Weighing a dinsaur is n easy task. These extinct creatures were massive, and fr the mst part, all that remains are their bnes, as their rgans and skin have lng since disappeared. Hwever, new research has fund mre than ne way t measure the mass f these creatures.
In a paper published recently in Bilgical Reviews, scientists evaluated the tw existing ways that calculate hw much a Tyrannsaurus rex (霸王龙) might have weighed. Led by Niclas Campine frm the University f New England, they examined an extensive database f dinsaur bdy mass estimates frm as far back as 1905, with weight estimates fr an individual ranging frm 3 tns t 18 tns.
In an essay published by The Cnversatin, Campine explains that fr years, scientists fllwed tw rival (对立的) appraches fr calculating a dinsaurˈs weight. These methds were lng thught t be at dds with each ther, but Campineˈs team fund that bth techniques are actually quite accurate.
Using limb circumference (肢体周长) t wrk ut an animalˈs mass is already widely used acrss a variety f mdern land animals. The same methd can be applied t dinsaurs: Researchers essentially measure the bnes in living animals, such as the femur (股骨) in an elephantˈs leg, and cmpare that figure t a dinsaurˈs femur.
The secnd methd invlves calculating the vlume f 3D recnstructins f dinsaurs, which serve as apprximatins (近似值) f what the creature wuld have lked like when it was still alive. Occasinally, these methds have cme t very different cnclusins.
David Evans, a researcher at the Ryal Ontari Museum, in Trnt, says itˈs imprtant t use bth methds because dinsaurs, like humans, did nt cme in ne neat package. “There will always be uncertainty arund ur understanding f lng-extinct animals, and their weight is always ging t be a surce f it,” he says in a statement. “Our new study suggests we are getting better at weighing dinsaurs, and itˈs paving the way fr mre realistic dinsaur bdy-mass estimatin in the future.”
8.Why is it difficult t weigh dinsaurs?
A. Their rgans were massive.
B. They have lng disappeared.
C. There is n way t find their bnes.
D. Their skin is hard t measure.
9.What can we infer frm Paragraph 3?
A. Measuring a living animal is nt challenging.
B. Either existing technique is quite precise t weigh a dinsaur.
C. Scientists have fund a new way t calculate a dinsaurˈs weight.
D. There is a heated debate abut the tw different appraches.
10.Hw can ne accurately measure the dinsaurs accrding t David Evans?
A. By measuring limb circumference.
B. By cmbining different methds, tgether.
C. By wrking ur-3D recnstructins f dinsaurs.
D. By cmparing the figure f a living animal t a dinsaur femur.
11.What can be the best title fr the text?
A. Hw t Weigh a Dinsaur Prperly
