31、onn said.People have long puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks.And theres no obvious answer.On average，each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck.The Egyptians somehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometre away.The m
32、ost popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths.Many scientists suspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板).Then they would have dragged them along paths.To make the work easier，workers may have lubricated the paths either with wet clay or with the fat f
33、rom cattle.Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand.Evidence from the sand supports this idea.Researchers found small amounts of fat，as well as a large amount of stone and the remains of paths.However，physicist Joseph West thinks there might have bee
34、n a simpler way，who led the new study.West said，“I was inspired while watching a television programme showing how sleds might have helped with pyramid construction.I thought，Why dont they just try rolling the things？”A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to it
35、s sides，he realised.That，he notes，should make a block of stone“a lot easier to roll than a square”So he tried it.He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30kilogram stone block.That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel.Then they placed the block on the ground.They wrap
36、ped one end of a rope around the block and pulled.The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths.They calculated that rolling the block required about as much force as moving it along a slippery(滑的)path.West hasnt tested his idea on larger blocks，but he thinks
37、rolling has clear advantages over sliding.At least，workers wouldnt have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.【语篇解读】本文讲述的是对金字塔石块运输方式的研究。大多数研究人员认为古埃及人可能是把石块放在滑板上滑至目的地。现在还有人认为古埃及人还有可能是在巨石四周捆绑木棒，然后将石块滚至目的地。12Its widely believed that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site by A

43、6 This is more of a responsibility and a source of pressure. 17 In ancient times，Laoting clay figurines were mainly childrens toys made by countryside artists.After the founding of the Peoples Republic of China in 1949，there were several workshops in villages in Laoting County and the production rea

69、with a higher IQ are more likely to live a longer life.Researchers analysed data from the Scottish Mental Surveysin which almost every 11yearold in Scotland was given the same IQ test on the same day in 1932and tracked the participants lives up to when they passed away.Even when factors such as econ
70、omic status and employment level were accounted for，the smarter kids ended up living longer than those with lower IQs.These results relate to several previous studies that have found a link between IQ and mortality(死亡率)when other factors were left out.We dont yet understand why this is the case，but
71、there are some interesting hypotheses(假设)：one is that intelligent people are more likely to strap themselves(系上安全带)in while driving，choose to eat a healthy diet，avoid smoking，and exercise more often.Whalley and Deary found that those with a higher IQ were more likely to quit smoking after its negati
