单元质量检测(一)(时间:100分钟满分:120分本卷共4页)Ⅰ.阅读理解(30分)AAre the British people Europeans?This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians, who tend to think of all white men as Europeans. But the British, when they are in Britain, do not regard themselves as Europeans. The Europeans, to them, are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of the English Channel, who have never learnt how to speak English. Europe is “the Continent”:a place full of interest for British tourists, but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved. Thus, although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe, yet the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very, very insular (孤立的). They feel, and in many ways are, different from the rest of Europe and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them, or even to understand them, in time of need.Where did the British people come from?This is an extraordinary interesting question, since they are a mixture of many different races,and all these races invaded Britain at various times from Europe. Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century B.C., but there had been at least three invasions before that. The first of these was by a dark­haired Mediterranean race called the Iberians. The other two were by Celtic tribes: first the Gaels, whose descendants are the modern Scots and Irish, some of whom still speak the Gaelic language;and second the Britons, who gave their name to the whole island of Britain. These were the people whom the Romans conquered. The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of their civilization, but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers, so the British race survived until the overthrow of the Roman Empire by the“barbarians”, i.e. the numerous Germanic tribes which overran the whole of Western Europe.1.The purpose of the passage is to________.A.talk about EuropeansB.discuss the origin of British peopleC.argue for the superiority of British peopleD.compare the Europeans with Africans and Asians2.It can be known from the passage that________.A.most people think white people are EuropeansB.there are many Africans and Asians living in EuropeC.white men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and AsiansD.the British people think of themselves as Europeans3.Why do the British people feel very insular?A.They are different from those people in the continent.B.They sometimes fail to support the continental countries in time of need.C.They are separated geographically from the continent.D.They are considered very difficult to understand.4.Which of the following might be discussed after this passage?A.The Germanic tribes which invaded Britain.B.The civilization the Romans gave Britain.C.The Romans who did not settle in Britain.D.The survival of the British people in the first century B.C.BOnce Napoleon stayed in a small inn. The next morning, he went to thank the innkeeper.“You have served me well, innkeeper,” said Napoleon. “I wish to reward you. Tell me what you want.”“Sir, we want nothing,” said the innkeeper. “But will you tell us something?”“What is it?” Napoleon asked.“We have heard a story,” said the innkeeper, “that once during the war, a small village was taken by the Russians. You happened to be in the village. You hid while they looked for you. Will you tell us how you felt when they were looking for you?” Napoleon looked very angry. He called in two of his soldiers. Then he pointed to the door. The soldiers took the innkeeper and his wife out into the yard.At the end of the yard was a wall. The innkeeper and his wife were led to the wall. The soldiers tied the hands of the innkeeper and his wife. Napoleon watched, saying nothing.“Please, sir.” begged the innkeeper, “Don't kill us! We meant nothing!” The soldiers moved back. The innkeeper saw them raising their guns. Then Napoleon called: “Ready! Aim!” The wife screamed.“Stop!” said Napoleon. He went to the innkeeper, “Now, you know the answer to the question you asked me just now, don't you?”5.Why did the innkeeper ask Napoleon to tell him how Napoleon felt when he was beinglooked for?A.He wanted to know the difference between a general and an ordinary person.B.He looked down upon Napoleon, for he thought a great man shouldn't be defeated.C.He showed his sympathy (同情) to Napoleon in time of danger.D.He was interested in others' failure, especially Napoleon's.6.Why did Napoleon order his men to tie the couple?A.Because he wanted to teach the innkeeper a good lesson for bothering him.B.Because he wanted to kill the couple to get rid of his anger.C.Because he wanted to show that he was so admiring a general that nobody could upset him.D.Because he wanted to made the innkeeper know that a general like him had the same feeling as the ordinary people in face of danger.7.Which is the best title of the text?A.Napoleon's TrickB.Napoleon and an InnkeeperC.Napoleon's AngerD.Napoleon's RideCSon's HelpMr. Lang