My first mistake was that I had left the garage door open. It couldn't be closed for months. I had no chance to repair it as I had an extremely high workload(工作负担). As I often travel for work, I am r1. home long enough to allow repairmen to come and work.

After travelling all week, I was tired and happy to be home. I didn't think anything of the door which led from the garage to the house being open. As soon as I entered the kitchen, I knew something was w2. Smashed ceramics(粉碎的陶瓷) were lying across the floor and my set of Japanese kitchen knives were gone. As I looked over the messy place, I found the upstairs bathroom door close. I knew I couldn’t hesitate. I r3. back to the garage and grabbed the nearest heavy object, a hammer.

As I crept back into the kitchen, I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I raised the hammer above my head. As soon as the robber, who was wearing a motorcycle helmet(头盔), stepped down from the last step, I didn't give him the chance to a4. me. I swung the hammer as hard as I could into his helmet. He fell to the ground yelping aloud and dropping the sports bag which he had been filling with the valuable from my house. After a moment, he jumped up and ran past me towards the garage door. After he had left, I was still very shaken with f5. as someone had broken into my house. After passing through the rooms of the house three times, I felt s6. that nobody else was there. At that point I laid the hammer down in the kitchen and called the police.

When the police heard I had stayed at the house and struck the robber with a hammer, they told me that I shouldn’t play a role as a h7. if I thought someone had broken into my house. Instead, I should exit the house and call the police from a safe place.

Agatha Christie was one of the greatest British crime writers. She introduced the public to her literary character, the famous Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot in her crime novel in 1920. In total she wrote 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections, a billion copies of which have been sold in English. Her books have been translated into many different languages ,including Chinese.

Each story she wrote involved a mystery that had to be solved, but perhaps the greatest mystery is where she went for those 11 days. At the time of the disappearance in 1926, she was 36 years old and married to Archibald Christie. Her mother had died in the beginning of that year and her husband had left her alone to deal with her mother’s death. So she was very lonely and it seemed as if she might not be coping well emotionally.

In the middle of that year, her latest book was published and the book reviews loved it! Unluckily, soon after her book was published, her husband told her he was having an affair with a young woman and was going away for the weekend to be with her. On Friday, the 3rd of December 1926, Agatha Christie kissed her daughter who was asleep upstairs and drove away from the house. Her car was later found abandoned(被遗弃的) on an empty road near a lake and so people began the search for the talented writer. It was 11days later before someone recognized Agatha at a spa hotel in Harrogate. She had been living there using another name all that time. On her return, she never said much about what had happened.

Over the years, many people guessed why she disappeared. Some people said that she was upset with her husband and lost her memory as he was having an affair. A few people even thought that it was a publicity(宣传) trick to make sure that her newly-published book would sell well.

To this day no one knows for sure what happened and why. While books and even a movie have been made about the mysterious 11 days, it would seem that even the great detective Hercule Poirot would not be able to solve this mystery!

1.Who was Hercule Poirot?

___________________________________________________________

2.What factor do we know that Agatha’s books have been known to the world?

___________________________________________________________

3.Why did Agatha feel lonely in the beginning of 1926?

__________________________________________________________

4.What was the date when Agatha drove away from her home?

__________________________________________________________

5.People didn’t recognize Agatha when she had been at a spa hotel for 11days , did they?

__________________________________________________________

6.Do you think Agatha’s missing was a publicity trick? Give your reason(s)!
