    George works in a small hotel. One day, it was raining heavily, an old couple (老夫妇) came to the hotel and asked for a room.

    Audrey Hepburn won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie, Roman Holiday, which was showed in 1953. But she is remembered as much for her help as for her acting.

    Born in Belgium in 1929, Audrey's father was British and her mother was Dutch. Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood. During World war Ⅱ, she lived and studied in the Netherlands. Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks. Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college. But when she returned to London after the war she realized she wasn't going to be a ballet dancer. So she began taking acting parts in stage shows. Later she began to get small parts in movies.

    But it was Audrey Hepburn's move to America that made her truly famous. In 1951 she played the character "Gigi" in the Broadway play Gigi and won popular praise. Two years later, Roman Holiday made her a star at the age of 24.

    Audrey made more than 25 movies. Among her most popular roles was "Hoolly Golinghtly"in Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961. Three years later she played "Eliza Doolittle" in My Fair Lady. She was married twice. In 1989, the UN Children's Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador. She travelled all over the world in support of UNICEF(联合国儿童基金会) projects. The UN agency said she was a tireless worker. She often gave 15 interviews a day to raise money and get support for UNICEF projects.

    Audrey Hepburn often said her love to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World War II. Shesaid she knew what it was like to be hungry and to be saved by international help. She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from cancer.

    "The hound(猎犬)!" cries Holmes. "Come, Watson! Come."

    We run quickly over the moor(荒野). We hear one last cry. A man is lying on the ground. As we approach(靠近) we see the dead body of Sir Henry Baskerville. He is wearing his brown suit.

    "Oh, no!" says Holmes, "This man has a beard!"

    Indeed Selden is dead instead of Sir Henry.

    "So it is all clear to me. I remember that Sir Henry gave his old suit to Barrymore, and Barrymore probably gave it to Selden—his wife's brother."

    "Then Selden is dead because of this suit," says Holmes.

    "Think, Watson! Someone gives the hound some of Sir Henry's clothes—probably the boot from the hotel in London. The hound picks up Sir Henry's scent and runs after this poor man."

    Suddenly we see Stapleton walking towards us. He says, "There was a strange noise. I was worried about Sir Henry. I wanted to check if he was all right."

    "Really?" asks Holmes.

    Stapleton looks at Holmes. "Why, it is Mr. Sherlock Holmes, the famous detective! Can you solve the mystery of the Hound of the Baskervilles?"

    Holmes shrugs his shoulders," We cannot solve every mystery. Anyway I will return to London tomorrow."

    "Oh, will you return to London tomorrow?"

    "Yes."

    So Holmes and I walk off to Baskerville Hall and Stapleton walk to his home.

    Holmes thinks Stapleton is dangerous. But we have no proof that Stapleton is the murderer.

    "There are no marks on Sir Charles's body. We know that he died of fright, but we can't prove anything."

    "Things are becoming clear to me," Holmes says to Sir Henry. "It's a very difficult case. And you must help me to catch this hound."

    We are surprised to see one portrait(画像) of a thin man is Sir Hugo, the first victim of the Hound of the Baskervilles. And he's like both Sir Henry and Stapleton. "Stapleton is a Baskerville," replies Holmes. "So he wants to inherit(继承) the Baskerville fortune, and he…," I say. It's an important clue.
