Helga was born above the shop in 1922.The bookstore was truly a(n)A:Helga's mother Elsa worked with her husband and then Helga was old enough to help out behind the counter(). Helga took over the shop in 1965.She only sold books she wanted people to read.No title made it onto her shelves until she had read it.That was why fans of detective()novels would find few choices in Buchhandlung H.Weyhe:Helga was not a fan. Helga's favourite book was Stoffel Flies Over the Sea,a 1932 children's title.It tells of a boy named Stoffel who travels in an airship to visit his uncle in Manhattan in New York City.Helga's love for the book was partly because she had an uncle living in Manhattan too. Even when she reached her nineties,she showed no sign of slowing down.Although the shop has gone through some of history's darkest times,little has changed in the shop since the days of her father and even her grandfather. The old lady died at the age of 98.With her death,Germany lost its oldest bookseller and Salzwedel lost one of its best-loved residents(居民. ()1.Who was the third owner of the bookstore?

His head was exactly the shape of an egg..." With this description,Agatha Christie(阿加莎·克里斯蒂)introduced Hercule Poirot(赫尔克里·波洛) in her novel,.The Mysterious Affair at Styles(《斯泰尔斯庄园奇案》).Since then,the name Poirot has become familiar around the world.Back then,however,the retired Belgian()policeman had just escaped from his war-torn homeland.After settling down in a sleepy English village,he was involved in the murder of a wealthy elderly lady. Many cases Poirot took on were hard to solve.But as he often said,"The simplest explanation is always the most likely.It just takes the little grey cells,a close eye for details and a bit of self-confidence."As Poirot found throughout his career,the most ordinary clues could prove to be the most important. Murder seemed to follow Poirot wherever he went,from rural England to the Nile River().The detective did make mistakes.Poirot could be annoying sometimes-he was too proud of himself and believed he was smarter than others.However,he was one of the best-loved characters in fiction.People liked him for his powerful understanding of human nature.The Belgian helped make Christie one of the world's best-selling novelists. But after writing 33 novels and more than 50 short stories starring Poirot,Christie herself became tired of the character.She killed him off in a novel written during World War II but not published until 1975.The New York Times then gave him a front-page obituary().Today,lots of people around the world still like Poirot.Books about him are still popular.Many of his stories have been made into films.And Sophie Hannah,a British novelist,has tried to bring Poirot back to life in a series of new stories.
