Despite the fact that it has never been seen almost everyone is familiar with the legendary unicorn(独
角兽). Descriptions of unicorns have been found dating from ancient times. The great philosopher
Aristotle theorized(推理) that there were two types of unicorns-the socalled Indian Ass and the Oryx
a kind of antelope. Unicorns are often used in the logo of a noble family town council or university as
their special sign. Even Scotland is represented by a unicorn.
According to the legend anyone attempting to catch a unicorn had to be extremely cautious as it has
a reputation for being very fierce. A clever trick suggested by unicorntrappers in order to catch this
magnificent beast without being hurt by its horn was for the hunter to stand in front of a tree and then
to move quickly behind it as the unicorn charged. Hopefully the creature could then be captured when
its horn was stuck in the tree.
When hollowed out and used as a drinkingcup the unicorn's horn was said to have the power to
offer protection against person. It was believed that nobody could be harmed by drinking the contents
of a unicorn's horn. Right up until the French Revolution in 1789 the French court was said to have
used cups made of "unicorn" horn in order to protect the king. In addition the horn was said to have
medicinal value so much so that it could be sold for more than ten times the price of the same weight
of gold. What then was "unicorn" horn? We know at times the rhino(犀牛) was confused with this
legendary creature. A drinkingcup supposedly made of "unicorn" horn was discovered to be made of the
horn of a rhino.
1. Which of the following is TRUE of the unicorn?
A. It was not historically recorded.
B. Its horn was first used in France.
C. It was similar to the Indian Ass and the Oryx.
D. It could be the symbol of a university.
2. To catch a unicorn the unicorntrappers had to try all of the following EXCEPT________.
A. tempting the unicorn to attack
B. making use of the tree as a protection
C. hiding quickly behind the unicorn
D. having the unicorn horn stuck in the tree
3. The last paragraph is mainly about________.
A. the value of the unicorn horn
B. the users of the unicorn horn
C. the price of the unicorn horn
D. the comparison between the unicorn horn and the rhino horn
4. In the last paragraph the word "unicorn" is in quotation marks(引号) because________.
A. the cup is designed only for a royal family
B. the unicorn does not exist in reality
C. the unicorn is the rarest animal in the world
D. the medicinal value of the horn is appreciated
