The first emperor of China, Qin Shihuang, accomplished a huge amount during his rule. Between 221 and 210 B.C., he started the construction of the Great Wall. He built a large network of roads. He introduced a new writing system, currency(货币), and a set of measurement. The emperor also ordered the construction of a huge army of life-sized terracotta soldiers. These, he hoped, would protect his tomb after his death.
The soldiers in Xi’ an’s Emperor Qinshihuang’s Mausoleum Site Museum are today
light
brown, but they weren’t always. They began as an army of red, blue, yellow, green, white, and purple. Sadly, most of the colors did not last to the present day. After being exposed to air during excavation (挖掘), the coating under the paint began to fall off. The paint disappeared in less time than it takes to boil an egg, taking with it important pieces of history.
Now new techniques are starting to reveal the army’s true colors. Archaeologists have recently discovered an area with more than a hundred soldiers. Many of them still have their painted features, including black hair, pink faces, and black or brown eyes. Chinese and German researchers have developed a special liquid to help preserve the soldiers’ colors. After they find a soldier or other artifacts(手工艺品), archaeologists spray it with the liquid. They, then, cover it in plastic.
Archaeologists are also finding colors in the dirt around the soldiers. It’s important not to disturb the dirt, so the colors won’t be lost. " We are treating the earth as an artifact," says archaeologist Rong Bo, the museum’s leading chemist. The next challenge, says Rong, is to find a way to apply the colors to the army again. Once that happens, artists can bring Emperor Qin’s army back to life in full, vivid color.
The word "light" in Paragraph 2 means "________".
选项
A、not dark
B、not brown
C、not fatty
D、shining
答案
A
解析
根据第二段内容可知,本段讲述了兵马俑颜色的变化,它们开始时有红色、蓝色、黄色等颜色,但大多数颜色没有保存到现在。再结合常识可推知,兵马俑是用黏土制作的,褪色之后呈现的是黏土的颜色,即浅棕色,light意为“浅色的”,与A项(不是深色的)意思最为接近。B项意为“不是棕色的”;C项意为“不肥胖的”;D项意为“杰出的”,这三项均不符合题意。故选A。
