Everyone knows about Brazil's beautiful beaches, the Amazon rainforest, and the wonderful Carnival of Rio de Janeiro. But there is a lot more to Brazil than this: here you can find interesting old towns, modern cities, and thousands of different kinds of animals and plants. It is home to worldfamous artists and writers, and international sporting events like the World Cup and the Olympics, too. What other interesting things can you see here? Why is there music and dancing on its streets?
Sherlock Holmes: The Norwood Mystery - Dominoes readers (Level 2)Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Text adaptation by Jeremy Page
'For me, Watson, life is not so interesting,' says Holmes.
'I loved to read the newspaper, hoping to find some news of an interesting crime for me to investigate or a dangerous criminal for me to catch. Where are all those clever criminals these days?'
Then, suddenly, a wild, excited young man runs up the stairs to Holmes' room. He has a story to tell about a strange crime that took place in Norwood. But who is the criminal? And is he dangerous? Life, for Holmes, suddenly starts to get interesting.
Literature is a word that is used in more than one sense, but the present book is concerned with one only, namely that which connotes words used in such a way that they convey some degree of genuinely personal vision, of interesting outlook or attitude.
