五、阅读理解 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。
William Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was an English short-story writer. Most of his stories were seen in magazines. He was good at making just enough suspense (悬念) to keep the readers interested in the following part in the next week's magazine. Make no mistake — The Moonstone is not a “short” story. Nearly three times as long as a detective novel, it will take some time to get to the bottom of it.
But that does not make it boring. In fact, it just adds to its complicated plots. Told through 11 different voices, Wilkie Collins' novel is a classic mystery that will leave you guessing and guessing again until the final pages. Written in 1868, it is thought to be the first full-length detective novel. Each person tells his or her side of the story, using only what they know. That means the reader is always filling in the gaps as the story goes on, wanting to know what happens next.
The story is about a large, yellow diamond called the moonstone. The stone is very sacred in India. It was first stolen from India in 1799. It finds its way to a young English girl named Rachel about 50 years later. But on the night of her 18th birthday, it is stolen again!
From there the reader is taken on a crazy journey, through the eyes of all the different characters and suspects. That means suspects change from character to character. For example, first you think the waitress is the thief, but she is soon found dead and a new character is suspected of stealing the diamond. The story also touches on the history between India and England. While the English are wondering who stole “their” diamond, the Indians are angry because the English stole it from them first. So, who stole the diamond? Why not read it and find out!
