15、? Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypts most famous king was probably murdered. But a recent scientific study claims to have found a different answer to this more than 3,300-year-old mystery. A team of researchers now say that King Tut, the boy ruler, died of complications

16、 (并发症) from a broken leg.Tuts full name was Tutankhamun. He was just 9 years old when he became the ruler of Egypt in 1333 BC His treasure-filled tomb was discovered almost a century ago. It was filled with royal riches, including a solid-gold coffin, a gold mask, and piles of jewelry.Unfortunately

17、Tut died at the age of 19. Many experts have thought that Tut was killed by one of his advisers, named Ay, who wanted to be king. But thanks to a major modern science project, it seems Ay is innocent.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tuts death by using the tools of science, including

18、 DNA tests and electronic scans of his mummy (木乃伊). Scientist Carsten Pusch carried out the tests on Tut for the new study. He thinks a broken leg led to the young kings death. More than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tuts tomb. This supports the teams findings. But how could a person die fro

19、m a simple broken leg?Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tuts body that shows he had malaria, a disease carried by mosquitoes. Malaria seriously weakens the immune system (免疫系统).Pusch and his fellow researchers believe the malaria and the bone disease together caused the kings fracture (骨折) to become

20、deadly. Finally, the young king was just too weak to recover. So effects of the disease combined with the bad luck of a broken bone not a jealous adviser are likely the real causes of King Tuts death.8It has long been believed by historians and scientists that _.AKing Tut was the youngest ruler in t

26、y (保险单) before you leave. Backpacker policies are specially designed to meet your needs, by offering a high level of cover for a long time of travel.
