的账单,这张是伦敦的一个裁缝寄来的账单,是给一个名叫威廉·达比希雷的人的。斯特雷克的妻子告诉我们,他是斯特雷克的朋友。有时他的信会寄到这儿,斯特雷克再转寄出去。" "威廉·达比希雷夫人是位出手阔绰的女士,"福尔摩斯看着账单说,"一件衣服和一顶帽子就花了25英镑,这可是一大笔钱呢。" 他放下账单,走到窗户边。"巡官,趁着天色还没暗下去,我们能现在去高沼地吗?" 我们离开了房间。在大门口,我们看见一个女人。她走向格雷戈里巡官,拉住他的手臂。 "有什么消息吗?"她问。 "没有,斯特雷克夫人,不过福尔摩斯先生在这儿,他是伦敦来的著名侦探。我们现在有他帮忙了。" "我想一两个月前我曾经见过你,斯特雷克夫人。"福尔摩斯说,"让我想想......对,是在普利茅斯的一个游园会上。你还记得吗?" "没有,先生,那不是我。" "但我记得很清楚......你穿着蓝色的衣服,戴着一顶深蓝色的帽子,上面有白色的花。" "我没有上面带花的帽子,先生。"斯特雷克夫人说。 "哦,那是我记错了。对不起。"福尔摩斯说着,跟着巡官出了门。 然后,我们四个人经过马厩,走到高沼地上。十分钟后,格雷戈里巡官停了下来。 "就是这儿,"他说,"斯特雷克的尸体就在这儿,他的外套在这边,挂在这棵小树上。" "在树上?不在地上?"福尔摩斯问道。 "哦,不是。是在树上,小心地避开了地上的泥泞。" "嗯,真有意思,"福尔摩斯说,"现在,我必须看看那边的泥地。" "啊,"格雷戈里巡官说,"为了协助你,我在这个包里装了一只斯特雷克的鞋,一只菲茨罗伊的鞋,还有一只'银光'的蹄铁。" "亲爱的巡官,太棒了!"福尔摩斯非常高兴。"你考虑得真周到。" 福尔摩斯仔细地检查了地面足足几分钟,他的眼睛离泥地只有几厘米。 "噢!"他突然说道,"这是什么?" 他从泥里捡起一根火柴,或者说是一小截火柴棍。 "我怎么就没发现呢?"巡官说。 "我知道它会在这儿,你瞧。"福尔摩斯说。 "你知道?但你怎么可能知道呢?" 福尔摩斯笑了笑,但没回答。 然后他拿起那些鞋,趴在地上,开始查看地上所有的痕迹。 我们站在那儿看着他,但五分钟后,罗斯先生看了看表。 "呃,这很有意思,福尔摩斯先生,"他说,"但是不是还要很长时间?" "不会。"福尔摩斯说。 他站了起来。"我不用再在这儿做什么了。现在华生和我要在高沼地里走走,带着这块马蹄铁。" 罗斯先生看着巡官,"我们能回房子里谈谈吗?我得把'银光'的名字从韦塞克斯杯的参赛名单里撤下来--我想,今天就得这么做。" "别那么做!"福尔摩斯叫道,"不,不,你必须把马的名字留在参赛名单里。" "但是......"罗斯先生开了个头,然后有点儿恼火地笑了起来。"啊,谢谢,福尔摩斯先生。谢谢你的帮助。那就过一会儿在家里见。" 然后他跟巡官一起走了。

When are you going to do some work, my son?” 每天晚上,他的母亲都会对他说:“哦,阿拉丁,阿拉丁,你真是个懒孩子,一无是处。儿子,你什么时候才能做点正事啊?” But Aladdin never listen to his mother. 但阿拉丁从不听他母亲的话。 One day in the market, there was an old man in a long black coat. 有一天在市场上,有一位穿着黑色长大衣的老人。 Aladdin did not see him, but the old man watched Aladdin very carefully. 阿拉丁没有看见他,但老人却非常仔细地观察着阿拉丁。 After some minutes, he went up to an orange cellar and asked that boy in the green coat, “Who is he?” 几分钟后,他走到一个橙色的地窖前,问那个穿绿外套的男孩:“他是谁?” “Aladdin, son of Mustafa, was the answer.” “阿拉丁,穆斯塔法的儿子,这就是答案。” The old man moved away. 老人走开了。 “Yes.”, he said quietly, “Yes, that is the boy, the right name and the right father. “ “是的。”他平静地说,“没错,就是那个男孩,名字和父亲都没错。” Then he called out to Aladdin, “Boy, come here for a minute. Is your name Aladdin? Aladdin, Son of Mustafa.” 然后他叫住了阿拉丁,“孩子,过来一下。你叫阿拉丁吗?阿拉丁,穆斯塔法的儿子。” Aladdin left his friends and came to the old man. 阿拉丁离开他的朋友们,来到老人面前。 “Yes.”, he said, “I am Aladdin, son of Mustafa, but my father is dead. He died five years ago.” “是的。”他说,“我是阿拉丁,穆斯塔法的儿子,但我父亲已经去世了。他五年前去世了。” “Dead?”, said the old man, “no, no.” “死了?”老人说,“不,不。” He put his face in his hands and began to cry. 他双手掩面,开始哭泣。 “Why are you crying?”, asked Aladdin, “Did you know my father?” “你为什么哭啊?”阿拉丁问道,“你认识我父亲吗?” The old man looked up. 老人抬起头来。 “Mustafa was my brother.”, he said, “I wanted to see him again, and now you tell me he is dead? Oh, this is not a happy day for me.” “穆斯塔法是我的兄弟。”他说,“我想再见到他,现在你却告诉我他死了?哦,今天对我来说真不是个好日子。” Then he put his hand on Aladdin's arm. 然后,他把手放在了阿拉丁的胳膊上。 “But here is my brother's son, and I can see Mustafa in your face. My boy Aladdin, I am your uncle Abenaza.” “但这是我兄弟的儿子,我能从你的脸上看到穆斯塔法的影子。我的孩子阿拉丁,我是你的叔叔阿贝纳扎。” “My uncle?”, said Aladdin. “我叔叔?”阿拉丁说。 He was very surprised. 他非常惊讶。 “Did my father have a brother? I didn't know that.” “我父亲有兄弟吗?