worked in a factory. As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday.A few friends of him liked gambling (赌博) and he learned it soon. So he was interested in it and hardly forgot anything except gambling. He lost all his money and later he began to sell the television, watches and so on. His wife told him not to do it but he didn't listen to her. She had to tell the police. He and his friends were punished for it. And he was hardly sent away. After he came out of lockup (拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him.It was New Year's Day. Mr. Lang didn't go to work. He felt lonely and wanted to gamble again. He called his friends and they came soon. But they were afraid the police would come. He told his five­year­old son to go to find out if there were the policemen outside. They waited for a long time and didn't think the police would come and began to gamble. Suddenly opened the door and in came a few policemen.“I saw there weren't any policemen outside, daddy,” said the boy, “so I went tothe crossing and asked some to come.”8.Mr. Lang was paid much because ________.A.he was a driverB.he worked in a factoryC.he had a lot of work to doD.he had worked there for a long time9.Mrs. Lang did all housework because ________.A.she couldn't find any workB.she thought her husband was tiredC.her husband spent all time in gamblingD.she wouldn't stop her husband gambling10.________, so he was put into lockup.A.Mr. Lang often gambledB.Mr. Lang was late for workC.Mr. Lang didn't help his wife at homeD.Mr. Lang wasn't polite to the police11.The woman had to leave Mr. Lang because ________.A.he didn't love her any longerB.he wouldn't stop gamblingC.he had been put into lockupD.he was hardly sent away by the factoryDComputers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future compu­ters will be used in lots of everyday life. It is thought that we won't have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers. The Internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food. Most telephone calls will be made by computers, too.Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating (交际). Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.Let's look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not readbooks made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won't need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized (计算机化) books will be used more and more.Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers won't change these two habits.12.In Paragraph 1 it is thought people will use computers for ________.A.playing games, shopping and making telephone callsB.making telephone calls, having meals and seeing filmsC.seeing films, buying food, and going for holidaysD.playing games, making telephone calls and seeing the doctor13.Which reason for using computerized books is NOT said in the passage?A.Computerized books won't be very expensive.B.Computers can keep many different books in them.C.We won't have lots of pages.D.We won't need any paper.14.Paragraph 4 tells ________.A.about the old and new ways of shopping and comm­unicatingB.if the Internet will change our habitsC.about computerized booksD.about future uses of computers15.The title for this passage is ________.A.Computers will Replace Shops and BooksB.Computers Are the FutureC.Computers will Do Everything for ManD.How Computers Change Our HabitsⅡ.任务型阅读(满分10分)Linguistic (语言学的) PuzzlesHow did the language begin? What was the world's first language? Do all languages come from one original language? 16.________In the 4th century BC, the Greek historian Herodotus wrote this account: Psamtik Ⅰ, an Egyptian King, wanted to find out what the oldest language in the world was.17.________ He told his servant to find two newborn babies. When the servant had found them, the king gave them to a shepherd (牧羊人) and said, “Keep these babies with the goats. Take care of them, but do not talk to them. Listen to any words that they say.” The king wanted to find out what language the children would speak if they were left alone. He said: “The first words they speak will come from the original language of the world.”18.________ He told the king, who asked his scholars about this word. They told him that the Phrygians, who lived in an area which is now Turkey, called bread “becos”. The king said. “Then Phrygian is the oldest language.” Today we know that the king's conclusion was wrong. We don't know why the children said “becos”.19.________ Scholars discovered that many European and southern Asian languages belonged to the same “family” and that they started from the same parent language, Proto Indo European. Linguists think that it had split into several different languages, including Greek and Sanskrit, between 2,000 and 1,000 BC. Other languages, such as English and Spanish, developed from later splits.20.________ Two questions that interest linguists are: How does language change? Why does language change?

