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.

All the following are assumptions once made about the iceman EXCEPT_______________.
A:he was a soldier in World War Ⅰ
B:he came from Italy
C:he was a Swiss woman's long-lost father
D:he was born about a thousand years ago

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college, for many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and 21 his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted．
On the morning of his graduation day, his father called him into his own study and told him how 22 he was to have such a fine son. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. Curious but slightly disappointed, the young man 23 the box and found a lovely book. Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said．" 24 all your money you give me a book? " And rushed out of the house leaving the book in the study.
He did not contact his father for a whole year 25 one day he saw in the street an old man who looked like his father. He realized he had to go back home and see his father.
When he arrived at his father's house, he was told that his father had been in hospital for a week. The moment he was about to 26 the hospital. He saw on the desk the still new book, just as he had left it one 27ago. He opened it and began to turn the pages.

Passage Two
The thought of not sleeping for twenty-four hours or more is not a pleasant one for most people．The amount of sleep that each person needs varies．In general,each of us needs about eight hours of sleep each day to keep our bodies healthy and happy．Some people,however,can get by just a few hours of sleep at night．
It doesn't matter when or how much a person sleeps．But everyone needs some rest to stay alive．Few doctors would have thought that there might be an exception on this．Sleep is,after all,a very basic need．But a man named AI Herpin turned out to be a real exception,for supposedly,he never slept!
A1 Herpin was 90 years old when doctors came to his home in New Jersey．They hoped to negate the claims that he never slept．But they were surprised．Though they watched him every hour of the day,they never saw Herpin sleeping．He did not even own a bed．He never needed one．
The closest that Herpin came to resting was to sit in a rocking chair and read a half dozen news-papers．His doctors were baffled by this strange case of permanent insomnia．Herpin offered the only clue to his condition．He remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days be-fore he had been born．Herpin died at the age of 94,never having slept a wink．

The most likely reason on Herpion's insomnia was______

A.his mother's injury before he was born
B.that he never got tired
C.his magnificent physical condition
D.that he got enough rest rocking

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 from 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 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.

All the following are assumptions once made about the iceman EXCEPT__________.
A:he was a Swiss woman's long-lost father
B:he came from Italy
C:he was a soldier in World War I
D:he was born about a thousand years ago

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 the 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 modem dating techniques,the. scientists soon leamed that the iceman was about 5,300 years old.
Bom in about 3300 B.C.,he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe.At first scientists thought he was proba-
bly a hunter who had died in an accident in the high mountains.More recent evidence,however,tells a differ-
ent story.A new kind of X-ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his