我之前都不知道。” “I went away before you were born, my boy.”, said the old man. “孩子,你出生前我就离开家了。”老人说道。 “Look.”, he took 10 pieces of gold out of his bag and put them into Aladdin's hands, “Go home to your mother and give this money to her. Tell her about me and say this. Her husband's brother wants to meet her and he is going to visit her tomorrow.” “听着。”他从包里拿出10枚金币,塞到阿拉丁手里,“回家找你妈妈,把这钱给她。跟她讲讲我的事,并告诉她这些。她丈夫的兄弟想见见她,他明天会去拜访她。” Ten pieces of gold is a lot of money, and Aladdin was very happy. 十枚金币是一大笔钱,阿拉丁非常高兴。 He ran home quickly and gave the gold to his mother. 他飞快地跑回家,把金子交给了妈妈。 At first, she was afraid. 起初,她很害怕。 “Where did you get this, Aladdin? Did you find it? It isn't our money, you must give it back.” “阿拉丁,你从哪里弄到这个的?是你捡到的吗?这不是我们的钱,你必须还回去。” “But it is our money, mother.”, said Aladdin, “My uncle, my father's brother, gave the money to us. Uncle Abenaza is coming to visit us tomorrow.” “但这是我们的钱,妈妈。”阿拉丁说道,“是我叔叔,也就是我父亲的兄弟,把钱给我们的。阿贝纳扎叔叔明天要来拜访我们。” “Who? You don't have an uncle Abenaza.” “谁?你没有阿贝纳扎叔叔啊。” “But he knows my name and my father's name.”, Aladdin said, “And he gave ten pieces of gold to me. He's very nice, you must make a good dinner for him.” “但他知道我的名字和我父亲的名字。”阿拉丁说道,“他还给了我十枚金币。他人真好,你一定要为他准备一顿丰盛的晚餐。” The next day, Abenaza arrived at Aladdin's house. 第二天,阿贝纳扎来到了阿拉丁的家。 “My sister.”, he said and smiled, “My dead brother's wife. I am happy to find you and Aladdin.” “我妹妹。”他说道,并微笑着,“我已故哥哥的妻子。很高兴能找到你和阿拉丁。” “Sit down, Abenaza. We're happy to see you in our poor home.”, Aladdin's mother said. “阿贝纳扎,请坐。很高兴你能来我们这个简陋的家做客。”阿拉丁的妈妈说。 She put meat, rice and fruit on the table, “But I don't understand why did my husband never speak about you?” 她把肉、米饭和水果放在桌子上,“但我不明白,为什么我丈夫从不提起你?” “I'm sorry, my sister, when we were young, my brother and I were not friends for many years. Then I went away to a far country. I am an old man now and wanted to see my brother again and take his hand, but he is dead and I cannot speak to him or say goodbye to him now.” “对不起,我的妹妹,在我们小时候,我和我哥哥多年不和。后来我去了一个遥远的国度。我现在已经是个老人了,想再见见我哥哥,牵牵他的手,但他已经去世了,我现在不能和他说话,也不能和他道别。” Abenaza had tears in his eyes and Aladdin's mother began to cry too. 阿贝纳扎眼里含着泪水,阿拉丁的妈妈也开始哭了起来。 “But I am home again now.”, the old man said, “And I can help my brother's wife and his son because I am a rich man.” “但我现在又回到家了。”老人说道,“而且因为我现在是个有钱人,所以我可以帮助我嫂子和他的儿子。” He looked at Aladdin. “Aladdin, my boy, what work do you do?” 他看着阿拉丁说:“阿拉丁,我的孩子,你做什么工作?” Aladdin did not answer and his face was red. 阿拉丁没有回答,他的脸红了。 “Oh, don't ask Aladdin questions about work.”, his mother said, “He never works, he plays with his friends all day and only comes home when he is hungry.” “哦,别问阿拉丁工作的事。”他妈妈说,“他从不工作,整天和朋友玩,只有饿了才回家。” “Well, my boy, tomorrow we must get a new coat for you, then we can talk about work. Would you like to have a shop in the market perhaps?” “好啦,孩子,明天我们得给你买件新外套,然后我们再谈工作的事。你愿不愿意在市场上开个店?” Aladdin smiled. 阿拉丁笑了。 “A shop?”, he thought, “And me, a rich market seller, why not?” “开个店?”他想,“我,一个富有的市场卖家,为什么不呢?”

