阅读理解。     "Mister D"Arcy is not a policeman. He is, however, very wise. He knew the police would search his
apartment. He also knew how police think. So, he did not hide the letter where he knew they would look
for it.
      "Do you remember how Germont laughed when I said the mystery was difficult for him to solve because
it was so simple?"
     Dupin filled his pipe with tobacco and lit it."Well, the more I thought about it, the more I realized the police
could not find the letter because D"Arcy had not hidden it at all.
     "So I went to visit D"Arcy in his apartment. I took a pair of dark green eyeglasses with me. I explained to
him that I was having trouble with my eyes and needed to wear the dark glasses at all times. He believed me.
The glasses permitted me to look around the apartment while I seemed only to be talking to him.
     "I paid special attention to a large desk where there were a lot of papers and books. However, I saw
nothing suspicious there. After a few minutes, however, I noticed a small shelf over the fireplace. A few
postcards and a letter were lying on the shelf. The letter looked very old and dirty.
      "As soon as I saw this letter, I decided it must be the one I was looking for. It must be, even though it
was completely different from the one Germont had described.
     "This letter had a large green stamp on it. The address was written in small letters in blue ink. I memorized
every detail of the letter while I talked to D"Arcy. Then when he was not looking, I dropped one of my gloves
on the floor under my chair.
     "The next morning, I stopped at his apartment to look for my glove. While we were talking, we heard
people shouting in the street. D"Arcy went to the window and looked out. Quickly, I stepped to the shelf and
put the letter in my pocket. Then I replaced it with a letter that looked exactly like it, which I had made it the
night before.
     "The trouble in the street was caused by a man who had almost been run over by a horse and carriage. He
was not hurt. And soon the crowd of people went away. When it was over, D"Arcy came away from the
window. I said goodbye and left.
     "The man who almost had an accident was one of my servants(雇员). I had paid him to create the
incident."
     Dupin stopped talking to light his pipe. I did not understand."But, Dupin," I said,"why did you go to the
trouble of replacing the letter? Why not just take it and leave?"
     Dupin smiled."D"Arcy is a dangerous man," he said."And he has many loyal servants. If I had taken the
letter, I might never have left his apartment alive." 1. What is Dupin probably?A. An actor.
B. A professor.
C. An official.
D. A detective. 2. Which of he following about Dupin"s dropping one of his gloves is NOT true?A. He dropped it intentionally.
B. He dropped it carelessly.
C. He dropped it in order to drop in on D"Arcy again.
D. He dropped it to make an excuse.3. According to the text, we can infer _______. A. the letter Dupin took away was exactly the one he wanted.
B. the incident in the street was directed by Dupin.
C. Mr. D"Arcy and Dupin were good friends.
D. Dupin should have taken the letter away directly. 4. Which would be the best title for the text? A. The stolen letter
B. An unexpected accident
C. A dangerous man
