Americans, according to a new theory.
If proved by DNA evidence, the theory will break long established beliefs about the
southerly migration of people who entered America across the Bering Strait, found it
empty and occupied it.
On this theory rests the belief of Native Americans to have been the first true
Americans. They would be classified to the ranks of escapee, beaten to the New World by
Aboriginals (土著人) in boats.
To a European, this may seem like an academic argument, but to Americans it is a
philosophical question about identity, Silvia Gonzales, of Liverpool University said.
Her claims are based on skeletons found in the California Peninsula of Mexico that
have skulls quite unlike the broad Mongolian features of Native Americans. These narrow-
skulled people have more in common with southern Asians, Aboriginal Australians and people
of the South Pacific Region.
The bones, stored at the National Museum of Anthropology (人类学) in Mexico City,
have been carbon-dated and one is 12,700 years old, which places it several thousand
years before the arrival of people from the North. "We think there were several migration
waves into the Americas at different times by different human groups," Dr. Gonzales said.
"The timing, route and point of origin of the first colonization of the Americas remains
a most contentious topic in human evolution."
But comparisons based on skull shape are not considered conclusive by anthropologists,
so a team of Mexican and British scientists, backed by the Natural Environment Research
Council, has also attempted to take out DNA from the bones. Dr. Gonzales declined yesterday
to say exactly what the results were, as they need to be checked, but indicated that they
were consistent (一致) with an Australian origin.
B. Australia
C. South Pacific
D. South Asia
B. the narrow skull shape
C. different features of Aboriginal Australians
D. the same features of Native Americans
B. difficult to solve
C. well-known to all
D. likely to cause argument
B. DNA tests have proved the fact that the first Native Americans came from Australian.
C. Scientists are still not sure about the origin of the Native Americans.
D. People began to enter America across the Bering Strait about 12,700 years ago.
world and the finest example of the late style of Indian architecture (建筑). It is at Agra
in northern India. It lies beside the River Jumna in the middle of gardens with quiet pools.
The Taj Mahal was built by the Mogul emperor (皇帝) Shah Jehan, who ruled India in
the seventeenth century. It is in memory of his favorite wife, Arjumand Banu Bagam, known
as Mumtaz Mahal, who died in 1631. The building, which was completed between 1632 and
1638, was designed by a local Muslim architect (建筑师), Ustad Ahmad Lahori. The whole
building, with gardens and gateway structures, was completed in 1643. The Taj Mahal stands
at one end of the garden tomb with marble (大理石) path. The room is softly lighted by the
light that passes through double screens of carved marble set high in the walls. The
building now is kept in good condition.
The Taj Mahal took 22 years to build. Shah Jehan planned a similar building, but in
black instead of white, to lie on the other side of the river. But before it could be
built, Shah Jehan was imprisoned (监禁) by his son and buried next to his wife in the
Taj Mahal.