But these majors are very different. You probably will have to take more classes and prepare for more exams. And you would be graduating a year later. W: Oh no! I hate graduating later than all my friends. I'd better stick to my present major then. (Text8) W: Hey Mark, I'm putting you on anew project. You have to go to California. M: What should I do there? W: You have to collect and review the sales data from all the branch stores. If you find something missing, work with their sales managers to get the information you need to complete the analysis. M: Sounds like a lot of work. W: It's a pretty big project, so take someone with you. I think you can finish in a week if the two of you are working on it. M: When should we start off? W: You needn't hurry so much.I'll give you two days for preparations and packing up. M: Who should I get in touch with when I get there? W: Lisa. I'll email you the necessary information. M: Who do you suggest should go with me? W: Either Jack or Peter. M: Let's say Peter. He's just finished his project, and he is more experienced. W: Great. Keep me updated. (Text9) W: Good evening. Welcome to Around The Globe with Susan Davidson. Our guest today is Charlie Hamilton, a photographer who spent a month and a half in the Amazon. He's going to share with us the challenges and responsibilities of his work. Charlie, the Amazon people have rarely seen people from outside, and you look so different. How do you approach them? M: That's true, but if you spend enough time, you get to know them. Actually, we can laugh about the same things even if we can't talk. W: One of your pictures I really like shows the villagers and you together by a river, laughing. They're seeing no barrier at all. M: Indeed. That was only a couple of days after I went there, but everyone was just relaxed with me. We're all having fun. In fact, what I like most is everyone's laughing. Nowadays, we tend to show the unhappy side of people's life in the Amazon. The trees are being cut down, and these people are sad. But what I want to show is they still have fun. W: That's a really special point of view. Thank you for letting us get closer to our fellow beings around the globe. (Text10) W: Hi everyone. It is raining now. We have to give up our plans for a boat trip along the River Thames and walk along the south bank. But the good news is we still have a huge selection of world-class museums. And many of them are free for visitors. You know, the UK's capital isn't a bad place to spend a rainy day. So our rainy tour of London's museums today starts in the science and national history museums of west London and finishes at the National Gallery. We'll start our museum tour in the heart of London, South Kensington. South Kensington is well known for its old buildings, fantastic restaurants, and many designer shops. But the real reason visitors flood here is for the chance to experience three of the city's best museums: Victoria and Albert Museum, the National History Museum, and the Science Museum. All of them happen to be within walking distance from one another, so you won't get wet. Today, it happens to be the last Thursday of the month, so we can enjoy free guided tours, talks, and events at the National History Museum. Remember, we have to leave there at 1:00 p.m. Finally, we'll arrive at the National Gallery. It's an 1800's building, home to over 2000 works of art by famous painters like Leonardo da Vinci, Claude Monet, and Vincent van Gogh.

On Monday evening, Straker locked the stables at nine o'clock the usual time. Two of the boys then walked up to the trainer's house for their dinner. But the third boy, Ned Hunter, stayed in the stables to watch the horses. At five past nine, the Strakers' servant, a girl called Edith Baxter, carried Ned Hunter's dinner down to the stables. The dinner that night was a hot meat curry. Edith was nearly at the stables, when a man called out to her. He came up to her, and she saw a tall man in a gray suit and a hat, and a red and black scarf. He carried a big walking stick, and Edith felt afraid of him. "Where am I?" the man asked, "What is this place?" "This is King's Pyland, training stables." she said. "Good," said the man, "Now, a stable boy sleeps here every night, is that right? And I think you're taking his dinner to him now." He took an envelope out of his pocket. "Please give the boy this and you can have some money for a beautiful new dress." Edith did not take the envelope. She ran past the man to the stables and up to a small open window. She always put the boy's dinner through this window, and Ned Hunter