As a teen, Fenn idolized the decorated World War II fighter pilot, called Robin Olds and latteremulated his hero during The Vietnam War as an Air fighter pilot to go to New Mexico and settledthere as an arts and antiques dealer, hunting down valuable paintings, rugs, war memorabilia, andother antique to sell.

"I wanted to create someexcitement, some hope, before I died," says Fenn,82, adding that he also wanted to "get kids out ofthe game room and offthe couch."

In 2010, Fenn topped offthe chest with jewels and valuable stones and hid it somewhere deepin the Rocky Mountains, north of Sante Fe.

A few months later, a story about the treasure appeared in a magazine. Since then, Fenn hasreceived thousands of e-mails from treasure hunters. Some request more clues to the box. But mostly "people thanked me for bringing their family together," he says with a self-comforting smile on hisface. In April, Fenn told a crowd at an Albuquerque bookstore that two groups of treasure huntershad gotten within 500 feet of the chest. "They walked right by it," he said. Fenn is confident that the treasure will be unearthed eventually and says i_t will take the rightcombination of cunning and perseverance. "It will be discovered by someone who has read the cluescarefully and successfully. But nobody is going to happen upon it," he predicts. He hopes that whoever finds the loot will relish the riches and the adventure of finding them.

[不定项选择题]共用题干 New Foods and the New World
In the last 500 years,nothing about people—not their clothes,ideas,or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians .The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500's .And although it was very expensive,it quickly became fashionable.In London,shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.
The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600,the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe,where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the“Potato Famine”of 1845—1846,and thou- sands more were forced to emigrate to America.
There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world's largest grower of coffee,and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries.But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400's.
According to an Arabic legend,coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush.He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake”feeling that one-third of the world's population now starts the day with. The Arabic legend is used to prove that
A.coffee was first discovered by Kaldi
B.coffee was first discovered by Kaldi's goats
C.coffee was first discovered in south American countries
D.coffee drinks were first made by Arabs