2017-2018年高中英语北师大版必修1文档:Unit3课时跟踪练(一)Warm-up&Lesson1—Pre-reading含答案

课时跟踪练(一) Warm-up & Lesson 1 — Pre-readingⅠ.阅读理解AThe Dragon Boat Festival in ChinaChinese culture has many, many festivals commemorating (纪念) some unusual events. The Dragon Boat Festival is one such festival. The main thing to do on this day is to eat zongzi, the sticky rice dumpling.In some places, people race boats that are colourfullydecorated with dragon designs, but I have never seen such a race. I have, however, eaten lots of zongzi. You can buy them or eathomemade ones. They are commonly eaten as a snack food. The rice may be white, and it may have some red bean paste inside. Sometimes the rice is brown from a sauce and inside is a small chunk (块) of ham. In any case, each one is wrapped in reed leaves and steamed, I suppose, for a long time. At first, I thought they were rather tasteless, but I have developed a taste for them now, and I like to eat them, though once a year is enough.The origin of zongzi is as strange as the food itself. There was a Chinese poet and official (Chinese officials in old times were always poets) named Qu Yuan. He was an official in the Kingdom of Chu. China has a tradition of ministers (大臣) who give advice to the king, and Qu Yuan was such a minister. Qu Yuan advised the king of Chu to prepare for war because the state of Qin was ready to destroy his state. But the king thought he was safe since the emperor of Qin seemed to be more interested in other weaker states. But, finally, Qin did attack Chu, and the Chu Kingdom was defeated.Qu Yuan was so sad about this that he killed himself by jumping into the Miluo River. His countrymen, on learning of this, rushed to the scene in small boats and tried to find his body. They failed to find it, so they made the dumplings wrapped in reed leaves and threw them into the river so the fish would eat the dumplings and not Qu Yuan’s body. That day was the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Later, it became a tradition to eat zongzi and to hold dragon boat races on that day every year.语篇解读:本文介绍了粽子以及端午节,从而让读者了解粽子以及端午节的历史。

AA great yellow dust cloud covered the Chinese capital Wednesday, cutting visibility to less than 100 meters, making the worst sandstorm in recent years.Few pedestrians could be seen in the streets, but the number of traffic policemen was increased, ensuring the expressways and airport remained in operation.Wang Hongsheng, a senior citizen living in Beijing for more than 60 years, said such weather had se ldom been seen in the city in recent years. “I remember seeing such sandstorms in the old days.”In the southern part of the city, the sky was darkened by a fog of sand, forcing vehicles and shops to turn on their lights.The municipal government and information service departments have taken emergency measures to deal with the sandstorm.Large advertising hoardings in the city were also being monitored against the wind and sand. A policeman on the Chang'an Street said that the number of vehicles and their speeds had decreased. No serious accidents have yet been reported.Although the meteorological department had forecast the sandstorm on Tuesday and warned citizens to prepare for it, many people were shocked by the yellow sky this morning.Before dawn this morning, the cold air brought some rainfall to Beijing. The rain has helped to control local dust, but failed to stop the strong sandstorm, said experts.Experts also warned citizens to take care if going out in the weather.1.What could be the best title of the passage?A.Sandstorm Hit BeijingB.The Worst SandstormC.Few Traffic on the StreetD.Weather Seldom Seen2.When sandstorm covered the city, ________.A.the expressways were closed downB.the airports were not in useC.more traffic policemen were on dutyD.more buses appeared3.The shops had to turn on the lights because ________.A.it was nearly nightB.they wanted to direct the wayC.they hoped people to come inD.the sky was made dark by the sandstorm4.From the passage we can infer that ________.A.it is not safe to go out in such weatherB.sandstorm usually comes after the rainC.sandstorm usually follows a fogD.sandstorm is caused by local dustBThis weekly four­day physical activity schedule, which does good to your children, will get kids excited about being active.Tuesday:When the kids get home from school, don't let them go straight to the TV and get settled in. Encourage them to get moving and be off the couch by giving them a pedometer, which is a small device that counts the number of steps a person has taken. Pedometers are the most fun when a parent is also using one because that turns stepping, walking and running into a game to see who can get the most steps each day.Thursday:The kids have done a great job so far this week, but by now they are aching for a little more TV time. Instead of turning on cartoons, let them