was there,ready to take it. "Oh, Ned!" Edith cried, but before she could say any more, the stranger came up behind her. "Good evening," he said through the window to the boy, "I want to talk to you." "Who are you, what do you want?" Ned Hunter said. "I want to make you rich, boy," the stranger said, "You help me and I help you. You have two horses in for the Wessex Cup- silver Blaze and Bayard. I hear that Bayard is the better horse and that you stable boys are putting your bets on him to win, am I right?" "I'm not saying anything," cried Ned Hunter, "We don't talk about our horses at King's Pyland. So get out, I'm getting the dog now." Ned ran across the stables to get the dog, and Edith began to run back to the house. But she looked back after about 30 meters and saw the man at the little window with his head and one arm inside the room. Edith ran on, and a minute later, Ned came out of the building and locked the door behind him. He ran all-round the stables with the dog, but the man was gone. Ned Hunter told the trainer and the other boys about the stranger, but no one saw him again. The next thing happened at one o'clock in the morning, when John Straker got out of bed. "What's the matter," said his wife, "Where are you going?" "To the stables," Straker said, "I can't stop thinking about that stranger, I just want to have a look around." "But it's raining, wait until the rain stops." she said. "No,no," Straker said, "I want to go now." He left the house and Mrs. Straker went back to sleep. At seven in the morning, she woke up, but her husband was not there. She quickly got up, called the servant-Edith, and they ran down to the stables. They found the stables unlocked, Straker was not there. And inside on a chair, Ned Hunter slept like a dead man. Silver Blaze was gone and his stable door was open. They called the other two boys from the room over the stables. They were good sleepers and heard nothing in the night. Nobody could wake Ned Hunter, so the two women and the boys ran out to look for the trainer and the horse. Five hundred from the stables, they saw Straker's coat on a small tree. Down the hill, just past the tree, they found the trainer. He was dead. There was a long cut in his leg, and his head was broken in three places. In his right hand, he had a small knife with blood all over it. And in his left hand, he had a red and black scarf. Edith Baxter knew the scarf at once, and later so did Ned Hunter. "It's the strangest scarf," he told us, "When I went to get the dog, that stranger was still at the stable window. He put something in my meat curry to make me sleep, I know he did.Edith saw him with his arm through the window." Ned Hunter was right about his meat curry. There were some of his dinner left, and we found a lot of opium in it, that's why Ned slept like a dead man. What about the horse? We found his tracks in the mud next to Straker's dead body. But what happened then? Someone hit streak on the head and killed him. Did that person take the horse away? Did the horse run away? Everybody on Dartmoor is looking for Silver Blaze, but there is no news of him. When I began work on the case on Tuesday, we looked for the stranger. He was in Tavistock and we found him easily. His name is Fitzroy Simpson, he lives mostly in London and makes his money at the races taking bets. We looked in his betting book and found a number of big bets, £5000 against the favorite for the Wessex Cup. These were his answers to my questions. "Why did you come down to Dartmoor?" "I'm a betting man, Inspector. I need to know about the horses for the Wessex Cupsilver blaze, Bayard, and Desborough-the horse at Silas Brown's stables. He is the second favorite for the race, you see." "Did you go to the King's Pyland stables late on Monday evening?" "Yes,I did. I just wanted to ask the stable boys some questions; they know the horses better than anyone." "And is this your scarf?" "Yes,yes, it is." "And how did it get into the dead man's hand? Mr. Simpson, can you tell us that?" "I don't know, Inspector, I don't know, I never saw the man. I lost my scarf in the dark. It wasn't me, Inspector, it wasn't me." We asked many more questions, but Fitzroy Simpson did not change his story. He was out at King's Pyland that night, his suit was still wet from the rain, and his big walking stick could break a man's head open, but there were no cuts on his body. So where did the blood on Straker's knife come from? And where is the horse? 翻译 第二章:周一晚上的金斯皮兰 格雷戈里巡官与伊道丝·巴克斯特、内德·亨特、约翰·斯特雷克夫人以及菲茨罗伊·辛普森先生谈话以后的记录。 星期一晚上,斯特雷克跟平常一样9点就锁了马厩。然后有两个小马倌走到驯马师家里吃晚餐,而第三个小马倌内德·亨特留在马厩照看马匹。 