We were travelling in Italy recently and what really made our trip memorable are the encounters (邂逅) with Italian grandmas. I just1a busy road in Rome. A grandma right next to me sprinted (飛奔) across and came back with my baby’s missing shoe. I hadn’t even2and she thought it would be easier to run twice than try to communicate with me through our language3.
Another time, I was looking for Fontana de Trevis (許愿池) and4off in the name of looking at this and that. Out came a5from a small café and she at once knew I was6. She took me by the hand and asked where I was heading for. Then she7me to the fountain and three minutes later, I was standing in front of the masterpiece.
On the last day of our8, we were in the local Metro train and a very old grandma got on. The train was9and many of us offered our seats to her. She accepted my10and a couple of stops later, I found myself11again, right next to her. We12, she in Italian and me in English. When she13my husband and I were heading for Tivoli, she took out her return14for the expensive inter-city bus and put them into my hand.
I’ve lost count of the grandmas that played with our baby as if he was their own. But the15of all those grandmas is very hard to forget.

  If you dream of going somewhere warm to escape the cold winter weather, a trip to a recently discovered planet would certainly warm you right up. The planet, named OGLE-TR-566, has temperatures of more than F. “This is the hottest planet we know about. ” says Dr. Dimitar Sasselov, a scientist who led the discovery team. “It is hot enough to have an iron fog and to rain hot iron droplets (細(xì)沫) . ”

  The new planet is 30 times farther away than any planet discovered by scientists before. It is in the Milky Way (銀河) but it's not in our solar (太陽的) .The new planet moves around a star much like our sun , however. Scientists discovered the planet by using a new planet-searching method, called “ transit technique. ” They were able to catch sight of the planet when it moved in front of its star, causing the star's light to dim(變暗) . Scientists compare the method to discovering the shadow of a bee flying in front of a searchlight 200 miles away. “We believe the door has been opened wide to go and discover planets like Earth.”says Sasselov.