watch fitness video made just for kids. These programs encourage watchers to get up and hop, dance along to music.Saturday:Get the whole family out of the house together and over to a park. Bring lots of sports equipment and pack a healthy picnic and have a family competitive sports day. Divide kids and adults into groups and play each other at tennis, basketball or soccer. After everyone has played hard for a couple of hours, stop for a picnic and then if they are not too exhausted, go back and play some more.Sunday:Every child loves to play video games and there is no better time to allow kids to play them than on a weekend when no homework is due. But don't let them play a game that forces them to sit down for hours. Dance games with a floor mat (垫子) to help children follow along with the dance moves are popular with the kids.5.Why is a parent asked to use a pedometer while his child is using one?A.The pedometer is of great fun.B.He also needs physical activities.C.He can compete with his child.D.It can help him do housework.6.It is a good idea for your family to have lunch ________ on Saturday according to the author.A.in a park B.on a lakeC.in a restaurant D.at home7.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A.How to make your child keep healthyB.A weekly physical activity plan for kidsC.Physical activities are important to kidsD.A game that will do much good to kidsCThe cherry blossom tree holds a very important place in Japanese culture and tradition. It is the spring season during which the Japanese cherry blossom trees begin to bloom and the festive celebrations start at the same time. The tradition of cherry blossom festivals includes all sorts of entertainment with folk music being one of the most important attractions of the festivals.The traditional Japanese dress known as the kimono (和服) is also brought out on the streets in the form of special kimono shows that become a popular Japanese culture. Beautifully arranged flower displays are also amongst the attractions of the festive seasons. In modern times the cherry blossom festivals are a time when concerts are arranged and there are a lot of musical activities going on in the country. The streets are filled with rides and games of different kinds for the children to enjoy.The spring season, which is the season of celebration, brings back the fresh cherry blossom flowers. The first week of April is perhaps the best time to witness the cherry blossom trees. Although the cherry blossom festival is being celebrated all over the country, Shinjuku Gyoen and Ueno Park are the best renowned for the activities.An interesting part of the Japanese cherry blossom festival season is flower watching. Friends and families gathered around cherry blossom trees with their picnic baskets enjoying the sweet sights and smells that create a wonderful atmosphere around them. Besides, wherever there are cherry blossom trees there will be food stalls. The food items at the stalls will all be made of cherry blossom flowers. You will be able to find some of the most amazing treats to satisfy your taste buds during the peak season at these stalls.8.The first paragraph mainly tells us that ________.A.festivals are held to celebrate the coming of springB.people can enjoy popular music during the festivalsC.cherry blossom festivals stand for Japanese cultureD.cherry blossom trees grow quickly in the spring9.Which of the following would the children like best during the cherry blossom festivals?A.The kimono.B.The flower displays.C.The musical activities.D.The rides and games.10.There are many food stalls near the cherry blossom trees probably because ________.A.the food is made of cherry blossom flowersB.there are many visitors who need food to eatC.the visitors can place their food at the stallsD.they can make the cherry blossom trees more wonderful11.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A.Japanese cherry blossom festivalsB.The history of cherry blossom treesC.Special kimono showsD.Old Japanese culture and traditionDParents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents.“The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14­year­old daughter.“She used to cuddle up with me on the sofa and talk,”said Mark.“Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The pro blem is figuring out which time is which.”Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's in their minds.“In fact, parents are first on the list,”said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers.“This completely changes during the teen years,” Riera explained.“They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down “the_wall_of_silence”, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.12.