9点5分,斯特雷克的佣人,一个名叫伊迪丝·巴克斯特的女孩子把内德·亨特的晚餐送到马厩。 那天晚上的晚餐是热的咖哩烧肉。 伊迪丝快到马厩的时候,一个人向她打招呼。 他走近她,伊迪丝看见一个高个子男人,穿着一件灰色外套,戴着帽子,围着一条黑红相间的围巾,手里拿着一根粗大的手杖。 伊迪丝觉得有点儿害怕。 "我这是在哪儿?"那个人问道,"这是什么地方?" "这是金斯皮兰的训练马厩。"伊迪丝回答道。 "太好了!"那个人说。"那么,一个小马倌每天晚上睡在这儿--对吗?我猜你这是要去给他送晚餐吧。" 他从口袋里掏出一个信封。"请把这个交给那个男孩儿,你就可以得到一笔钱买身漂亮衣服了。" 伊迪丝没拿那个信封。 她从那个人身旁跑过去,跑到马厩那儿的一扇开着的小窗前。 她一般都从这扇窗户将小马倌的晚餐递进去,内德·亨特已经在那儿准备取饭了。 "噢,内德!"伊迪丝叫道,但她还没来得及说别的,那个陌生人已经来到了她身后。 "晚上好,"他隔着窗户对那个男孩说,"我想跟你谈谈。" "你是谁?你想干什么?"内德·亨特说。 "我想让你发财,孩子,"那个陌生人说,"你要是帮我,我就会帮你。你们有两匹马要参加韦塞克斯杯--'银光'和贝亚德。我听说贝亚德更好,你们这帮小马倌都在它身上下了注。对吗?" "我不会透露任何事!"内德·亨特叫道,"我们不会在金斯皮兰谈论自己的马,快走开!我要放狗了!" 内德穿过马厩去牵狗,伊迪丝开始回头往房子里跑。 但她跑了大约30米后,回头看见那个人站在那扇小窗子边,头和一只胳膊伸进了房间里。 伊迪丝继续往回跑,很快内德就出来了,顺手锁了门。 他带着狗绕马厩跑了一圈,但那个人已经不见了。 内德·亨特跟驯马师和其他的马倌说了那个陌生人的事,但再没人看到那个人。 第二件事发生在凌晨1点。约翰·斯特雷克从床上爬了起来。 "怎么了?"他妻子说,"你要去哪儿?" "去马厩看看,"斯特雷克说,"我老想着那个陌生人。我想去看看。" "可天在下雨呢。等雨停了再去吧。"她说。 "不,不,"斯特雷克说,"我就想现在去。" 他离开了房子,斯特雷克夫人接着睡觉。 早上7点,她醒了过来,但她丈夫不在。 她马上起床,叫来了佣人伊迪丝,一起往马厩跑去。 她们发现马厩没锁。 斯特雷克不在,内德·亨特在里边一张椅子上睡得跟死人一样。 "银光"也不见了,它所在的马厩开着门。 她们叫醒了睡在马厩顶上房间里的另外两个小马倌。 他俩都睡得很死,没听见夜里有任何动静。 没人能叫醒内德·亨特,于是那两个女人和两个小马倌跑出去找驯马师和那匹马。 在离马厩500米的地方,他们看见斯特雷克的外套挂在一棵小树上。 就在树边的山脚下,他们找到了驯马师。他死了。 他腿上有一道长长的伤口,脑袋有三处破了。 他右手拿着一把小刀,上面满是血,左手拽着一条黑红相间的围巾。 伊迪丝·巴克斯特马上就认出了那条围巾,后来,内德·亨德也认出来了。 "是那个陌生人的围巾,"他告诉我们,"我去牵狗的时候,那个人还在马厩的窗户边。他放了什么东西在我的咖哩烧肉里,让我昏昏入睡--我知道一定是他。伊迪丝看见他了,他的手伸进了窗户里。" 内德·亨特关于他的咖哩烧肉的判断是对的。 他的晚餐还剩下一点儿,我们在里边发现大量的鸦片。 这就是内德睡得那么死的原因。 那匹马呢? 我们在泥地里发现了它的脚印,就在斯特雷克的尸体旁边。 但是随后发生了什么事? 有人打中了斯特雷克的头,杀死了他。 那个人把马带走了吗?还是马自己跑了? 达特穆尔的每个人都在找"银光",但没有关于它的任何消息。 星期二我开始调查这个案子,我们就着手寻找那个陌生人。 他在塔维斯托克,我们轻而易举地找到了他。 他名叫菲茨罗伊·辛普森。他大部分时间住在伦敦,靠在赛马中赌马赚钱。 我们查看了他的赌金簿,发现他在韦塞克斯杯上下了重注--5000英镑--买"银光"输。 以下是他回答我的问题的记录。 "你为什么去达特穆尔?" "巡官,我是个赌徒。我得了解参加韦塞克斯杯的马--'银光'、贝亚德,还有德斯伯勒——赛拉斯·布朗家的马。你知道,那是这次比赛的第二大热门。" "星期一晚上你是不是去了金斯皮兰的马厩?" "对。我只想向着马厩的马倌打听点儿事情。他们比任何人都了解马的状况。" "这是你的围巾吗?" "对......是我的。" "那它是怎么到被害人的手里的,辛普森先生?你能向我们解释一下吗?" "我不知道,巡官,我不知道!我从来没见过那个人,那天夜里我的围巾丢了。不是我干的,巡官,不是我!" 我们还问了很多问题,但菲茨罗伊·辛普森坚持他的说法。他那天晚上确实在金斯皮兰,他的外套淋了雨,还是湿的,他那条粗大的手杖足以打破人的脑袋。但他身上没有伤口,那斯特雷克手里那把刀上的血迹又是从哪儿来的呢? 还有,那匹马哪儿去了?

英文名著分集阅读 柯南·道尔《福尔摩斯与赛马》part1Sherlock Holmes and the Sport of Kings by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 单词提示 1.inspector 巡官,探长 2.racegoers 赛马观众 3.stable 马厩 原文 Chapter 1: A horse called Silver Blaze. "I must go down there, Watson, I must." said Sherlock Holmes at the breakfast table on Thursday morning. "Go, go where?" I asked. "To Dartmoor, to King's Pyland." "Ah, so that's it," I said, "Well,everybody in the country is talking about the case at King's Pyland." I always know when Holmes is interested in a case, he reads all the newspapers. He walks up and down, up and down the room and does not speak for hours. He did all those things yesterday. He did not answer any of my questions, but I knew that it was the mystery at King's Pyland. The morning, newspapers were on the breakfast table. "What is happening at King's Pyland? Where is Silver Blaze," they asked, "Who killed John Straker? What are the police doing? Can they find the horse before the big race next week?" Silver Blaze was a famous racehorse, and John Straker was his trainer. One of the biggest horse races of the year-the Wessex Cup was next week, and Silver Blaze was the favorite to win. But on Monday night at King's Pyland, two things happened. Someone killed John Straker and Silver Blaze disappeared. I was interested in this case, too. "Do you need my help, Holmes?" I asked. "I would very much like to come with you, my dear Watson," said Holmes, "Of course you must come with me.We can catch the twelve o'clock from Paddington and talk about the case on the train." Two hours later, we were on the train to Tavistock. We read all the midday newspapers, but there was nothing new in them. "So, Watson, what do you think about this case?" "Well, the newspapers say…" "Yes, the newspapers understand nothing. One day they say one thing, the next day they say another. But we must look at the case more carefully. What did happen on Monday night at King's Pyland and what did not happen, that's an important question, too." "Do the police have any answers?"I asked. "No," said Holmes. "On Wednesday morning, I had two letters. One was from Mr. Ross, the owner of the horse, and the other was from the Dartmoor police, an Inspector Gregory. They ask for my help." "Wednesday morning?"I cried, "But this is Thursday morning, why didn't you go down yesterday?" "Because it was an easy case, you can't hide a famous horse for long, I thought. where can you hide a horse on Dartmoor?There are no buildings, no trees. But I was wrong, Watson. The case is now two days old and nobody can find the horse or Straker's killer." "So here we are on the train