The mummy of an Egyptian woman who died in 800 B.C.has just had an operation. The mummy is that of Shepenmut who was once a singer in the Temple of Thebes. As there were strange marks on the X-ray plates taken of the mummy, doctors have been trying to find out whether the woman died of a rare disease. The only way to do this was to operate. The operation, which lasted for over four hours, proved to be very difficult because of the hard resin which covered the skin. The doctors removed a section of the mummy and sent it to a laboratory. They also found something which the X-ray plates did not show: a small wax figure of the god Duamutef. This god which has the headof a cow was normally placed inside a mummy. The doctors have not yet decidedhow the woman died. They feared that the mummy would fall to pieces when theycut it open, but fortunately this has not happened. The mummy successfullysurvived the operation.

任务配置：L0 +L4
笔记：
1.知识点
（1）The mummy is that of Shepenmut…这是……赛潘姆特的木乃伊。
that用以指代前面的 the mummy，以避免重复。在指代特指的事物时，尤其是在比较状语从句中，常用that和those指代前面提到的事物：
The cost of living here is lower than that in London.这里的生活费用比伦敦的要低。
课文中使用that of结构的原因之一是 Shepenmut需要后面跟一个补充说明她身份的关系从句。
（2）X-ray plates 【医】X线【硬】片
（3）die of,死于……，因……而死(后面跟名词)。
His grandfather died of a bad cold/died of hunger
（4）The operation, which lasted for over four hours, proved to be very
difficult…手术持续了4个多小时，非常难做……
①last表示“持续”、“延续”时为不及物动词，后面通常跟一个表示时间的名词/短语，for可有可无：
The war between the two countries lasted (for) over three years/until 1453.
②prove表示“证明”、“证实”，后面可以跟从句、形容词、名词、不定式等：
（5）fall to pieces,散掉，成为碎片(也可以说go to pieces)
（6）The mummy successfully survived the operation. 这具木乃伊成功地经受了这次手术。
survive表示“经历(灾难等)之后还活着”：
Only ayoung woman and her two baby daughters survived the plane crash.
（7）resin 树脂
（8）wax figure 蜡像
练习感悟：
survive后面直接加名词就能表达经历灾难以后活着，不用再加什么介词了。以前总觉得漏了个from。
几个单词连读的话，还是会听不出来，或者，这不是听出来的，而是练习长了以后自己判断出来的？
