The world’s greatest detective, Sherlock Holmes, is back on our screens.
The new BBC TV series of Sherlock was broadcast in the UK on Jan 1. But the history of Sherlock dates back 127 years.
Since the creation of Holmes in 1887, he has been taking us on adventures (冒險) one after another.
The Sherlock series is a playful drama, covered in crimes and mystery. It gives us a modern Sherlock for a new generation, who solves cases with the help of the Internet, cell phones and GPS.
People look to Sherlock for both adventure and inspiration (靈感). Each case sends us on a mysterious journey with Holmes. The stories give life and color to our imagination: as he checks the crime scene, we join him and become detectives too, looking out for hidden clues.
Yet Holmes is no Superman. He cannot fly, or turn invisible (隱形的). But his powers are within all of us: reason, logical thinking and paying attention to detail. While an artist’s painting is his art, Sherlock’s art is his intelligence (聰明才智). He is human, and this is what makes Holmes a true hero for all of us.

A recent research shows that physical activity(體育活動) may help students do better in their classes. The research comes because educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like P.E. class.
Researchers go over the results of fourteen studies. Twelve were from the United States, one from Canada and one from South Africa. The studies appeared between 2009 and 2013. They included more than 55,000 children, aged six to eighteen.
Thomas Singh, one of the researchers, says the studies showed a relationship between physical activity and scores on subjects such as math, English and reading. Ms. Singh offers some possible explanations (解釋):
“ There are, first, physiological (生理的) explanations, like more blood flow, and so more oxygen (氧氣) to the brain. Being physically active means there are more hormones（ 荷爾蒙） produced like endorphins ( 腦內啡). And endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you will perform better in class. Also, students who take part in organized sports learn rules and how to follow them. This could improve their classroom behavior and help them know what they should do.
All in all, the finding tells us that physically active kids are more likely to do better in school. Ms. Singh says schools should consider the finding before they cut physical education programs. 
小題1:What led the researchers to do the studies?
A．Schools’cutting physical activity.
B．Their interest in physical activity.
C．The tests including about 55,000 children.
D．Kids’unsatisfying schooling performance.
小題2:How many countries took part in the studies?
A．14. B．12C．2. D．3.
小題3:Which of the following is NOT one of the advantages of physical activity according to the passage?
A．Getting more blood flow.
B．Better classroom behavior.
C．Feeling relaxed and refreshed.