to Tavistock, and what do you think about it all? " I said. "Well, Watson, let's look at the case first. We have a racehorse-Silver Blaze, only five years old, but already a winner in many big races. His owner Mr.Ross is a happy man and rich, the racegoers are happy too. Silver Blaze nearly always wins his races and so people put big bets on him to win. And when the favorite wins the race, a lot of people make money on their bets. But what happens when the favorite doesn't win? Watson, what then?" "A lot of people lose their money, of course," I said, "And people with big bets on a different horse can make much more money when that other horse wins. "Right, Watson! So perhaps some people are very interested in Silver Blaze not running in the Wessex Cup. Of course, Mr. Ross and his trainer John Straker know that, and they watch the horse very carefully. Now let's look at the people and the place. The trainer, John Straker, a good man and wonderful with horses, worked for Mr.Ross for twelve years. There are four horses in the training stables and three boys working for Straker. One of them sits up all night with the horses and the other two sleep in a room over the stables. We know nothing bad about any of the boys. Straker has a wife, no children, and lives-I mean lived in a house about 200 meters from the stables. The town of Tavistock is two kilometers to the west, and about two kilometers to the east. There is Capleton-another training stables. The owner there is Lord Backwater, and the trainer is Silas Brown. There are no other houses, just the hills of Dartmoor." I listened carefully, I wanted to remember it all, because Holmes does not like to say anything twice. "Now," he said, "What happened on Monday night? These papers came with Inspector Gregory's letter. The best thing is for you to read them, Watson, then tell me what you think." I took the papers from him and began to read. 翻译 第一章:一匹名叫银光的马。 "我必须得去一趟,华生。不能不去。"星期四早上,歇洛克·福尔摩斯坐在桌旁吃早餐时说道。 "去?去哪儿?"我问道。 "去达特穆尔--去金斯皮兰。" "啊!就是这事儿。"我说,"全英国的人都在谈论金斯皮兰的这个案子。" 当福尔摩斯对某个案子感兴趣的时候,我总能感觉到。 他会浏览所有的报纸,在房间里不停地走来走去,几小时都不说话。 昨天他就是这样。 我问什么他都不理,不过我知道他肯定是在想着金斯皮兰的神秘事件。 早上的报纸就放在餐桌上。 "金斯皮兰发生了什么事?'银光'在哪儿?"报上写道,"谁杀死了约翰·斯特雷克?警方在干什么?他们能不能在下星期大赛前找回'银光'?" "银光"是一匹著名的赛马,约翰·斯特雷克是它的驯马师。 每年最大的赛马会之一--韦塞克斯杯--就在下星期举行,"银光"是夺冠的大热门。 但星期一晚上,在金斯皮兰发生了两件事。 约翰·斯特雷克被杀了,而"银光"失踪了。 我对这案子也很感兴趣。 "你要我帮忙吗,福尔摩斯?"我问道,"我非常愿意跟你一起去。" "亲爱的华生,"福尔摩斯说,"你当然得跟我一起去。我们可以赶12点从帕丁顿区开出的火车,在车上讨论案情。" 两个小时以后,我们坐上了去塔维斯托克的火车。 我们看了中午所有的报纸,但报上没有什么新消息。 "华生,你对这案子有什么看法?" "呃,报纸上说..." "啊,报纸什么也不知道。他们今天说一套,明天又是一套。但我们得更用心地看待这个案子。星期一晚上在金斯皮兰发生了什么?没发生的又是什么?这也是个关键的问题。" "警方找到答案了吗?"我问道。 "没有,"福尔摩斯说,"星期三早上我收到两封信,一封是马的主人罗斯先生写来的,另一封来自达特穆尔警方--格雷戈里巡官。他们请求我帮忙。" "星期三早上!"我叫道,"但现在已经是星期四上午了。你为什么不昨天动身呢?" "因为这个案子并不复杂。我原来以为没人能长时间地藏住一匹知名的马。你能把马藏在达特穆尔的什么地方呢?那儿没有建筑物,也没有树林......但我的判断并不准确,华生。现在这案子已经发生两天了,还没人找到那匹马--或者找到杀死约翰·斯特雷克的凶手。所以我们才坐上了这列开往塔维斯托克的火车。" "那你对这一切有什么看法?"我问道。 "嗯,华生,我们来看看这个案子。首先,有一匹赛马'银光'--才5岁,但已经是许多大赛的冠军。它的主人罗斯先生很开心--因为他有钱了。在这匹马上下注的赛马迷们也很开心,因为银光在比赛中几乎从未输过,因此人们在它身上下了重注。如果最被看好的赛马赢得了比赛,很多人都会凭他们下的赌注赢钱。但如果这匹马输了呢,华生?那会怎样?" "当然是许多人输钱啦,"我说,"而且在别的马身上下了重注的人会赢得更多的钱,如果被下注的那匹马赢了的话。" "说得对,华生!所以,可能有人很希望'银光'不能参加韦塞克斯杯的比赛。当然,罗斯先生和他的驯马师约翰·斯特雷克知道这一点,他们非常小心地照顾着这匹马。 现在让我们来看看这案子涉及到的人和地点。驯马师约翰·斯特雷克--他是个好人,对马很有一套--已经为罗斯先生工作了12年了。训练用的马厩里有四匹马。斯特雷克手下有三个小马倌,其中一个会整夜守着马,另外两个睡在马厩顶上的一个房间里。就我们所知,这几个男孩儿的品行都很好。 斯特雷克已经结婚,没有孩子,住在--我是说,他曾经住在离马厩200米左右的一所房子里。向西两公里就是塔维斯托克镇,东边大约两公里的地方是卡普莱顿,另一处训马马厩。那儿的主人是巴克沃特勋爵,驯马师是赛拉斯·布朗。附近没有其他的房子了--只有达特穆尔的山。" 我仔细听着,想记住这一切,因为福尔摩斯不喜欢重复说过的话。 "那么,"他说道,"星期一晚上发生了什么事?这些卷宗是格雷戈里巡官随信一起寄来的。你最好看看,华生,然后告诉我你的想法。" 我从他手里拿过卷宗,看了起来。

Text 10 M:Hello, everyone. Today I’m going to talk about small talk, that is, short conversations people often have with strangers they meet. Such exchanges occur at bus stops,on buses, while waiting in line, almost anywhere that strangers gather close together. As a matter of fact, these short conversations are a good way for people to say hello and express friendliness. Such conversations usually cover a wide range of topics. The topics may include weather, customer service,movies, TV shows, local sports or latest news. But you should always keep it in your mind that private questions about salaries, family life, religious beliefs and politics should be avoided during these conversations. Besides, it's better to ask open-ended questions. If you ask visitors, “Do you like our city?” They may say simply “Yes.” On the other hand, if you ask, “What do you think of our city?” They will have more freedom in answering. This type of question also shows that you're interested in them. If you appear interested in what people are saying, they feel more comfortable talking with you.
