Unit 1　Cultural relics　文化遗产Did the Amber Room burn in last days of WWⅡ？被誉为“世界第八大奇迹”的琥珀屋在二战结束后，突然从世人眼中失去了踪影。可是又有谁知道，它本来可以重现天日，却由于一名二战士兵的粗心而与世人失之交臂。A Russian veteran (退役军人)，Leonid Arinshtein，ever said that he saw parts of the Amber Room in the closing days of World War Ⅱ，suggesting one of the world’s greatest missing art treasures was burned at a German castle after it was taken over by the Red Army.Leonid Arinshtein is an expert with the nongovernmental Russian Culture Foundation.In a recently published book，he says it disappeared in a fire after the German city of Königsberg fell to the Soviets (苏联)．In an interview，Arinshtein,79，remembered seeing parts of amber decoration (装饰) in the Königsburg Castle but said he realized it was part of the lost treasure only years later.“I was probably one of the last people who saw the Amber Room，” said Arinshtein，who was in charge of a team when he knocked on the castle door in April 1945.“But I was a 19­year­old boy，and I didn’t understand what I saw.”Treasures kept in a basement？Arinshtein described how he entered Königsberg Castle，accompanied by others，as battles went on in the streets.He said he noticed parts of a wall panel (墙板) and a mirror frame in amber on the walls of the Knight’s Hall and asked the castle’s keeper about them.The man nervously told him the rest of the amber paneling was kept in cases in the basement and offered to show Arinshtein around，but the young Russian refused.“It didn’t occur to me that it was the Amber Room，” Arinshtein said.“I thought it was just some ordinary amber decoration，and it left me indifferent (漠不关心)”．When Arinshtein tried to tour the castle a couple of days later，he couldn’t reach it：The entire city was in flames，and black smoke filled the skies.Only years later，when he saw articles about the Amber Room hidden in Königsberg，did he make the connection between the parts he saw and the missing treasure，Arinshtein said.But Königsberg was annexed (吞并)．
