98. Speaking from the Grave p.171
Two students， Beth and Carl， are talking about the red-haired mummies.
B： Can you imagine what it was like 4，000 years ago？
C： That's hard to imagine. But if the mummies could speak， they could certainly tell us a great deal.
B： Well， that， of course， is impossible. But scientists can tell a lot from the things the explorers found.
C： I know. For example， they think the 4000-year-old mummies were Celts.
B： Who were the Celts？
C： They were ancient European people who settled in Britain even before the Romans existed.
B： Wow！ That's amazing！
C： So you see， although mummies don't really speak， they are speaking from their graves.
B： STOP it！ you're giving me the creeps！
