Step II Reading
T: Scan the passage quickly and answer the questions.
Who actually stole the Moonstone?
S: Godfrey.
T: Now you are given some more time to read the text for some detailed information. Then answer some questions.
Whom did the detective suspect of having taken the Moonstone?
S: Many people were suspected, including Godfrey, Dr Candy, Franklin, Rosanna, the Indians and Rachel.
T: In fact, most of them were innocent. The story tells us Rachel was also innocent. But why didn’t she answer Sergeant Cuff’s questions?
S: The reason why she did it was that she saw Franklin take the diamond and wanted to protect him from Sergeant Cuff by not answering his questions.
T: According to the text, Rachel actually saw Franklin take the Moonstone. Howerer, Franklin didn’t remember anything. Do you know why?
S: Because Dr Candy had put some opium into Franklin’s drink to prove to him that it would be helpful for sleeping.
T: According to the text, we know Godfrey stole the diamond. But to our surprise, Godfrey was murdered, and the Moonstone was still missing. Who do you think was guilty for Godfrey’s death? What clues can you find to support your guess?
S: Some Indians who appeared at Rachel’s birthday behaved strangely. Some Indians attacked Godfrey. The Moonstone returned to its true home in India, where it once again decorates the forehead of the statue of the moon god. So we can infer that some Indians were guilty for Godfrey’s death.
