书摘
People have always enjoyed telling stories and hearing them.Stories of adventure* about brave men and women in danger have always been popular*. And people have always liked mystery*stories. They like them because they are exciting and a little frightening*at the same time. But until about 1830 few people read them. In those days most people did not learn to read and write. Books were very expensive and readers did not usually spend money on fiction*.
But after 1830 things changed very quickly. Almost all the stories in this book were written between 1830 and 1914. During that time, popular novels*were published for the first time. As more people learned to read, businessmen produced*magazines*. These cost only a penny and came out*every week. Many great novels in the nineteenth century were first printed*in these magazines and later published*as books. By 1870 everybody in Britain had to go to school and by 1900 almost everybody could read. The novelists*wrote the kinds of story that interested ordinary*readers.
The nineteenth century was a time when scientists* were discovering*new things every year. People were excited but also worried when they read the scientists' reports*.What happens if an experiment*goes wrong? Mary Shelley*was the first to ask this question in a famous story, Frankenstein. Her scientist wants to create*life but creates a monster*. Many years later, Robert Louis Stevenson* wrote a powerful story about a scientist who uses himself for his experiment. There is good and bad in everybody.But what happens if you can become two people, one good and one bad? This is the story of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
In those days, houses were dark at night because there was no electric* light. It was easy to imagine* ghosts* there. And in other countries worse things probably existed. Bram Stoker*imagined a vampire* living in Romania. The vampire drank human blood.Readers today know his name, Dracula*, because they have seen
him in many films.