英文名著分集阅读 柯南·道尔《福尔摩斯和公爵的儿子》part7Sherlock Holmes and the Duke's Son by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 单词提示 1.cloven 分趾的 原文 Chapter 7: The Duke's Son When the duke said this, I was very surprised,but Holmes was surprised too. "This is news to me," he said, "can you tell me more? " The duke stood up and walked round the room for a minute. "I must tell you everything," he said, "I didn't want to talk about it, but I must. I see that now." He sat down again and began his story. "When I was a young man, Mr. Holmes, I was in love, no so much in love. It only happens to you once, and this woman was the love of my life. I wanted her to be my wife, but she died. She left me this one child, and I loved him because of her. When I look in his face, I see her and remember her and can't stop loving her. I must have the boy near me because of this, but a government minister cannot tell the world about a love child like this. So, to the world, James is my young secretary, not my son. He knows that I am his father. He hates the duchess,because she is not his mother, and he hates my younger son, Arthur, because Arthur has everything. Arthur has a name, a famous father, houses, money, everything. James has nothing. Well, he has some money, of course, but he is just Mr. James Wilder and he wants to be the Duke of Holderness one day. That's not possible, of course, but James can't understand that. And so you see, I was afraid for Arthur, and that's why I sent him to Dr Huxtable's school. And what does James do next? He kidnaps my poor Arthur, it changes nothing, but James can't see that, he wants me to say. 'Yes, James,now you can be my first son, you can have everything, Arthur can be the number two son.' But I can't do that. Of course I can't. James knew this man, Hayes. You see,because Hayes worked for me once, James asked for Hayes's help and the man was happy to do it. You remember my letter to Arthur on that last day? Well, James opened the letter and put in a note from him. That evening,he cycled across the moor and met Arthur in Ragged Shore. He talked about the duchess——Arthur's mother. 'She wants to see you,' he told Arthur,'she's waiting on the moor. Come back at midnight, and a man with a horse can take you to her.' Of course,poor Arthur wanted to see his mother, so he came. Hayes was there with two horses, and they rode across the moor, but the German teacher followed them, and Hayes killed him. Hayes then took Arthur to the Green Man. Well, Mr.Holmes, I knew nothing about any of this until the murder. James is a bad boy, but he does not murder people. When he heard the news, he came to me at once crying, 'what could I do?' I didn't want the world to know about this, so James went down to the Green Man. He told Hayes to run away, because everybody knew about the murder now and knew the murderer's name, too. Hayes left at once. Later, I went down and saw Arthur. I left him there with Mrs. Hayes, because I couldn't say anything to the police just then. So Mr. Holmes,now you know everything." "Hmm,"said Holmes, "you help a murderer, you say nothing to the police, you leave your young son in a dirty inn, and you ask for my help." People never spoke to the Duke of Holderness like this usually. His face was red, but he said nothing. "First,"said Holmes, "we must bring Arthur home." "Yes,"the