I had walked along the sea for about an hour until I began to feel hungry. It was seven. At that time I was not far from a favourite restaurant of mine, where I often went to eat two or three times a week. I knew the owner well.
I went into the restaurant, which was already crowded, and ordered my meal. While I was waiting, I looked 1 to see if I knew anyone in the restaurant. Then I saw a man sitting at a corner table near the door keeping looking in my direction, as if he knew me. I certainly didn’t know him, for I never forgot a 2 . The man had a newspaper open in front of him. But I could see that he was keeping an 3 on me. When the waiter brought my soup, the man was 4 puzzled (迷惑) by the familiar(熟悉) way that the waiter and I called each other. He became even puzzled as time went on.

When I had finished, I called the owner of the restaurant and asked him 7 the man had wanted. The owner told me he was a detective. “Really?” I was surprised. “He was certainly 8 in me. But why?” I asked. “He followed you because he thought you were a man he was looking 9 ,” the owner said. “When he came into the kitchen, he showed me a photo of the man. He certainly looked like you! Of course, since we 10 you, I told him that he had made a mistake.” It was lucky I came to a restaurant where I was known, or I might have been arrested!

五、阅读理解
That morning, we noticed a cab (出租车) following Sir Henry and Dr. Mortimer in London. But who?
We went to Sir Henry's hotel. Holmes asked Dr. Mortimer if anyone with a black beard (胡须) lived in or near Baskerville Hall.
“Yes," said Dr. Mortimer, “Barrymore."
“We must send a telegram (电报) to check whether Barrymore is in London or at Baskerville Hall," said Holmes.
Sir Henry said he wanted to go to Baskerville Hall.
“OK”, said Holmes. “But you mustn't go alone. Watson can go with you."
Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10:30 train on Saturday.
Holmes thought deeply on the way home: the story of the Hound, Sir Charles's death, the strange letter, the missing boot and the black-bearded man. He sat in his room all afternoon, smoking and thinking.
Just before dinner, a telegram arrived. It said, “Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall."
“That becomes a dead end, Watson. We will have to look for another way to go forward.
Just then the door bell rang. It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard. “I got a message that you are asking for me", he said. “I've never had a complaint. I came here to ask you what you had against me! ”
“No, no,” said Holmes.“Instead, I'll give you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning. He watched this house at 10:00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen."
The driver looked surprised and then answered, “The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn't tell anyone about him."
“It's serious, my friend, and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer.”
“His name,” said the driver, “was Sherlock Holmes."
I'd never seen Holmes more surprised. Then he laughed. “He scored against me that time, Watson."
The driver told us everything he knew. Holmes gave him the money and sent him away. “This is a dangerous enemy, Watson.”
