The story of the red-crowned crane
Have you ever heard of the song “ The story of the red-crowned crane” It is about a girl called Xu Xiujuan.
Xiujuan was born in Zhalong, Heilongjiang Province in 1964. Her father’s job was to look after red-crowned cranes. Xiujuan started helping her father when she was young. She soon showed a great love for these white birds. She became good at raising them.
When Xiujuan was 21, she got a job at a nature reserve in Jiangsu Province. She enjoyed taking care of the baby cranes. If a bird became sick, she took good care of it and stayed with it every day until it was strong enough to fly again.
In September 1987, one of the birds went missing. The workers in the
nature reserve looked everywhere, but no one could find it. Xiujuan was
very worried. She looked for it day and night for two days. On the second
night, while she was looking for the missing bird, she fell into a river and
died. She was only 23.
Later, a song was written in memory of Xiujuan. Though Xiujuan died young, people always remember her when they hear the song or see a red-crowned crane.

A
Ancient Egyptians believed in life after death and that the soul would return to the body. One requirement was the preservation (保存) of the body. To achieve this, Egyptians followed a process called mummification (木乃伊化). However, it was not only humans who were mummified. Animals were also mummified and placed in tombs (坟墓) to either provide company for the dead or serve as a sacrifice (祭品) to gods.
Egyptian animal mummies look like little more than bundles of (成捆的) cloth. It was difficult for scientists to know much about them beyond what animals they were—until now.
A team of researchers led by engineer Richard Johnston from Swansea University, UK, have used new technology to examine the remains (遗骸) of a snake, a bird and a cat that lived over 2,000 years ago.
According to Science Daily, the researchers used X-ray micro CT scanning to digitally (数字化地) unwrap and dissect (解剖) the mummified animals without causing damage. The scans were very detailed, down to the animals' smallest bones and teeth.
The micro CT works by taking thousands of individual X-rays from all angles (角度) while the mummy rotates (旋转) 360 degrees.
The 3D scans can then be printed or placed into virtual reality (VR, 虚拟现实).
“With VR, I can effectively make the cat skull (颅骨) as big as my house and wander around it,” Johnston told Science News. This way, the team was able to get a glimpse(一瞥) into the lives and deaths of these animals.
Based on the teeth that had not grown out, scientists predicted that the cat was less than five months old when it was strangled (勒死) to death. The snake died as a result of a whipping (鞭打) action, but also may have had kidney (肾) damage, possibly due to a lack of water.
The animal mummies “provide a glimpse into the distant past, like a time capsule (时间胶囊)”, Johnston told AFP.
Thanks to this groundbreaking technology, the secrets in the “time capsules”, for example, the cause of death of those ancient Egyptian mummies, are revealed.
( )1. What did the ancient Egyptians believe when people passed away
A. Animals should be placed in tombs to provide company for the dead.
B. Animals should be served as a sacrifice to gods.
C. There was life after death and the soul would return to the body after death.
D. The body must be preserved after death.
( )2. What did the ancient Egyptians do to keep the body from decaying(腐化)
A. They put them in the pyramids. B. They did mummification.
C. They put animals with humans. D. They froze bodies.
( )3. Which of the following is best suited for the underlined word “groundbreaking”
A. underground B. breaking the ground
C. making new discoveries D. introducing new ideas
( )4. What is the use of the micro CT
A. It can digitally unwrap and dissect the mummified animals without causing damage.
B. It can check the mummified animals from all angles.
C. It can be printed or placed into virtual reality.
D. All of the above.
( )5. What is the title of the passage
A. The micro CT B. Unwrapping ancient mysteries
C. Mummies D. Time capsules
B
A. Try getting a group of friends or family together.
B. This could be fast walking or cycling on a flat road.
C. Regular activity benefits your health in many ways.
D. You should get more exercise and eat less to keep fit.
E. Joining a sports club is a cheap way of getting exercise.
F. Many of us spend seven hours or more just sitting on a chair each day.
How much physical activity do you do in a week Are you getting enough exercise __1_______ For example, people who exercise regularly are less likely to suffer from many diseases. Regular exercise reduces the risk of early death by 30%. It also improves your sleep quality.
Today, most adults are much less active than in the past because our jobs are far less physical than the work our grandparents used to do. __2_______This lack of regular physical activity means people bum fewer calories than in the past, so we need to do something to consume (消耗) our energy. Experts think adults need to do 2.5 hours of moderate exercise per week. __3_______ Exercise can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. Team sports such as football can be cheap because all the players share the cost of the field. __4_______It can also be very social.
If you don’t want to spend any money, try one of the following activities. Go for a run. The only equipment you need is a pair of running shoes. If you take the bus, try getting off one stop early and walking the extra distance. Go to the park. __5_______ You can play different kinds of games there. This is a great way to involve family members and friends.
In short, there are many easy ways of keeping fit. If we all recognize the value of doing this, we will live longer and be healthier.