“The door to his room is always shut”suggests that the son ________.A.is always busy with his studiesB.doesn't want to be disturbedC.keeps himself away from his parentsD.begins to dislike his parents13.What troubles Tina and Mark most is that ________.A.their daughter isn't lovely as beforeB.they can't read their daughter's mind exactlyC.they don't know what to say to their daughterD.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help14.Which of the following best exp lains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?A.Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B.Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.C.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D.Teenagers talk little about their own lives.15.What can be learned from the passage?A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children.B.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.C.Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.D.Parents should try to understand their teenagers.Ⅱ.任务型阅读(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AA long time ago, I was returning from my friend's house. My father parked the car in front of our house. We were opening the gate when suddenly we noticed two puppies run onto our lawn.They were differently colored — one was brown as a cup of coffee with its tail and ear hair dipped in black while the other puppy was a biscuit color with the tip of its tail dipped in white and its forehead had a white spot. And that's why we named them Coffee and Biscuit. Coffee is female and Biscuit is male. In other words they both are twins by a minute. Well, since then they have been with us.Now here comes the shocking part. Coffee has been with us only for one year and 11 months. Guess why? Coffee will soon be littering. At this time it is known that dogs have a sense of temper and start biting people that come near them. And so with a lot of arguing I let my parents take Coffee to a farmer's far away. They tried to assure me that Coffee would have a great time. But Biscuit and I couldn't stand the pain of losing a friend and a sister.After a month, the night before Christmas I made my Christmas wish: I wished that Coffee would come back to me on Santa's sleigh (雪橇). The next morning, I woke up to hear the singing of birds. I jumped out of bed and ran towards the Christmas tree. There were almost 100 presents. We started to open our gifts. In the end there was just one remaining. It was wrapped in a green gift paper and tied with a red ribbon. I opened it up and guessed who jumped out. It was my lost Coffee. She looked absolutely beautiful. My parents explained that she had been scratching the front door last night!1.The story mainly tells ________.A.a lovely and little pet was recoveredB.the author gave up his petC.the pet can bring a whole world of happinessD.people should protect dogs2.The features of the dogs are that ________.A.Coffee's ear is brownB.Biscuit likes to eat biscuits terriblyC.Coffee has a black tailD.Biscuit's forehead has a white spot3.The author had got Coffee lost ________.A.because it often fought with BiscuitB.because his parents disliked a dog at homeC.because it began attacking peopleD.because it get lost when going out4.What can we infer from the passage?A.Coffee will be thrown away after Christmas.B.His parents will never give Coffee away again.C.The author is always worried about Coffee.D.His parents hardly bought presents for the author.B“Children who eat three or more hamburgers a week are more likely to suffer from asthma (哮喘),” researchers say. However, they say that the risk may not be caused by the meat­rich diet itself, but by a lack of fresh fruit and vegetables.The study looked into 50,000 children from 20 countries. Parents were asked about their children's eating habits and whether they had ever suffered from asthma. The effects of their diet seemed to be different depending on where they lived. Fruit and vegetables are more helpful in less affluent parts of the world, while eating lots of fish was more helpful in richer countries. Eating at least three hamburgers a week was linked to a greater risk of asthma, but only in wealthier countries.Dr Gabriele Nagel said different things may cause asthma in different parts of the world. “This gives us more understanding of how asthma affects different people, and its effects in developing as well as developed countries,” she said.High levels of unhealthy fat in hamburgers could increase the risk of asthma. However, the researchers said children who ate several hamburgers a week were likely to have other unhealthy lifestyle habits as well.Researchers said the study helped us understand how asthma and diet are connected.“Previous studies have shown that a diet­rich in fruit and vegetables can help to reduce a child's risk of developing asthma symptoms,” Dr Elaine Vickers said.