duke said quietly. Holmes quickly wrote a note and took it out of the room. A minute later,he was back. "Now what are you going to do about Mr. James Wilder?" He said. "I understand you, Mr. Holmes," said the duke, "James is leaving me and going to Australia next week." "Good,"said Holmes, "and the duchess, perhaps without James in the house, you and she…" "Yes, I wrote to the duchess this morning." Holmes stood up. "Well," he said, "Watson and I can go home now. I think there is just one other small thing. This man,Hayes, took two horses across the moor, but the horse's feet made the tracks of a cow in the mud. How was this possible?" The duke looked surprised and thought for a minute. Then he went away and came back two minutes later with a glass box in his hands. In the box were some horseshoes. "We found these shoes under the ground in the garden," the duke said, "they are about 500 years old. We think the Holderness family has a long and interesting past." Holmes opened the box and took out one shoe. It was a shoe for a horse's foot, but it looked like a cloven cow's foot. Holmes wet his finger and ran it round the bottom of the shoe. A little mud came off on his finger. "Thank you," said Holmes. He put the horse shoe back in its box. "That shoe is the second most interesting thing in the north of England," he said, "and the first asked the duke." Holmes took the check for 12000 pounds from the table and slowly put it into his notebook. "I am a poor man," he said. He looked lovingly at the notebook, then put it carefully in his pocket. 翻译 第七章:公爵的儿子 当公爵说出这句话时,我非常惊讶,但福尔摩斯也很惊讶。 “这对我来说是新闻,”他说,“你能告诉我更多吗?” 公爵站了起来,在房间里踱步了一会儿。 “我必须告诉你一切,”他说,“我本不想谈论这件事,但我必须这么做。我现在明白了。” 他又坐了下来,开始讲述他的故事。 “当我年轻时,福尔摩斯先生,我曾恋爱过,不,是非常爱。这种事一生只发生一次,而这个女人是我一生的挚爱。 我想让她做我的妻子,但她去世了。她给我留下了这个孩子,因为她的缘故我爱他。 当我看着他的脸,我就看到了她,想起了她,无法停止爱她。 因为这个原因,我必须让这孩子待在我身边,但一位政府大臣不能向世人公开这样一个私生子。 所以,对世人来说,詹姆斯是我的年轻秘书,而不是我的儿子。 他知道我是他的父亲。 他憎恨公爵夫人,因为她不是他的母亲,他也憎恨我的小儿子亚瑟,因为亚瑟拥有一切。 亚瑟有名分,有著名的父亲,有宅邸,有钱,有一切。 詹姆斯一无所有。 好吧,他当然有一些钱,但他只是詹姆斯·怀尔德先生,他想有一天成为霍尔德内斯公爵。 那当然是不可能的,但詹姆斯无法理解这一点。 所以你明白,我为亚瑟感到担心,那就是为什么我把他送到了赫克斯特博士的学校。 接下来詹姆斯做了什么? 他绑架了我可怜的亚瑟,但这改变不了什么,但詹姆斯看不透这一点,他希望我说。 ‘是的,詹姆斯,现在你可以做我的长子了,你可以拥有一切,亚瑟可以做次子。’ 但我不能那样做。当然我不能。 詹姆斯认识这个人,海耶斯。 你看,因为海耶斯曾经为我工作过,詹姆斯请求海耶斯的帮助,那个人也很乐意去做。 你还记得最后一天我给亚瑟的信吗? 好吧,詹姆斯拆开了信并放进了他写的一张便条。 那天晚上,他骑自行车穿过荒原并在拉格德肖尔见到了亚瑟。 他谈到了公爵夫人——亚瑟的母亲。 ‘她想见你,’他告诉亚瑟,‘她在荒原上等着。午夜回来,会有一个骑马的人带你去见她。’ 当然,可怜的亚瑟想见他的母亲,所以他来了。 海耶斯带着两匹马在那里,他们骑马穿过荒原,但是那个德语老师跟踪了他们,海耶斯杀了他。 然后海耶斯把亚瑟带到了绿人旅馆。 好吧,福尔摩斯先生,直到谋杀案发生前,我对这一切都一无所知。 詹姆斯是个坏孩子,但他不会杀人。 当他听到这个消息时,他立刻哭着来找我,‘我能怎么办?’ 我不想让世人知道这件事,所以詹姆斯去了绿人旅馆。 他告诉海耶斯逃跑,因为现在大家都知道了谋杀案,也知道了凶手的名字。 海耶斯立刻就走了。 后来,我下去看了亚瑟。 我把他和海耶斯太太留在那里,因为那时我还不能跟警察说什么。 所以福尔摩斯先生,现在你知道了一切。” “嗯,”福尔摩斯说,“你包庇了一个凶手,你对警察只字不提,把你年幼的儿子留在一个肮脏的旅馆里,然后你还要寻求我的帮助。” 人们通常从不这样对霍尔德内斯公爵说话。 他的脸涨红了,但他什么也没说。 “首先,”福尔摩斯说,“我们必须把亚瑟带回家。” “好的,”公爵轻声说。 福尔摩斯迅速写了一张便条并把它带出了房间。 一分钟后,他回来了。 “现在你打算怎么处理詹姆斯·怀尔德先生?”他说。 “我明白你的意思,福尔摩斯先生,”公爵说,“詹姆斯要离开我,下周去澳大利亚。” “很好,”福尔摩斯说,“至于公爵夫人,也许家里没有了詹姆斯,你和……” “是的,我今天早上给公爵夫人写了信。” 福尔摩斯站了起来。“好吧,”他说,“华生和我现在可以回家了。我想还有一件小事。这个人海耶斯,带着两匹马穿过荒原,但是马脚在泥地里留下了牛蹄印。这怎么可能呢?” 公爵看起来很惊讶,想了一分钟。 然后他走开,两分钟后拿着一个玻璃盒子回来了。 盒子里是一些马蹄铁。 “我们在花园的地下发现了这些蹄铁,”公爵说,“它们大约有500年的历史了。我们认为霍尔德内斯家族有着漫长而有趣的过去。” 福尔摩斯打开盒子,拿出一个蹄铁。 那是一个用于马脚的蹄铁,但看起来像分瓣的牛蹄。 福尔摩斯弄湿了他的手指,沿着蹄铁的底部抹了一圈。 一点泥土沾在了他的手指上。 “谢谢你,”福尔摩斯说。 他把马蹄铁放回盒子里。 “那个蹄铁是英格兰北部第二有趣的东西,”他说,“而第一是公爵。” 福尔摩斯从桌子上拿起那张12000英镑的支票,慢慢地把它放进他的笔记本里。 “我是一个穷人,”他说。 他深情地看着笔记本,然后小心翼翼地把它放进口袋里。
