The Unexplained Mystery of Pyramid

The Pyramids in Egypt are really something special. We still don’t really know how the Egyptians built the largest pyramid at all, known as the Great Pyramid of Cheops (or Khufu), some 5,000 years ago. Remember, this was even before the invention of the wheel.

The most famous pyramids are the Egyptian pyramids — huge structures built of brick or stone, some of which are among the world’s largest constructions. The age of the pyramids reached its top at Giza in 2575-2150 B.C. In 2008, some 138 pyramids have been discovered in Egypt. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the largest in Egypt and one of the largest in the world. Until Lincoln Cathedral in England was finished in AD 1311, it was the tallest building in the world. The base is over 52,600 square meters in area. While pyramids are associated(關(guān)聯(lián)的) with Egypt, the nation of Sudan has 220 extant pyramids, the most numerous in the world.

In the 1940s, a radio engineer named Karel Drbal claimed(聲稱) that small pyramids of a 1:1,000 scale as the Great Pyramid could sharpen knives. His explanation was that the pyramid shape focuses energy when precisely aligned (精確對齊) on the north-south axis (軸), which can renew steel.

Though the claims of Drbal and others, there is no scientific evidence that Pyramids have power. It is a cut and dry myth, probably driven by the nature of pyramids and their ancient, unexplained mysteries.

As the neurologist (神經(jīng)學(xué)家) Terence Hines wrote: “People became quite crazy about Pyramid Power in the world of pseudoscience for a time in the mid-1970s. Actually, the idea was that the pyramidal shape itself was magical and filled with a mysterious energy and power.”

1.When did the pyramids develop the best?

A.in 2575-2150 B.C B.In 2008 C.in AD 1311

3.What does the underline word evidence mean in the passage?

A.方法 B.證據(jù) C.痕跡

4.According to Karel Drbal __________.

A.the small pyramids of a 1:1,000 scale as the Great Pyramid are very sharp. ‘

B.the small pyramids of a 1:1,000 scale as the Great Pyramid can renew steel.

Music is something that every person has his or her own opinion about. Different people have different tastes, and various types of music have many ways of leaving an effect on someone. It can be relaxing, angering, soothing (撫慰的), energizing, and many more.

There are so many types of music out there today. Rap, pop, rock, country, indie, alternative, hardcore are some of the abundant (豐富的) types in the world. Music sends out either good or bad messages that have big impacts on how people act. People usually become friends with others who have the same taste in music as the rest of the people they hang out with. People may not want to associate with people who have different tastes in music because they’ll argue about what they think is better, but they are just their own opinions.

Rap and Rock music are two very important types of music in the world. They both send out different messages and help kids. The lyrics sung or rapped by the artists can be things going on in their own personal lives, and people with the same types of problems can listen to them so they know their hopes and people like this out there in the world. Music can also serve as a catalyst (催化劑) for new ideas. When people listen to the new things out there, they learn different things going on in the world and they become more open-minded.

People can use music to express themselves, in ways it can’t be expressed through behavior, or art. You can usually tell how someone’s feeling by the type of music he or she is listening to at the time. It’s a tool used by many. Groups of people around the world can come together and gather at concerts, shows, and venues to show what their interests and likings are and you see how many people have similar likings as you.

A proverb is a short, well-known saying that expresses a common truth or belief. Proverbs are found in most cultures and are often very old. The phrase, "The early bird catches the worm, "may be true. It means people who wake up early get more done than people who don’t. 1.. He said," Early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."

Scientists have found that people who go to bed before 11 p.m. may do better in life than people who sleep around 2:30 a.m., which is also believed by a group of researchers. 2.. Their research showed that people who slept and got up early(early birds)had an average (平均) sleep over people who slept and woke up late at night (owls).There were differences in the brain function (功能) of early birds and night owls.

The scientists tested 38 people in their research. These persons answered questions about their sleeping habits and when they felt tired during the day. 3.. One is called early bird, the other is night owl depending on their answers.

All of the people had tests on their brains and did different tests throughout the day. The early birds said they felt less sleepy and were able to do the test more quickly than the night owls. 4.. They said, night owls go to sleep late, but during school time, they have to get up earlier, and they easily get tired in class. They always have to fight against their bad habits and natural rhythms (節(jié)奏).”

In the morning this Wednesday, a red bronze horse-head statue (銅像) was donated back by Macao-based tycoon and collector Stanley Ho Hung-sun and handed over to the National Cultural Heritage Administration in Beijing (北京文化遺產(chǎn)管理處)China on November 13th ,2019.

These animal-head taps took turns to spray(噴) water during different hours within a day, at noon, a salvo(同時噴水) would happen.

The invading Anglo-French Alliance Forces(英法聯(lián)軍) rampaged through the Old Summer Palace and set it on fire in 1860. Millions of national treasures, including the 12 animal-head statues, were taken abroad in the war.

Ho spent HK$ 69.1 million ($8.8 million) to buy the statue in September 2007, and publicly exhibited it in Hong Kong and Macao promoting people’s consciousness (意識) of protecting cultural relics.

Ho decided to donate it back to the mainland on 20th anniversary of Macao’s return to China, after he contacted the National Cultural Heritage Administration, which said the statue will be given back to the Yuanmingyuan administration.

The horse-head statue is the seventh that has returned to Beijing among the 12 articles from the Old Summer Palace fountain, the rest of which are hoped to be returned in future.

Who is the greatest English writer? The person should be William Shakespeare (莎士比亞). His popular expressions like “to be or not to be, that is a question” are spread everywhere在他的一生中，他寫了大量的作品。

Willam Shakespeare was born in a small town in England in 1564. He was educated at the King’s New School, a free grammar school that was located in Stratford. There he studied the basic Latin text and grammar. 據(jù)說在學(xué)校，比起數(shù)學(xué)他更喜歡學(xué)習(xí)語言。 Later, he moved to London and began to work as a writer. By 1594, he had become an important writer in London.

Whether comedies or tragedies (悲劇), Shakespeare’s plays always touch people’s hearts. His comedies make a joke on human weaknesses and always have happy endings. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, fairies (仙子). play magical tricks on people who get lost in the woods. His tragedies, however, can be very dark. Macbeth tells the story about a man who becomes a king by killing a lot of people.

Of course, Shakespeare wrote his plays over 400 years ago. His English is very different from that of today. But it doesn’t influence his popularity. His plays which have been translated into other languages are also popular in the world.

William Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616. He was 52 years old at the time of his death. But Shakespeare truly has a great influence on English and even many other languages.
