| It's said that none of the British writers of our age enjoyed such popularity all over the world as Agatha Christie did.Her works were translated into many languages,and many films were made using them as the script.
The name of Agatha Cristie is a synonym for high- class detective story, as well as Pele is a symbol of football, and Marilyn Monre is an embodiment of feminity.
According to Agatha Christie herself, she began to write just to imitate her sister whose stories had already been published in magazines.And suddenly Agatha Christie became famous as if by miracle.
The favourite personages of the" queen of detective story"are the detective Hercules Poirot and the sedate Miss Marple who carry out investigations in noisy London and delusive quiet.The composition of her stories is very simple : a comparatively closed space with a limited number of characters, who are often plane or train passengers,tourists, hotel guests or residents of a cosy old village. Everyone is suspected.Murders in the books of Agatha Christie are commited in most unsuitable places:in the vicar's garden or in an old abbey, corpses are found in someone's libraries being murded with the help of tropical fishes, a poker, candelabra, a dagger or poison.
once Agatha Christie wrote "Some ten years will pass after my death, and nobody will even remember me.. "The writer was mistaken.Agatha Christie's novels are very popular now.People of all countries read and reread"The Oriental Express","Ten little Negroes","The Corpse in the library", and other of her novels, enjoy films made by her works , and one can hardly find a country where people don't know her name

| As an old saying goes, man cannot live on bread alone. Books are the source of knowledge.Sometimes it is difficult to solve some problems in life. I think that books can help us.Books must be our friends during all our life

| Elisa is the main character of Bernard Shaw's famous comedy"Pigmalion. "Eliza is 18, she has a strong Cockney accent. She comes from the lowest social level.She makes money by selling flowers in the streets of London.
Once Elisa meets Henry Higgis, a professor of phonetics. Elisa and Higgins begin to work hard at the girl's pronounciation and manners .Higgins makes an agreement with his friend Pickering that he will pass Elisa off as a duchess in six months.At last before six months are over, she is well prepared to be introduced into the society.Pickering and Higgins take her to a dinner party and the Queen's dancing party. Everything is good and professor wins his bet. But what is to become of a poor girl now when the game is over?She has acquired some culture and she wants to do useful work. Anyway she can't sell flowers in the streets again.She wants her share of respect and independence.I like Elisa's quick wit, sense of humour and moral strength.The character of this girl shows how much force and talent lies undeveloped in common people.Elisa, thanks to her mind and abilities, reaches a lot in life.And eventually people get to appreciate her

| One of my favourite writers is Agatha Christie, a famous author of crime stories. One of her stories that I read not long ago is "Dumb Witness".Hercule Poirot is the funny detective who takes himself very seriously and says that his intellect helps him to solve crime cases.
