The most significant discovery, Shen said, is that the relics were colorfully 50 and have been kept in good condition.
Experts expected the colors on some of the relics to have faded over the centuries, and they were
51 to see how good a condition they were in, said Shen.
The finds also included a shield(盾) that was used by soldiers in the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC), with red, green and white patterns on it. The shield is a(n) 52 discovery because no shields had been found before in any of the three pits.
The ancient Terracotta Army was 53 in 1974 by a farmer who was digging a well. In 1987, it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site(联合国教科文组织世界遗产).

A recent study found that chewing food for longer might help people lose weight, because it could greatly reduce the amount of calories curing a meal.
Scientists at Harbin Medical University in China studied 16 slim men and 14 obese(肥胖的) men in their late teens or twenties. They carried out two experiments.
In the first experiment, the scientists wanted to see if the obese men chewed their food differently from the slim men. Each volunteer was given a pie. A secret camera was used to see how many times they chewed before swallowing. The results found that, although the obese men chewed at the same speed as the slim ones, they swallowed their food much more q uickly.
In the second experiment, both groups were given another pie to chew 15 times before swallowing, and then they were asked to chew 40 times before swallowing.
Scientists found that when volunteers chewed for longer they took in 11.9 per cent fewer calories, no matter whether they were slim or obese.
They explained, “When you eat your food in a hurry, you don’t realize you’re eating so much. But chewing for longer makes you more likely to notice the taste, smell and texture(质地) of the food. And it also makes you more aware of what and how much you’re eating. As a result, you’re less likely to feel hungry again.”

Most teachers agree that the first lesson of a teacher is often unforgettable. I still remember getting into the class with the feelings of a beginner teacher: nervous, careful, excited, etc. The s 81 I started my first lesson in was well-known to hold the most naughty students in the city. With this in m 82 , I was more nervous than I should be. But I tried my best not to show it out and went into the class. The first thing I did was taking a look at the whole class. My eyes s 83 on a big black student. He was sitting in the back row of the class with no one in front of him. His body was much larger than mine. I thought it would be better to l 84 that boy untouchable. As soon as I started my lesson writing on the blackboard, I heard some noise from the back. I f 85 the students to find out who did it, but the class looked very quiet. I went on writing and the noise went on. Then I stopped my lesson to solve this problem because I believed that if I lost c ontrol of the class from the beginning I wouldn’t be able to get it b 86 . I thought the big boy made the noise. To my surprise, a small boy was the source ( 根源) of trouble. Days went on and I discovered that the big boy was good and quiet and the great source of trouble came from a group of small- sized students who became under control after some weeks. From then on, I realized that judging by appearance can often be w 87 , not only with students!
D.Answer the questions
Marvin left home feeling happy. He was listening to his favourite music on his MP3 player and he was wearing his new trainers. “And I’ve got a swimming class later. I love swimming. Today is going to be a good day,” he thought.
He danced along the street to the music.
“Hey, Marilyn!”
Tyson’s voice cut through Marvin’s happiness like a knife. Marvin knew it was Tyson because his voice
was very loud and because he always called Marvin by a girl’s name. Tyson thought this was funny.
“What’s wrong with you, Marilyn?”
Marvin stopped his little dance and started to walk quickly towards school.
Tyson followed him. “Hey, Marilyn. I’m talking to you,” Tyson said behind him.
Tyson pushed his finger into Marvin’s back. Marvin turned to look at him. Tyson was smiling but it wasn’t a nice smile.
“Didn’t you hear me, Marilyn?”
“I thought you were talking to somebody else. My name’s Marvin,” he replied. “And anyway, I was listening to my music.”
Tyson took Marvin’s MP3 player from him and listened. “What’s that? Classical music?” he laughed.
Marvin looked down at his feet and tried to think of something to say. Tyson looked down at the same time.
“Ah,” he said. “Were you dancing in your little new trainers?”
Marvin found his voice. “I wasn’t dancing. I was doing my fighting practice.”
“Little Marilyn can fight?” Tyson laughed in Marvin’s face. “Don’t talk to me about fighting. See this scar?”
He showed Marvin his arm. It had a big long line on it with lots of smaller lines across it.
“Yes,” said Marvin. He knew what Tyson was going to say next.
“I got this when I stopped five robbers from robbing a bank. I’m not afraid of anyone or anything.”
“You said there were three robbers last time,” Marvin said. He quickly took his MP3 player back from Tyson and started to run away.
“Be carefully today, fighting boy,” Tyson shouted. “I’ll be right behind you.”
Marvin was so angry that he had stomach ache. Tyson always made him feel bad. And every time that Tyson was horrible to Marvin, Marvin’s stomach hurt.
