賴世雄中級(jí)美國英語Speaking from the Grave
B: Can you imagine what it was like 4,000 years ago?
C: That's hard to imagine. But if the mummies could speak, they could certainly tell us a great deal.
B: Well, that, of course, is impossible. But scientists can tell a lot from the things the explorers found.
C: I know. For example, they think the 4000-year-old mummies were Celts.
B: Who were the Celts?
C: They were ancient European people who settled in Britain even before the Romans existed.
B: Wow! That's amazing!
C: So you see, although mummies don't really speak, they are "speaking" from their graves.
B: Stop it! you're giving me the creeps!
