Who Killed the Iceman?
4
In 1991, high in the mountains of Europe, hikers made a shocking discovery.
5
A dead man partly frozen in the ice.
6
The police investigation soon became a scientific one.
7
Carbon dating indicated that the man died over 5,300 years ago.
8
Today, he is known as the Iceman and nicknamed Utsi for the Uttal Alps where he was found.
9
Kept in perfect condition by the ice,
10
he is the oldest complete human body found on Earth. Who was the Iceman?
11
Scientists believe Utsi was an important person in his village.
12
Examinations of his teeth and skull tell us he was in his mid-forties when he died.
13
The things he carried also tell us about who he was.
14
His knife was made of stone, but he carried a copper axe.
15
This was a valuable tool in Utsi's time, and suggests that he may have been a local leader.
16
A fire-starting kit was discovered with him, so we know he could make fire.
17
And the food he ate and carried enabled scientists to know exactly where in Italy he lived, a village down in the valley.
18
Clues to an ancient murder.
19
But why did Utsi die in such a high and icy place?
20
Some said he was a lost farmer or shepherd.
21
Others thought he was killed in a religious ceremony.
22
No one knows for sure.
23
Over the years, tiny scientific discoveries have led to great changes in our understanding of Utsi's story.
24
Once the story was that he fled up there and walked around in the snow and probably died of exposure, said scientist Klaus Ogle.
25
Now it's all changed.
26
It's more like a crime scene.
27
A bloody discovery.
28
In fact, the newest scientific information indicates Utsi was cruelly murdered.
29
In June 2001, an x-ray of the body showed a small dark shape beneath Utsi's left shoulder.
30
It was the stone head of an arrow that had hit him from behind.
31
CT scans showed that this caused an injury that killed him very quickly.
32
Then, in 2003, an Australian scientist discovered the blood of four other people on Utsi's clothes.
33
Was Utsi killed in a fight?
34
It isn't likely, as Utsi's other injuries on his hand and head had already started to close.
35
This means there probably was a fight, but it happened much earlier.
36
Perhaps Utsi was being chased when he died.
37
In 2010, scientists took the mummy out of the cold and examined him again.
38
They discovered that just before his death, he had a big meal of bread
39
and goat meat in 2018 further analysis of his stomach showed utzi had also eaten deer meat
40
would someone being chased stop to eat a large meal the scientists don't think
41
so more likely he was attacked while resting he may have thought he had escaped and was safe today the research continues,
42
proving some of these ideas as false while opening the door to others.
43
Utsi, it seems, has more to tell us about his life and the time in which he lived.

Over deze les
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
