  Nine 1700-year-old brick tombs have been discovered in northwest China's Xinjiang.Experts say that they can provide valuable clues for the research of exchanges between the central Chinese government at that time and faraway Western Regions

  It is the first time ancient tombs with typical characteristics of China's main Han nationality have been found in the Uygur ethnic region(自治區(qū))

  Archaeologists from Beijing, Shanxi and Xinjiang concluded that the tombs were built between the middle and late third century and fourth century.

  The tombs were unearthed during the construction of a road earlier this year in Kuqa county,740 km from Xinjiang's capital Urumqi and part of the ancient Qiuci State.Qiuci State, which existed between the second century BC and 860 AD, was one of the 36 states in the Western Regions.

  The tombs would help archaeologists with research into the political, economic and cultural exchanges between the Central Plains government and states in the west, and on the cultural influence of the Central Plains on the Western Regions.

  Archaeologists from the Xinjiang institute have dug nine tombs since August 22, finding bodies of more than 30 people, some ancient coins and more than 60 pottery(陶器)jars.It is thought there are another three tombs to be dug.

  The people buried in the tombs were probably either people from the western regions deeply influenced by the Han culture or the Han residents(居民)in the region.

  Are you a man or a mouse? When people ask this question they want to know if you think you are a brave person or a coward(膽小鬼).But you will never really know the answer to that question until you are tested in real life.Some people think they are brave, but when they come face to face with real danger, they act like cowards.Other people think of themselves as cowardly, but when they meet danger, they act like heroes.

  Lenny Sputnik had always thought of himself as a nervous person.He got worried before examinations.He worried about his job and his health.All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy.Then, on 15th January 1982, a plane crashed into the Potomac River in Washington.Lenny went to the river to see what was happening.Then he saw a woman in the ice-cold water.Suddenly Lenny did not feel afraid.He kept very calm and did a very courageous thing.He jumped into the Potomac, swam to the woman, and kept her head above the water.Seventy-eight people died that day.Thanks to Lenny Sputnik, it was not seventy-nine.

  When you are in a very dangerous situation and feel afraid, the body automatically produces a chemical in the blood.This chemical is called adrenalin.With adrenalin in the blood system, you actually feel stronger and are ready to fight or run away.However, when you are completely terrified, the body can produce too much adrenalin.When this happens, the muscles become very hard and you find that you cannot move at all.You are then disabled with fear.That is why, when we are very frightened, we sometimes say that we are ‘petrified’.This word comes from the Greek word ‘peters’ which means ‘stone’.We are so frightened we have become like stone.
