Track 5 Reading 3A Was King Tut murdered?
2
King Tutankhamen was still a teenager when he died around 1322 BC.
3
He ruled Egypt for ten years, the last king of a powerful family that had ruled the country for centuries.
4
After his death, the body of King Tut, as Tutankhamen is usually known today, was placed in a gold-filled tomb.
5
There he lay forgotten until the tomb's discovery in 1922.
6
Although we know a lot about his life, the reason for King Tut's death at such a young age has remained a mystery,
7
with murder the most extreme possibility.
8
Now, improved X-ray technology and DNA testing are offering new clues into the life and death of the boy king.
9
Discovered and Damaged When British archaeologist Howard Carter opened King Tut's tomb,
10
it was full of gold and other amazing items.
11
Carter spent months carefully recording the treasures.
12
When he and his team attempted to remove King Tut's mummy, they found that it had become attached to its solid gold coffin.
13
Unfortunately, they caused a great deal of damage to the mummy while removing it.
14
Theories about Tut's death In 1968,
15
archaeologists conducted an examination of King Tut's mummy using simple X-ray technology.
16
Three important discoveries led to various theories about his death.
17
The X-rays showed that bones in Tut's chest were missing.
18
Some guessed the damage was caused by a war injury or an accident.
19
There was a small hole in the back of the skull and pieces of bone inside it, causing many to believe that Tut was killed by a blow to the back of the head.
20
Was he murdered by people wanting to take control of Egypt?
21
A serious fracture was discovered on Tut's left leg.
22
Tut had been hurt a few hours before his death.
23
Could an infection from the injury have killed Tut?
24
A closer look.
25
In 2005, scientists under the direction of Egyptian archaeologist Sahih Hawass used new and more effective x-ray technology to study the mummy.
26
They discovered that the damage to Tut's chest was caused by Howard Carter,
27
and the hole in Tut's skull was made when embalmers were preparing the body for burial.
28
While this ruled out one theory, that of murder, it still doesn't tell us exactly how he died.
29
Then, in 2008, Hawass and his team analyzed Tut's DNA.
30
They found that he suffered from flat feet as well as a bone disease.
31
This would have made it difficult for him to walk.
32
When they analyzed the DNA of the mummies in other tombs nearby, they made some shocking discoveries.
33
They found Tut's father and mother, who had similar DNA, were actually brother and sister.
34
The DNA they passed on to Tut may have left him highly vulnerable to disease such as malaria.
35
Did an infection that started in his fractured leg added to the bone disease cause his death?
36
No one knows for sure, but Hawass and his team hope they will someday have an answer to this age-old mystery.
37
Inside King Tut's Tomb The tomb of Tutankhamun was found hidden in the Valley of the Kings.
38
Although some of its outer rooms were robbed in ancient times, the tomb itself was not opened.
39
Inside were walls decorated with colourful paintings and nine layers of wood,
40
stone and gold, protecting the body of the king.
41
To reach King Tut's mummy, Carter and his team had to remove four huge boxes or shrines.
42
Each shrine was made from heavy wood and covered with golden pictures of Egyptian gods.
43
The King's Sarcophagus Carter's team discovered a beautifully painted box called a sarcophagus, carved from a single piece of stone.
44
Inside it were three mummy-shaped coffins, one inside the other.
45
In the last coffin, made of solid gold, lay the body of the boy king, his head and shoulders covered in a stunning gold mask.

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