“Our advice to parents is to make sure that children have a healthy diet and also get plenty of exercise.”5.What can we learn about the study from the passage?A.Fat in hamburgers doesn't increase the risk of asthma.B.Children who like hamburgers don't like exercise.C.Eating three hamburgers a month could cause asthma.D.The parents of fifty thousand children were interviewed.6.What did Dr Elaine Vickers advise parents to do?A.To help children have healthy lifestyle.B.To keep children away from hamburgers.C.To have dinner with children at home.D.To make sure children take exercise as much as possible.7.The passage is mainly about ________.A.asthma affects people in wealthy placesB.hamburgers raise a child's risk of asthmaC.parents can influence children's healthD.more and more children become fatterCThe Key to Your HealthA car needs gas to run and your body also needs food to work for you. Eating the right kind of food is very important. It can help your body grow strong to take care of what you eat.There are four main food groups altogether. The dairy group has food like milk, cheese and sour milk. The other three groups are the meat and fish group, the fruit and vegetable group, and the bread and rice group. Each meal should have at least one food from all four main groups. With all these food together, you will be given enough energy during the day.It is easy to get into bad eating habits. You may eat your breakfast in a hurry toget to school on time. Or you may not have time for a good lunch. It may seem easy to finish your supper with fish and chips all the time. But you will find yourself tired in these days and you can not think quickly.Watching what you eat will help your body remain healthy and strong. It is also good to take some exercise. It will help you eat more if you take a walk or play games in the open air. Having a good eating habit with some exercise is the key to your health.8.Which of the following diets do you think is the best one?A.Milk, bread, cabbages and beef.B.Eggs, tomatoes and chicken.C.Corn, fish, cream and pork.D.Rice, beancurd, apples, fish and chicken.9.Which of the following is a good eating habit?A.Eating fish and chips for supper all the time.B.Finishing your lunch in a very short time.C.Going to school without any breakfast.D.Having at least one food from all four groups in each meal.10.In this passage the writer mainly tells us that ________.A.every person needs food to grow wellB.taking exercise can keep your body strongC.the right kind of food with exercise will keep you healthyD.enough energy helps people think more quickly11.The underlined word “dairy” in the second paragraph means “________”.A.a farm where cows are keptB.the food made out of cows such as milk and butterC.the shop that sells milk and butterD.a place where milk products are madeDDo you know what Street Sense is? It's a newspaper in Washington D.C. about homeless people and problems that affect them. Homeless, or formerly homeless, Washingtonians write many of the articles. The newspaper's business model is based on homeless sellers who sell the newspaper. You can hear them call out “Street Sense for sale!” near subway entrances, lunch places and other areas around the city.The Street Sense newspaper is housed in an office in a Christian church in Washington. Every other Wednesday about fourteen thousand copies are printed. The newspaper expressesthe thoughts and experiences of people who call the streets home.Four staff members work at Street Sense, and two of them are paid. The staff members write the first two pages of the paper. Interns — students working as part of their studies —and volunteers help. Homeless writers provide the rest of the material. This includes poems, stories and essays.Street Sense provides training for the homeless people who want to become part of the sales team. After the training, each student is given ten free copies of Street Sense. Once those are sold, trainees become real salespeople. They buy papers for thirty­five cents each and sell them for a dollar.Lisa Gillespie is the managing editor of Street Sense.

阅读理解(30分)AThe yearly Academy Awards ceremony was once a private affair. Now, because of television,it is very much a public affair. Hundreds of people gather in Hollywood to see the Oscars presented to outstanding (杰出的)actors,and others involved (参与) in the motion picture industry。

Millions more watch on television.It all began on May 16, 1929,when 270 men and women sat down to dinner at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. There was no secret about the winners。

The names of the winners had been known for months. Janet Gaynor,for example, had won as Best Actress。

Douglas Fairbanks presented her with the famous gold statue (塑像). The littlestatue was not then called Oscar. Like a new actor, Oscar was unknown. About six years later, it somehow got that renowned name. A number of explana­tions have been offered for its origin (由来), but nobody knows the true story for certain。
