设法与神交流
For many years, historians believed Stonehenge was a temple (where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods.) However, historian Paul Stoker thinks this can’t be true because Stonehenge was built so many centuries ago. “The leaders arrived in England much later”, he points out.

Another popular idea is that Stonehenge might be a kind of calendar. The large stones were put together in a certain way. On mid summer’s morning, the sun shines directly into the center of the stones. Other people believe the stones have a medical purpose. They think the stones can prevent illness and keep people healthy. “As you walk there, you can feel the energy from your feet move up your body,” said one visitor. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for, but most agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose. Some think it might be a burial place or a place to honor ancestors. Others think it was built to celebrate a victory over an enemy.

Para. 4
Stonehenge was built slowly over a long period of time. Most historians believe it must be almost 5,000 years old. One of the greatest mysteries is how it was built because the stones are so big and heavy. In 2001, a group of English volunteers tried to build another Stonehenge, but they couldn’t. “ We don’t really know who built Stonehenge,” says Paul Stoker. “And perhaps we might never know , but we do know they must have been hard-working — and great planners!”

Thinking 2e
Can you think of any other mysteries, either in China or another part of the world, that are similar to Stonehenge What do you know about these mysteries What is mysterious about them Discuss them with your group.
所谓百慕大三角，即指北起百慕大，西到美国佛罗里
达洲的迈阿密，南至波多黎各的一个三角形海域。
面积达400000平方英里的海面上，从1945年开始
数以百计的飞机和船只，在这里神秘地失踪。这些失
踪事件不包括那些机械故障、政治绑架和海匪打劫等，
因为这些本不属于那种神秘失踪的范畴。
由于事件叠出，人们赋予这片海域以“魔鬼三角”、
“恶运海”、“魔海”、“海轮的墓地”等浑号。
现在，百慕大三角已经成为那些神秘的、不可理解
各种失踪事件的代名词。
