The Iceman

On a September day in 1991,two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy. High
up on a mountain pass,they found the body of a man lying on the ice.At that height(10,499 feet or 3,200
meters),the ice is usually permanent,but 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had
melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface.
It was lying face downward. The skeleton（骨架）was in perfect condition, except for a wound in the
head.There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes.The hands were still holding the
wooden handle of an ax and on the feet there were very simple leather and cloth boots.Nearby was a pair of
gloves made of tree bark（树皮）and a holder for arrows.
Who was this man?How and when had he died?Everybody had a different answer to these questions.
Some people thought that it was from this century,perhaps the body of a soldier who died in World War I,
since several soldiers had already been found in the area. A Swiss woman believed it might be her father,
who had died in those mountains twenty years before and whose body had never been found.The scientists
who rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older,maybe even a thousand years old.
With modern dating techniques,the scientists soon learned that the iceman was about 5,300 years old.
Born in about 3300 B.C.,he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe.At first scientists thought he was probably
a hunter who had died in an accident in the high mountains.More recent evidence,however,tells a different
story.A new kind of X-ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his skin,
but it caused internal damage and bleeding. He almost certainly died from this wound, and not from the
wound on the back of his head.This means that he was probably in some kind of a battle.It might have been
part of a larger war,or he might have beenl fighting bandits.He might even have been a bandit himself.
By studying his clothes and tools,scientists have already learned a great deal from the iceman about the
times he lived in.we may never know the full story of how he died,but he has given us important clues to the
history of those distant times.

The body of the iceman was found in the mountains mainly because__________.
A:two Germans were climbing mountains
B:he was just on a mountain pass
C: the melted ice made him visible
D:he was lying on the ice

Some young soldiers who had recently joined the army were being trained in modern ways of fighting,and one of the things they were shown was how an unarmed man could trick an armed enemy and take his weapon away from him．First one of their two instructors took a knife away from the other,using only his bare hands;and then he took a rifle away from him in the same way．After the lesson,and before they went on to train the young soldiers to do these things themselves,the two instructors asked them a number of questions to see how well they had understood what they had been shown．One of the questions was this:“Well,you now know what an unarmed man can do against a man with a rifle．Imagine that you are guarding a bridge at night,and that you have a rifle．Suddenly you see an unarmed enemy soldier coming towards you．What will you do?”
The young soldier who had to answer this question thought carefully for a few seconds before he answered,and then said,“Well,after what I have just seen,I think that the first thing I would do would be to get rid of my rifle as quickly as I could,so that the unarmed enemy couldn't take it from me and kill me with it!”

The ending of the passage is__.

A.serious
B.mysterious
C.curious
D.humorous

资料：We all know that lack of sleep affects our memory along with other cognitive abilities. Sitting in the office sleep deprives it’s difficult to remember your own name, let along the ever-lengthening to-do list.
But now new research shows that not getting enough sleep increases the chances your mind will actually create false memories. The study, published in Psychological Science, allowed one group of participants to get a full nights’ sleep while another had to stay up all night. In the morning they were given a series of photos that were supposed to show a crime being committed. Next, both groups were given some eyewitness statements about the crime. Like many witness statements in real-life crimes the details were different to those shown in the photographs. For example, in one instance the photo showed a thief putting a wallet in his jacket, but in the witness statement it said he put it in his pants（that's ‘trousers’ for British people not his underwear!）. Afterwards they were asked what they had seen in the original photographs. The results showed that those who'd missed out on their sleep were the most likely to regurgitate the false eyewitness statements they'd just read rather than remembering the ‘true’ crime-scene photos they'd been shown moments beforehand. The lack of sleep had messed with their heads to the extent the all the evidence—right and wrong—had got mixed up.
One of the study's authors, Kimberly Fenn, said:”People who repeatedly get low amounts of sleep every night could be more prone in the long run to develop these forms of memory distortion. It's not just a full night of sleep deprivation that puts them at risk. Indeed, a preliminary study they carried out found that getting just five hours sleep was enough to cause people to start manufacturing false memories.

What is the dependent variable in the study?

A.Creation of false memories
B.Memory deprivation
C.Crime being created
D.Different details shown

The Iceman

On a September day in 1991,two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy.High
up on a mountain pass,they found the body of a man lying on the ice.At that height(10,499 feet,or 3,200
meters),the ice is usually permanent,but 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had
melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface.
It was lying face downward. The skeleton（骨架）was in perfect condition, except for a wound in the
head.There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes.The hands were still holding the
wooden handle of an ax and on the feet there were very simple leather and cloth boots.Nearby was a pair of
gloves made of tree bark（树皮）and a holder for arrows.
Who was this man?How and when had he died?Everybody had a different answer to these questions.
Some people thought that it was from this century,perhaps the body of a soldier who died in World War Ⅰ ,
since several soldiers had already been found in the area. A Swiss woman believed it might be her father,who
had died in those mountains twenty years before and whose body had never been found.The scientists who
rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older,maybe even a thousand years old.
With modern dating techniques,the scientists soon learned that the Iceman was about 5,300 years old.
Born in about 3300 B.C.,he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe.At first scientists thought he was probably
a hunter who had died in an accident in the high mountains.More recent evidence,however,tells a different
story.A new kind of X-ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his skin,
but it caused internal damage and bleeding. He almost certainly died from this wound,and not from the
wound on the back of his head.This means that he was probably in some kind of a battle.It might have been
part of a larger war,or he might have been fighting bandits.He might even have been a bandit himself.
By studying his clothes and tools,scientists have already learned a great deal from the Iceman about the
times he lived in.We may never know the full story of how he died,but he has given us important clues to
the history of those distant times.

The word"bandits"in Paragraph 4 could be best replaced by__________.
A:soldiers
B:hunters
C:robbers
D:shooters

Sam Wilson stamped the boxes of meat for the army with a large US for United States.Some government inspectors came to look over Sam‘s company.They asked a worker what the US on the boxes stood for.As a joke，the worker answered that these letters stood for the name of his boss，Uncle Sam.
The joke spread，and soldiers began saying that their food came from Uncle Sam.Before long，people called all things that came from the government“Uncle Sam‘s”，“Uncle Sam”became a nickname for the US government.
