One night in March 1999, a man was driving from California to Oregon, US, to visit some friends. He had stopped his car to have some food when he started to hear strange noises. Turning on the headlights, he saw an 8-foot-tall creature covered in thick, dark hair. The creature stared at him for a minute, turned in the road and walked off slowly into the woods.

In the past 50 years alone, there have been thousands of reported sightings of similar creatures in the US, Canada, the Himalayas(喜马拉雅山地区)and even Hubei Province in China. The creature is known as bigfoot.
Bigfoot is said to be a very tall(between 2 and 4. 5 metres), ape-like(类人猿似的)creature that is covered in hair and walks upright on two legs. It is very wary(警惕的)of human beings.
Believers think bigfoot is a direct descendent(后代)of ancient gigantopithecus(巨猿). But it remains one of the planet’s undiscovered secrets. There is a little evidence(证据)to support the believers’ theory: traces of hair, footprints and body prints as well as the reported sightings. Some people have even showed what they say with photos or films of bigfoot.
But so far, no one has found bones or any other definite proof that the giant creature exists.
As a result many people believe the evidence is just part of a big trick.
The footprints are easy to make and they say: all you need to do is to make two large feet out of plaster(石膏), attach them to the bottom of your shoes and walk with big steps. As for the photos and films, they are just people dressed in ape suits.
They also say the sightings are not real, just people making mistakes. For example, bigfoot could be a bear living in the wild that sometimes stands up on its back legs.

(答案→)B 解析：【文章大意】本文描述了“雪人”的一些目击证据并对其进行了分析说明, 也给出了一些相对比较科学的猜测。【小题1】选B。细节理解题。的确是有“bigfoot”留下的痕迹, 到底bigfoot是谁留下的, 谁也没有把握, A项属于将猜测的东西当成事实; C项是一些人的“认为”; D项与文章描述不符。【小题2】选C。细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“In the past 50 years alone, there have been thousands of reported sightings of similar creatures in the US, Canada, the Himalayas and even Hubei Province in China. ”推测可知是the 1950’s。【小题3】选A。推理判断题。由文章中“As a result many people believe the evidence is just part of a big trick. ”作者在暗示有人有意捏造证据, 骗人相信。【小题4】选C。推理判断题。如果真的是gigantopithecus留下的脚印, 那就证明的确有这样的动物, 而整篇文章都是用的推测的语气, 由此可得答案为C。
