Reading about history is nice, but finding ties to long-ago historical events in your own backyard is really exciting.

In their heavily populated area, neighbors Adam Giles,13, and Derek Hann.12, uncovered pieces of glass that looked quite different from what’s used today. “After digging about two feet down, I came across an interesting bottle,” Derek said. The bottle had a “pontil scar” on the bottle, an indication that it was hand-blown rather than machine made. It also had the name “Fraser” on one side.

Adam found remains of a green bottle and some very thick brown glass—again, far different from today’s.

After doing research on the computer, the boys contacted Aimee Wells of the county’s Cultural Resources office. She showed them a computer program that digitally puts old maps over modern satellite photographs.

 Bingo! Their back yards were once part of a military(軍事的) encampment(營地) called Camp Alger used by Ohio soldiers on their way to fight in the Spanish-American War in 1898.

So how do a few bottles get connected to a brief war that was more than a century ago? “We get there by good judgment,” Wells said. “We know the time period of the bottles and what happened in that area.” Anyone can dig a hole, but archaeologists seek a deeper understanding. How do objects found relate to things around them?

When Derek and Adam realized that a solider might have held that Fraser bottle 110 years ago, they wondered what he might have been thinking. What did he see as he looked around him? How did he pass the time waiting to go into battle?

Historical records show that while waiting for orders, the soldiers in and around Camp Alger played baseball, played instruments and walked seven miles to the Potomac River once a week for baths. A spread of strange fever forced the closing of the camp, and there are no buildings to study. “What’s left is only what’s in the ground,” said Wells.

Derek’s and Adam’s back yards have joined the 3,400 places listed on the county’s register of archaeological sites. The boys were given tips on how to dig effectively and safely, and on how to document the location of items found.

The official record of their finds serves as another piece of the puzzle for historians seeking to form a more complete story of what happened.

 “Not everyone is going to have historical objects in their own yard,” Wells said. “That’s okay. Make your own time capsule and bury it. What would you want people to know about your life years from now?”

What is the passage mainly about?

A. How Adam Giles and Derek Hann dug out the remains of an ancient military encampment.

B. What Adam Giles and Derek Hann found in their back yard and its relationship with an encampment.

C. The great contribution Adam Giles and Derek Hann made to the cause of archaeology.

D. The tips on how to dig out ancient objects buried under the ground safely and effectively.

From the passage, we can see that the boy’s discovery _______.

A. includes all kinds of hand-made and machine- made glass.

B. has helped historians find out what happened in 1898.

C. couldn’t have been meaningful without Aimee Wells’ help.

D. has added the county to the list of archaeologist sites.

When Wells said “We get there by good judgment.” (Paragraph 6), she meant

that_______.

A. they have established the ties to Camp Alger by finding out the time period of the bottles.

B. they have figured out how to get to the place where the brief war happened.

C. they have managed to dig out the bottles in the back yard safely with common sense.

D. they were able to locate the soldiers who used the Fraser bottles 110 years ago.

Which of the following fits the description of historical records?

A. The soldiers in and around Camp Alger delighted in playing basketball in their spare time.

B. When Camp Alger was forced to close, all the buildings there were destroyed.

C. The soldiers in and around Camp Alger often buried some bottles underground as time capsules.

D. Camp Alger was forced to close because of a spread of a strange fever.

This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling.The author, W.H.Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing.In his opinion, reading doesn’t just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself.The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees.Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text.I’ve seen it again and again: someone who can’t express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn’t read it at all.
Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages, math, science and history.He generally handles these topics thoroughly(透徹地) and equally, except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion(激情) regarding history.Well, he was a history teacher — if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students, that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across.To my disappointment, in this part of the book he ignores the arts.As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do, though the study differs slightly in kind.Although it’s commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.
My other comment is that the text aged.The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s — none of the references(參考文獻)seem newer than the late 1950s.As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age.
These are small points, though, and don’t affect the main discussion.I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student.
【小題1】According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________.

A.gain knowledge and expand one’s view
B.understand the meaning between the lines
C.express ideas based on what one has read
D.get information and keep it alive in memory
【小題2】The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________.
A.requires great effortsB.demands real passion
C.is less natural than learning mathsD.is as natural as learning a language
【小題3】What is a shortcoming of Armstrong’s work according to the author?
A.Some ideas are slightly contradictory.
B.There is too much discussion on studying science.
C.The style is too serious.
D.It lacks new information.
【小題4】This passage can be classified as________.
A.a(chǎn)n advertisementB.a(chǎn) book review
C.a(chǎn) feature story D.a(chǎn) news report
