阅读强化训练(一) (建议用时：15分钟)  阅读理解 A group of scientists in the Netherlands recently used high－tech methods to examine a secret hidden inside an ancient Chinese statue(雕像). It was sent to the Drents Museum in the northeastern Netherlands as part of an exhibit. But while working on the statue, researchers took the chance to study the body of a Buddhist monk(佛僧) inside it. The statue was shipped to a medical center for CT scans, which are tests that produce X－ray pictures. Scientists used the technology to find out the statue’s hidden secrets. The body of the monk was sitting on top of a roll of cloth marked with Chinese characters(字). The cloth shows that the monk was named Liu Quan and lived around the year 1100. “On the outside, it looked like a large statue of Buddha，” said Vincent van Vilsteren from the Drents Museum. “What flabbergasted me was that, on the inside, it was the mummy(干尸) of a Buddhist monk. Later we learned that for the first 200 years, the mummy was probably placed in a Buddhist temple. Only in the 14th century did they do all the work to move it into a nice statue.” Researchers at the Drents Museum still have a lot of questions about the mummy. It is believed to be the only Chinese Buddhist mummy that has been studied outside Asia. Scientists hope that DNA testing on the mummy will help them learn more about it. Further research may dig up more information about the monk in the months to come. 【解题导语】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了一尊内藏高僧干尸的古佛像。 1．What is special about the statue? A．Something unusual is in it.
