查看习题详情和答案>>Recently, a study was carried out to determine who was the greatest American president.Sixty-five presidential historians took part in it, and they judged the past forty-two American leaders based on ten leadership qualities, including public persuasiveness (信服), crisis leadership, management of the economy, moral leadership, and conduct of international relations.The historians also looked at administrative (管理) ability, relations with Congress, ability to set goals, and the pursuit of equal justice for all.Finally, the experts took into consideration the historical period in which the president lived.
The historians chose Abraham Lincoln as American’s greatest president.He had also been named best president in a similar study in 2000.Abraham Lincoln was the president who led the nation through the Civil War in the 1860s, and was able to unite it in the end.He also took the first steps to abolish slavery in America.
Edna Medford, a professor of history at Howard University in Washington, D.C., was an adviser on this study and the earlier one.She says Abraham Lincoln is seen to represent the values the nation most honors, such as truthfulness, moderation, and respect for human rights.
The historians put American’s first president, George Washington, second on the list, while Franklin D.Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, and Harry Truman follow in that order.John F.Kennedy, the country’s first Roman Catholic president, is sixth on the list.Like Lincoln, Kennedy was murdered while in office.
Among recent presidents, Ronald Reagan was named the tenth best and Bill Clinton rated fifteenth, while the historians put former president George W.Bush at number thirty-six.His father, George H.W.Bush, did much better, being placed at number eighteen.

The mummy is believed to be Ramses Ⅰ,the founder of the 19th Dynasty of ancient Egypt.It was stolen in the 19th century,at the time when many explorers from Europe and America wanted to find the mummified bodies of Pharaohs(法老).They had heard stories of the Pharaohs being buried with treasures of great artistic, scientific and financial value.?
But when King Tut was discovered in 1922 in Egypt they realized the Pharaohs might have been buried with something else as well—curses(咒语).?
As soon as Englishman Howard Carter found King Tut's tomb,strange things started to happen.On the night of the discovery,Carter's canary(金丝雀) was killed by a snake.It was the same kind of snake found on a symbol worn by the Pharaohs on their foreheads. A few months later,Lord Carnarvon,the man who paid for Carter's trip,died suddenly in Cairo of unknown causes.By 1935,no fewer than 21 people connected with the discovery of the tomb had died. ?
After much argument over whether the curse of King Tut really existed,four years ago German scientist Gotthard Kramer tried to find it out for certain.He discovered that bacteria(细菌) on the mummy could have been responsible for the deaths.“When this bacteria enters the body through the nose,mouth or eyes,”Kramer said,“it can result in illness or even death,particularly to those with bad health.”?
But perhaps the power of the curse is in the minds of those who believe it.Carter,the man who actually opened the tomb,lived to 66 before dying of natural causes.“All sensible people should dismiss(不予理会) these curse ideas as rubbish,”he said. ?
