第三篇

On 8th November 1974 Lord Lucan,a British aristocrat,vanished.The day before,his children's nanny had been brutally murdered and his wife had been attacked too.To this day the British public are still interested in the murder case because Lucan has never been found.Now,over 30 years later,the police have reopened the case,hoping that new DNA techniques will help solve this murder mystery.
People suspected that"Lucky",as he was called by friends,wanted to kill his wife he no longer lived with.They say that Lucan entered his old house and in the dark,killed the nanny by mistake. His estranged wife heard noises,came downstairs and was also attacked,but managed to escape. Seven months after the murder,a jury concluded that Lucan had killed the nanny.
What happened next is unclear,but there are several theories which fall into one of three categories:he may have killed himself,he could have escaped or he might have been killed.It appears that the night after the murder,"Lucky"borrowed a car and drove it,Lucan's friend Aspinall said in an interview that he thought Lucan had committed suicide by sinking his boat in the English Channel.
Another version of events says that"Lucky"left the blood-soaked car on the coast and took a ferry to France.He was met there by someone who drove him to safety in another country.However, after a time,his rescuers became worried that they would become involved in the murder too and so Lucan was killed.
A further fascinating theory was made in the book Dead Lucky by Duncan Mac Laiwhlin.a former detective.He believes that Lucan traveled to Goa,India,where he assumed the identity of a Mr. Barry Haplin. Lucan then lived in Goa till his death in 1996.In the end the claim turned out to be a case of mistaken identity. The man who died in 1996 was really Haplin,an ex-school teacher turned hippy. So what is the truth about Lucky?DNA testing has solved many murder cases,but who knows if it can close the book on this one.
选项 The public are still interested in the investigation because________.
A:of the terrible murder
B:of the use of new DNA techniques
C:Lord Lucan has never been found
D:Lord Lucan was famous
答案C
解析文章第一段告诉我们公众之所以对此案感兴趣是因为Lucan还没被找到。因此只有选项C是正确的。
第二段讲到，保姆被杀是因为天黑看不清楚，而被Lucan误杀了。因此选项C是正确的。
文章第三段最后一句提到Lucan的朋友在一个采访中表示，他觉得Lucan 在英吉利海峡弄沉了自己坐的船自杀了。因此选项D是正确的。
根据第四段我们知道救Lucan的人担心自己也会被卷入到谋杀案件中，因此杀了Lucan。最符合此意的为B项，意思为他们觉得如果Lucan被捕，他有可能跟警察提起这些人。
从文章最后一段的叙述我们知道Mac Laughlin确信Lucan逃到了印度，在那里换了个身份，假装成Barry Haplin。因此选项C是正确的。
