.
The mystery had reached its climax（高潮）：The man had undoubtedly been murdered．However, no one present knew who could have killed such a kind person． It was therefore time to call in the great detective, who gave one searching glance at the corpse（尸体）, and then used a microscope．
“Aha!” he jumped as he picked a hair off the dead man’s coat．“The mystery is a mystery no longer．We have only to find the man who lost this hair, and the criminal will be in our hands．” The chain of logic was complete, and the detective started to do his search．
For four days and four nights he moved unobserved through the streets of New York, scanning closely every face, looking for a man who had lost a hair．On the fifth day he discovered a man pretending to be a tourist, and his head was enveloped in a cap reaching below his ears．The man was about to board the Gloritania, and the detective lost no time in following him on board．
“Arrest him!” shouted the detective, and then, drawing himself to his full height, he took out the hair．“This is his,” said the great detective, “and it proves his guilt．”
“Remove his hat,” ordered the ship’s captain firmly．
It was discovered that the man had no hair．
“Aha!” said the great detective without a moment’s hesitation． “He has committed not one murder, but about one million!”

(Reuters)－At least 115 miners were pulled alive from a flooded coal mine in north China after being trapped for over a week, eating bark to survive, prompting extremely happy officials to hail their survival a miracle．
Officials said 153 miners were trapped in the unfinished Wangjialing mine, belonging to two of China's larger state-owned firms in Xiangning, Shanxi Province, after water gushed(喷, 涌)into the shafts last Sunday．
Late on Sunday night and throughout Monday, the survivors were pulled out from a platform, where the rescuers had drilled a vertical hole to ensure oxygen in the water-flooded pit and send down bags of glucose(葡萄糖)．Thirty-eight miners were still missing．
"It is a miracle," said Luo Lin, head of the State Administration of Work Safety．"The trapped miners stayed so firmly determined down the mine shaft, passing through eight days and eight nights to live．" The workers also survived by eating bark from pine wood used in building the mines, Chinese television said．
The government had succeeded in encouraging thousands of rescue workers to pump out water and search for the miners．After that, the water level dropped low enough for rescue workers to enter the shaft．
It was rare good news in China's dangerous coal-mining industry, the deadliest in the world with thousands killed every year in floods, explosions, collapses and other accidents．Shanxi Province is the heartland of that industry．
Strong demand for energy and not strict safety standards have made China's mines often deadly places to work, despite a government drive to clamp down on(对……进行压制或取缔)small, unsafe operations where most accidents occur．
Workers are tempted into(被诱惑去)the mines by wages that can be much higher than for many other jobs open to blue-collar workers and rural migrants．
China has consolidated(合并)or taken over many private mines, which has helped cut accidents．According to official statistics, the number of people killed in Chinese coal mines dropped to 2,631 in 2009, an average of seven a day, from 3,215 in 2008．But the deadliest accidents are not limited to private firms．
1．According to the second paragraph, what caused the serious accident?(no more than 6 words)
2．How did the rescuers manage to send down oxygen and bags of glucose into the pit?(no more than 5 words)
3．According to the passage, what measures does the government take to help cut accidents?(no more than 13 words)
4．What is the news about?(no more than 12 words)
