Holmes said, "Somebody sent a letter with five pips (果核) in it from India, and arrived seven weeks later to kill John's uncle. Then they sent five pips from Scotland and arrived three days later to kill John's father. Now they have sent five pips to John from London!" "The letters are all from seaports (海港). The writer was on a ship when he wrote the letters," I replied.
"Very good, Watson! And John's enemy is in London already!"
"Well, I hope they won't kill young John," I said.
But they did. The next morning, we read in the newspaper that a policeman found him dead near Waterloo Station. Holmes was very angry about it.
"He came to me for help and those men murdered him! I'm going to find them, if it's the last thing I do!" he said to me, and he hurried out of the house.
At night, when he came back, he was tired, but pleased. He said, "I know the names of John's enemies! And now I'm going to send them a surprise! This will frighten (使惊恐) them!" He took five pips from an orange and put them in an envelope (信封). On it he wrote, "S. H. for J. C."
"I'm sending the pips to Captain (船长) James Calhoun. His ship is called the Star. He and his men are sailing back to Georgia, the USA."
"How did you find him, Holmes?" I asked.
"Ships' papers," he said. "I've looked at hundreds of them today. Only one ship, the Star, was in the three ports at the right times, and this morning the Star left London to sail back to Georgia. I found out that the captain and two of his men, all Americans, weren't on the ship last night, so I'm sure they killed John. When they arrive in America, they'll get the pips and then the police will catch them!"

答案
【解析】：本题为英语阅读理解题，主要考查学生对英文文本的理解能力以及细节捕捉能力。题目给出了一个关于福尔摩斯侦探故事的小段文本，并基于这个文本提出了四个问题。学生需要通过阅读文本，理解文本内容，然后根据文本信息来回答每个问题。
1. 对于第一个问题，学生需要仔细阅读文本，捕捉到关于信件发送地点、Waterloo Station的位置、John的死因以及福尔摩斯对凶手位置的判断等关键信息，然后与选项进行比对，找出正确答案。
2. 对于第二个问题，学生需要理解文本中的"S. H. for J. C."这一线索，并结合后文福尔摩斯的话，推断出"J. C."代表的人名。
3. 对于第三个问题，学生需要从文本中找到关于凶手数量的线索，特别是福尔摩斯发现凶手身份后的描述，从而确定凶手的数量。
4. 对于第四个问题，学生需要理解文本的整体内容和风格，然后判断这个故事最可能来源于哪种类型的书籍或文章。
【答案】：
1. B。根据文本描述，信件是从不同的海港发出的，所以A选项错误；John并没有吃下果核，所以C选项错误；福尔摩斯已经判断出凶手在伦敦，所以D选项错误。而文本中明确提到“the next morning, we read in the newspaper that a policeman found him dead near Waterloo Station”，说明Waterloo Station在伦敦，所以B选项正确。
2. A。根据文本中的描述，“I'm sending the pips to Captain (船长) James Calhoun. His ship is called the Star.”以及“On it he wrote, 'S. H. for J. C.'”可以推断出，“J. C.”代表的是James Calhoun，所以答案是A。
3. D。根据文本中的描述，“I found out that the captain and two of his men, all Americans, weren't on the ship last night, so I'm sure they killed John.”可以推断出，凶手有三个：船长和他的两个手下，所以答案是D。
4. A。整个文本描述的是一个侦探故事，福尔摩斯通过线索追踪凶手，这种情节和风格最符合侦探小说的特点，所以答案是A。

五、阅读理解。
福尔摩斯说：“有人从印度寄了一封装着五颗果核的信，七周后寄信人来杀害了约翰的叔叔。然后他们从苏格兰寄了五颗果核，三天后寄信人来杀害了约翰的父亲。现在他们从伦敦给约翰寄了五颗果核！”“这些信都来自海港。写信的人写信的时候正在船上。”我回答道。
“非常好，华生！而且约翰的敌人已经在伦敦了！”
“嗯，我希望他们不会杀害年轻的约翰。”我说。
但他们还是这么做了。第二天早上，我们在报纸上看到，一名警察发现他死在滑铁卢车站附近。福尔摩斯对此非常生气。
“他来向我求助，而那些人谋杀了他！我要找到他们，就算这是我做的最后一件事！”他对我说，然后匆匆走出了房子。
晚上，当他回来的时候，他很疲惫，但却很高兴。他说：“我知道约翰的敌人的名字了！现在我要给他们一个惊喜！这会吓住他们的！”他从一个橘子上取下五颗果核，把它们放进一个信封里。在信封上他写道：“S. H. 致J. C.”
“我要把这些果核寄给詹姆斯·卡尔霍恩船长。他的船叫‘星星号’。他和他的手下正航行回美国的佐治亚州。”
“你是怎么找到他的，福尔摩斯？”我问道。
“通过船舶文件。”他说，“我今天看了几百份文件。只有一艘船，‘星星号’，在合适的时间出现在了这三个港口，而且今天早上‘星星号’离开伦敦，航行回佐治亚州。我发现船长和他的两名手下，都是美国人，昨晚不在船上，所以我确定是他们杀害了约翰。当他们到达美国时，他们会收到这些果核，然后警察就会抓住他们！”
