第四部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
The Man of Many Secrets — Harry Houdini — was one of the greatest American entertainers in the theater this century. He was a man famous for his escapes — from prison cells
from wooden boxes floating in rivers
from locked tanks full of water. He appeared in theaters all over Europe and America. Crowds came to see the great Houdini and his “magic” tricks.
his secret was not magic
or supernatural powers. It was simply strength. He had the ability to move his toes as well as he moved his fingers. He could move his body into almost any position he wanted.
Houdini started working in the entertainment world when he was 17
in 1891. He and his brother Theo performed card tricks in club in New York. They called themselves the Houdini Brothers. When Harry married in 1894
he and his wife Bess worked together as magician and assistant. But for a long time they were not very successful. Then Harry performed his first prison escape
in Chicago in 1898. Harry persuaded a detective to let him try to escape from the prison
and he invited the local newspapermen to watch.
It was the publicity(宣传) that came from this that started Harry Houdini’s success. Harry had fingers trained to escape from handcuffs(手铐) and toes trained to escape ankle chains. But his biggest secret was how he unlocked the prison doors. Every time he went into the prison cell
Bess gave him a kiss for good luck — and a small skeleton key
which is a key that fits many locks
passed quickly from her mouth to his.
Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame. He arranged to escape from the local prison of every town he visited. In the afternoon
the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers
and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full. What was the result? World-wild fame
and a name remembered today.
