SherlockSherlock HolmesHolmes andand WatsonWatson英语读书笔记英语读书笔记 Thoughts given by Sherlock Holmes and the Duke s Son Written in the first chapter of the book Pride and Prejudice is an extraordinary sentence of which even a person who has had only a brief look upon the book will not fail to receive a deep impression It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife In terms of Sherlock Holmes we d better alter the sentence into It is a fact universally aepted by readers throughout the world that an excellent book in possession of our famous detective Sherlock Holmes is undoubtedly a masterpiece of all times Perhaps this is one of the most obvious explanations for the unrivaled popularity of Holmes series in the field of detective stories Overwhelmed by the remendations provided by my friends I decided to take a look on this Sherlock Holmes and the Duke s Son originally published by Oxford University Press As a whole this book is about a case concerning the Duke s missing son Arthur the Duke s son was found out in a certain morning to have disappeared aompanied with which was also the disappearance of the German teacher The school master Dr Huxtable then turned to the famous detective of the time Sherlock Holmes for help Realizing how tough and important the case is Holmes immediately made up his mind to aept the case and followed Dr Huxtable back to Mackleton by train Having formed a rough idea about the whole matter Holmes probed into the case immediately and had a careful investigation of the entire area shortly after the arrival during the process of which he discovered the body of the German teacher Heidegger Finally primarily due to his prominent ability as a detective he managed to unravel the mystery and obtained the twelve thousand pounds promised by the Duke Having once started reading this fiction I was pletely immersed in the mysterious story presented by the book As the saying goes Well begun half done At the beginning of the story just like many other detective stories the author gives us a brief description of the condition by the words of a client However unlike other ones this story first delineates the client s strange behavior at length to indicate the severity of the incident in order to attract the readers to continue reading it As is known to all vivid depiction is essential to detective stories since it can help the readers understand each figure s characteristics and visualize the scenes thus making the story more authentic and attractive Therefore trying to present a real world to his readership Sir Arthur Conan Doyle author of the original Holmes series has skillfully arranged the plots of the whole story from the perspective of Dr Watson a character not so specialized in discovering the truth hidden behind the enigmatic happenings as Holmes but so loyal to Sherlock Homes as a friend that he always aompanies Holmes wherever he goes In this way he elaborately depicted every scene and character in the book Apart from the special start the ending of the whole story being dramatic but reasonable is certainly an outstanding one After all except the author himself who knows that the Duke s seemingly ordinary secretary is in fact the Duke s bastard In addition who knows that the Duke actually has already been acquainted with the whole thing before Holmes solves this plicated problem Yet surprising as it is this ending seems so natural that it fits all the plots of the story perfectly well While enjoying this wonderful story I could do nothing but admire the wonderful design of this masterpiece as well as the author s gorgeous writing skill Closing my eyes I can even see the story happening just like watching a film Not until then did I understand why the Japanese cartoon film Detective Conan used this Conan as the name of its hero As far as I am concerned nothing is more admirable and surprising in the hero Sherlock Homes than his profound knowledge which has certainly assisted him a lot when he was studying the case Take the bicycle tyres for instance Holmes actually is capable of recognizing 42 different varieties of bicycle tyres What s more aording to his other stories Holmes has studied different kinds of newspapers cigarettes people s footprints and other special things as well Therefore he seems to have the mastery of anything relevant to the cases he deals with Except for his illimitable knowledge Holmes also specializes in arranging the facts in order and then finding the fact leading him to a GREat discovery or even the truth itself From his speakin
