III. Reading (30pt)

“Columbo” was my favorite TV series when I was a child, so it sounded natural when I told my family I decided
to be a detective. After years of hard work I realize my duties have less to do with the glamour of Hollywood
movies than I thought at the beginning, but it’s still more challenging and full of emotion than most of the jobs
my friends have.
When I arrive at a crime scene my first duty is to pay attention to every detail and collect proof of what had
happened. I have to check the suspects list and discover if they have any motives to want the person dead. When I
find a clue I have to use it in order to find a solution to the crime.
Fortunately there aren’t many murders where I live, so in most of the days I investigate bank assaults or house
invasions. There aren’t nice either, but it’s much better to try to catch a thief than an assassin.
Columbo is an American crime fiction TV series, starring Peter Falk as Lieutenant Columbo, a homicide
detective with the Los Angeles Police Department. It was created by William Link and Richard Levinson. The
show popularized the inverted detective story format. With the exception of a couple of special episodes with
added twists, almost every episode began by showing the commission of the crime and its perpetrator. As such,
there is no "whodunit" element. The plot mainly revolves around how the perpetrator, whose identity is known,
would finally be exposed and arrested. The show's creator once referred to it as a "howcatchem"
A. Answer the questions.
1. Why wasn’t a surprise for the man’s family when he decided to be a detective?
________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. What did he realize about his job?
________________________________________________________________________________________________
3. How does he describe it?

________________________________________________________________________________________________
4. What’s his first duty at a crime scene? What does that mean?
________________________________________________________________________________________________
5. What does he do next?
________________________________________________________________________________________________
B. Write true (T) or false (F)
