I visited Elba last June joining Mary ＇and John on a bicycling vacation They made the arrangements for the car hotel and bicycles I studied the history of the island which of course particularly features Napoleon
Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne(王权)as Emperor of France in 1814 Far from being a prison island Elba is beautiful with towering mountains thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches
It is also an island filled with treasure Very early on this island locals discovered rich deposits of iron Soon outsiders too discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it Dorians had moved in by the tenth century BC and were mining the island The Romans ruled next obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea From the twelfth century until the nineteenth the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802 Then came Napoleon the new ruler of Elba
I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio The Emperor lived with his court and his mother but his wife Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father Emperor of Austria She lived safely there and showed little interest in zisiting her husband in his minikingdom Apparently Napoleon wasn＇t troubled mu＇ h by this He was too busy riding
everywhere on horseback building roads modernizing agriculture and above all sharpening his
tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape
In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled(流放)conqueror＇s anxious thoughts He might gaze over where I stood now toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort the sandy bay and across it the green mountains of the Tuscan coast Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne
28 What did the author do for the visit to Elba
A He did research on its past B He arranged transportation
C He planned bicycling routes D He booked accommodation
29 Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text
A Napoleon and his army B Etruscans and other Greeks C Dorians D Romans
30 What does the underlined word ensconced probably mean
A Settled B Locked C Cured D Controlled
31 What came to the author＇s mind during his visit to Napoleon＇s gardens
A Beautiful views on Elba B Terrible living conditions on Elba
C Napoleon＇s ambition to regain power D Hardship of Napoleon＇s return to France
D
DNA analysis has revealed family relationships between more than 10 generations of Stone Age people at megalithic(巨石)tombs in Ireland and Sweden
The evidence suggests that megaliths prehistoric large stone structures sometimes acted as graves for family groups in northwestern Europe thousands of years ago The latest findings throw new light on the origins and social structure of the groups that built megaliths in this regiona history that has long been hidden in mystery
For their study the international team of researchers analyzed the genomesthe complete set of genetic material in a cellof 24 Stone Age individuals from five megalithic burial sites in Ireland Scotland and Gotland a large Swedish island in the Baltic Sea
This analysis showed that many of the individuals buried at each megalith who all lived between 3800 BC and 2600 BC according to radiocarbondating of their remains were closely related via family ties
The results also showed that the individuals buried at the megaliths were related to Neolithic farmers in northern and western Europe but genetically distinct from other huntergatherers This was particularly noticeable at the Ansarve site on the island of Gotland
The people buried in the Ansarve tomb are remarkably different on a genetic level compared to the individuals dug out from huntergather contexts showing that the burial tradition in this megalithic tomb which lasted for over 700 years was performed by distinct groups with roots in the European Neolithic expansion Magdalena Fraser cofirst author from Uppsala University said in the statement
32 What＇s the significance of the new findings
A It reveals the family ties between people in Ireland and Sweden
B It implies that many people buried in the tombs were closely related
C It indicates the longhidden mystery concerning DNA analysis
D It suggests that the megaliths became tombs thousands of years ago
33 How did the researchers reach their findings
A By interviewing individuals B By travelling to different regions
C By analyzing genes D By studying the burial sites
