第一篇 Captain Cook Arrow Legend?
It was a great legend while it lasted,but DNA testing has (1) finally HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) ended a two-century-old story of the Hawaiian arrow carved from the bone of British explorer Captain James Cook(2) who HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) died in the Sandwich Islands’in 1779. “There is (3) no HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) Cook in the Australian Museum,’’museum collection manager Jude Philip said not long ago in announcing the DNA evidence that the arrow was not made of Cook’S bone.But that will not stop the museum from continuing to display the arrow in its(4) exhibition HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) ,“Uncovered:Treasures of the Australian Museum,” which(5) does HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) include a feather cape presented to Cook by Hawaiian King Kalani’opu’u in 1778. Cook was one of Britain’s great explorers and is credited with(6) discovering HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) the“Great South Land,(7) now HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) Australia, in 1 770.He was clubbed to death in the Sandwich Islands,now Hawaii。
The 1egend of Cook’s arrow began in 1824 (8) when HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) Hawaiian King Kamehameha on his deathbed gave the arrow to William Adams,a London surgeon and relative of Cook’s wife,saying it was made of Cook’s bone after the fatal(9) fight HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) with islanders. In the 1890s the arrow was given to the Australian Museum and the legend continued (10) until HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) it came face=to-face with science. DNA testing by laboratories in Australia and New Zealand revealed the arrow was not made of Cook’s bone but was more (11) likely? HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) made of animal bone。said Philp. However, Cook’s fans (12) refuse HYPERLINK javascript:void(0) to give up hope that one Cook legend will prove true and that part of his remains will still be uncovered.as they say there is evidence not a11 of Cook’s body
