People have long thought that dinosaurs were brown or gray in color. To examine is one important way to find out the answer. The word “examine” is to look at or consider something in detail in order to discover something about them. After examining the remains （遗骸） of a dinosaur, scientists say they have found evidence it had bright-coloured feathers. The findings were printed in Science magazine.
American and Chinese scientists did careful research and re-built the feathers of a flightless dinosaur. The small, two-legged creature （生物） lived about one hundred-fifty million years ago. It would have weighed only about one hundred ten grams. The dinosaur’s remains were discovered in Liaoning Province in China. Researchers studied melanosomes（黑素体） in the feathers. These melanosomes are small, color-producing things, and they formed as the dinosaur was developing. The researchers compared them to the melanosomes that control the colour of feathers on modern birds. They were then able to make out the colors of the dinosaur feathers. The dinosaur appeared to have a dark gray or black body. The top of the creature was light brown in color. And, it had bright white wings. Each of the feathers had black on the end.
Richard Prum,a biologist at Yale University,says the melanosomes were in very good condition. He says the dinosaur would be a beautiful creature if it were still alive.
The discovery is useful to scientists in another way. It helps them better understand not only how dinosaurs looked but also how they lived in their daily life. Some researchers plan to use this way to study the colours of other feathered dinosaurs.

长期以来人们认为恐龙的皮肤是褐色或灰色的.找出答案的一个重要方法就是调查.单词“调查”含义是指详细地研究某样东西以探寻关于它的未知事物.通过仔细研究恐龙的遗骸,科学家称他们已经发现了恐龙具有鲜艳羽毛的证据.这一结论刊登在科学杂志上面.
美国和中国两国的科学家们仔细研究并重组了一只不会飞行的恐龙的羽毛.小型两肢生物大约生活在一百五十万年前.它的重量可能只有约一百一十克.在中国的辽宁省人们发现了恐龙的遗骸.研究者通过研究恐龙羽毛中的黑素体,发现这些黑素体很小而且能产生颜色,并随着恐龙个体的发育而逐渐形成.研究者将他们与现代鸟类中颜色变化来源的黑素体进行比较,据此能够弄清恐龙羽毛的颜色.恐龙似乎有一个深灰色或黑色的躯干,浅棕色的头部,白色的羽翼.每一根羽毛都有着黑色的尾端.
Richard Prum,是耶鲁大学的一名生物学家,他认为,这些黑素体都完好无损,并且如果恐龙还活着的话,它会是一种漂亮的生物.这个发现在另一方面有助于科学家更好地理解恐龙的外观,以及它们是一种怎样的日常生活状态.一些研究者计划将此方法应用于其他羽翼恐龙外观颜色的研究当中.
