必威体育精装版数字版《初中英语阅读》九上译文和答案 PAGE PAGE 1 9上Chapter8 诵读1 Chinese Sherlock Holmes 中国版福尔摩斯 Sherlock Holmes may be the worlds most famous fictional detective.But in China someone is able to compete with him in popularity. His name is Di Renjie. Unlike Holmes, who is a fictional character,Di Renjie (630 -700) wast real person in history. He served twice as prime minister in the Tang Dynasty(618-907) under Empress Wu Zetian.He once judged numerous cases involving about 17,000 people in a year and received no complaint. Maybe thats why Di has been described as a smart detective and has long been popular in print and on screen. He even became internationally famous when Dutch diplomat Robert van Gulik(1910-1967) wrote and published a series of detective novels based on him in the 1950s. He is called Judge Dee in Guliks books and is described as a strong man with a well-trimmed beard. He is a kung fu master and his assistants are all former criminals who help him solve cases. Dee often travels alone in clever disguises. Sometimes he makes mistakes and takes a while to solve a case. He believes in the power of deductive reasoning.He doesnt torture criminals to get confessions, Instead, he tricks them into confessing themselves. Judge Dee is a likeable hero with a human touch.His style is more like a Western detective. It is no wonder why he is called the Chinese Sherlock Holmes in the West. 福尔摩斯可能是世界上最著名的虚构侦探。但是在中国有人可以和他在人气上一较高下。他叫狄仁杰。 与小说中的福尔摩斯不同，狄仁杰（630 - 700）在历史上是个真实的人物。他在唐朝（618年- 907年）武则天手下做过两次宰相。他曾在一年内审结多起案件，涉及约1.7万人，没有收到任何投诉。 也许这就是为什么狄仁杰一直被描述为一个聪明的侦探，在印刷品和银幕上一直很受欢迎的原因。甚至荷兰外交官罗伯特·范·古里克（1910 - 1967）在上世纪50年代以他为原型创作并出版了一系列侦探小说，他因此而闻名于世。 在古里克的书中，他被称为狄法官，被描述为一个留着修剪整齐的胡须的强壮男人。他是一个功夫高手，他的助手都是以前的罪犯，帮他破案。 狄经常乔装打扮独自旅行。有时候他会犯错，花点时间破案。他相信演绎推理的力量。他并不通过严刑逼供，而是诱骗罪犯自首。 狄仁杰是一个有人情味的讨人喜欢的英雄。他的风格更像是西方的侦探。难怪他在西方被称为“中国福尔摩斯”。 诵读2 Queen of Crime 犯罪女王 Agatha Christie was known as the Queen of Crimeor the Duchess of Death.
