Tonight we are going to talk about an amazing discovery in China that happened around a hundred years ago. In Zhoukoudian, a small village in Beijing, local people were mining limestone in the surrounding hills when they began to find fossils. In 1918, an archaeologist named Johan Gunnar Andersson surveyed the site. mine (在某地)开矿,采矿 lime·stone /ˈlaɪmstəʊn/ 石灰岩 survey测量,勘测,测绘;总体研究;查看,审视,审察 Three years later, he went back to the area with a research assistant. Around that time, two human-like teeth were found in a nearby hill called Dragon Bone Hill, but the significance of this discovery was not fully understood until years later. In 1926, Andersson announced the discovery of the two teeth in Zhoukoudian,believing that they belonged to an unknown species of human beings. With the help of a Swedish prince who was interested in archaeology, Andersson was able to attract the attention of the scientific community and raise money for an international research project. The newly discovered species soon came to be known as “Peking Man”, the oldest known human species at that time. A team of archaeologists and geologists from both China and abroad arrived in Zhoukoudian in 1927 to search for more fossils. In 1929, the Chinese archaeologist Pei Wenzhong made the most important discovery of all: an almost complete skull of Peking Man. Then the year 1936 witnessed another milestone, when the Chinese archaeologist Jia Lanpo discovered three Peking Man skulls within 11 days. These archaeological findings provided historic evidence for human evolution,giving insight into Asian prehistoric human societies and early human history.To acknowledge its significance, the Peking Man Site at Zhoukoudian was added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1987. A2.The host is interviewing an archaeologist about the significance of the Peking Man discovery. Listen to the interview and complete the notes below. Significance of the Peking Man discovery Providing evidence for Darwin’s theory of evolution • It helps prove human beings evolved from other species because Peking Man was so similar to (1) ______________ that they must be related. re·lated /rɪˈleɪtɪd/ 属同一家族的；有亲属关系的 modern humans Giving insight into prehistoric human societies • Appearance of Peking Man  Males were about (2) ____ centimetres tall and females about 143 centimetres tall.  Peking Man had a thicker skull, a lower and much larger forehead, bigger teeth and a smaller (3) _____________. • Use of stone tools  Over (4) _______ stone tools have been found in Zhoukoudian. 156 brain capacity 100,000  Stone tools served different purposes, such as removing meat from bones and (5) ____________________. • Use of fire  Peking Man was the first to use fire in (6) _____.  Peking Man could also preserve fire by using stones or dirt to protect the fire from dying out. serve对…有用；能满足…的需要 die out灭绝；消失 cutting through bones Asia Tapescript Journalist: With me now is archaeologist Michael Jacobs, who will tell us more about Peking Man. Why is this discovery so important, Michael? Michael: The Peking Man fossils provide evidence for Darwin’s theory of evolution. Journalist: Could you tell us more? Michael: Sure. These fossils show that Peking Man was so similar to modern humans that they must be related. This helps prove that human beings evolved from other species. Journalist: So did Peking Man look like us? Michael: Well, yes and no. The height of Peking Man was somewhat close to that of men and women today: males were about 156 centimetres tall and females about 143 centimetres tall. However, Peking Man’s head structures differed greatly from ours. Peking Man had a thicker skull, a lower and much larger forehead, bigger teeth, and a smaller brain capacity. Journalist: Interesting! What else have we learnt from this amazing discovery? Michael: It was the first major discovery of prehistoric human societies in China.By studying the site where the bones were found, scientists have learnt that Peking Man could use a wide variety of stone tools. Over 100,000 stone tools have been found in Zhoukoudian, which were used for different purposes. For example, there were fine tools for removing meat from bones, as well as bigger tools for cutting through bones. Journalist: Could Peking Man use fire? Michael: Yes. He could use fire, which was a remarkable achievement. In fact,Peking Man was the first to use fire in Asia. Peking Man could also preserve fire. He used stones or dirt to protect the fire from dying out. Journalist: We can get insight into prehistoric human societies from the Peking Man discovery. That’s fascinating. Thank you! A3. In pairs, role-play a conversation between a journalist and an archaeologist about the discovery of Peking Man. Use the example below to help you and pay attention to the expressions in bold. Switch roles after you finish. A: Could you tell me first how Peking Man was discovered? B: Sure. After people in Zhoukoudian noticed there were fossilized bones in the surrounding hills, archaeologists began searching the area for more fossils. fos·sil·ize  /ˈfɒsəlaɪz/ ( Bre also -ise)(使)变成化石,石化;(使人或物)僵化 Two human-like teeth were found around that time, but it was only years later that scientists realized how significant these fossils were.The most important discovery was made by a Chinese archaeologist named Pei Wenzhong. In 1929, he found an almost complete Peking Man skull. A: That’s incredible! But why was the Peking Man discovery so important? What have scientists learnt from studying the fossils from Zhoukoudian? B: Peking Man was very similar to modern humans, and this was evidence that humans had evolved from other species. In other words, Darwin was right! Peking Man was also quite clever. He could make a wide variety of stone tools, and there’s strong evidence that he had learnt how to control fire. strong 难以辩驳的；确凿的 A: So Peking Man was a major breakthrough in the study of human evolution. Now I see it is a really important discovery! B: Absolutely! I’m extremely proud that China has been able to contribute so much to our understanding of human evolution. Peking Man is the first in a long line of fossil discoveries in China that shed light on how human beings evolved. 北京人是众多在中国发现的化石中的第一位，这些化石为我们揭示了人类的进化历程。 line按时间顺序排列的人（或物、事件）；家系；家族 cast/shed/throw light on sth使（问题等）较容易理解 B.
