Last week’s topic was ‘‘A Messenger from the Past.’’In my opinion,this text was the most interesting one for me because there are several different informations in the text, and also this topic affects really at improvement of science.First of all, while a couple of German were hiking in the Italian Tyrol near the Austrian border,they found a corpse who died in the past
YanıtlaSilIn fact, this relic which stayed from past is the most important archeological finds because if this relic can examine exacly ,scientist can say about what did happen in the past.For example, the corpse in the text was examine by some of the scientist,they can give information like when did the copse die, how many years was the corpse under the soil…etc,but these corpse had been hided suitable enviroment like under the glacier to research.I can say that being a researcher is the most enjoyable one among the kind of jobs because you can encounter everytime new things.Therefore,if I didn’t want to be a pilot,I would want to be researcher like German couple

YanıtlaSilWe read the passage about The Ice Man last week.Old people use to way of hunting for finding foods.The Ice Man lived 4000 years ago.The Ice Man was discovered a German couple hiking at 10,500 feet
YanıtlaSilin the Italian Tyrol near the Austrian Border.He was found with his equipment.Most probably,he was a hunter.I believe that The Ice Man brough lots of informaton from the past.Unfortunately,scientists can't analyse him with X-RAY because X-RAY destroys his skin.Therefore,his cause of death is not certain.He is exhibited at the National History Museum in London.
Last week, we read a text about the Ice Man.We learned a lot of information about the Ice Man.For instance,researches who are studied on his corpse think that he died roughly 4,000 years ago and when he was found by German couple, he had some equipments,such as knife,quiver,arrows so they thought that he was a hunter.In addition,they believe that he didn't died because of illnesses and when he hunted, he battled with four other hunters,but he lost and he died.I think, this passage really extraordinary because I heve never heard like this search before I read it.Moreover,I believe that his corpse is useful for learning a messenger from the past.Finally, I wish I could learn what happened when he died.Probably, it's a mystery for me.
YanıtlaSilLast week we read an interesting text. It had some mysteries, so it attracted to me.First of all, when I read the article, I thought it was about subject not people, but I learned it was about Ice Man who died 4000 years ago. When I learned it, I was surprised because his body hadn’t damaged for years. I wonder how it could be possible. I think it was very interesting and also some things are unknown about him such as his nationality, his language … etc and also we don’t know how he died. First of all I thought he was attacked by animals, but he had many things to protect himself. When the corpse was found, there were some gears with him such as knife, bow, arrow, backpack… etc. Later, I thought maybe he died because of weather condition.I want to learn more information about him, but scientist can’t research on his body because X-Ray damages his body. Now Ice Man is in British Museum. As a result I think this text was exciting. I learned many things and I enjoyed.
YanıtlaSilOur topic was about a messenger from the past last week.I found it that very interesting.When German couple was hiking, they found his corpse.I think, it's so specter but if they didn't find it, we couldn'd get some information about past.His corpse was helped some archeologic studies.I think it's impossible that he has lived for 4,000 years but his body was preserved in ice so German couple could find it.Also,I think he was hunter.Finally, I learn his corpse is British Museum now.
YanıtlaSilThat week, we read and talked about a passage which name is A Messenger from the Past.The passage was so interesting. We learned a lot of information about Ice man.Scientists found an ice man. The Ice Man lived 4000 years ago. His body had been frozen under ice. Scientists tried to find cause of death but they can't be sure anything.Finding that ice man is very important for developments of science. Scientists should study more and more about past of world and humanity.
