People call these strange objects Unidentified Flying Objects(UFOs). These UFOs caused a lo
22、t of interest. Some of the reports about them are difficult to believe. Some have been explained in scientific ways. Others have never been explained. Here is an account of UFOs from a report.Dennis Burdens, who wrote an article, tells us that he once saw a UFO himself. He was having dinner one nigh
23、t with a friend near Tripoli, Libya, and after dinner the two men walked across a yard to his room to look at some papers. Burdens noticed that the moon looked strange that night.“It wasnt the moon,” was the reply.They watched the light and saw that it was moving. It seemed to be an object rather li
24、ke a big plate. In some ways it looked like smoke with a light on it, but it wasnt smoke because it didnt change its shape. It was moving in a regular way. That is to say, it didnt go suddenly faster or more slowly, and it didnt go higher or lower. So the two men decided that there must be men in it
25、.After that, Burdens said that he felt eyes looking at him. He was being watched in the darkness.When it was nearer, they noticed that the bottom parts were brighter than the top. The bottom was yellow and the top red. Then the object suddenly turned away and left Libya, moving very fast.On a later
26、day Burdens talked to other people about it, and he found some who had seen it. They all described it in the same way. Could they all be mistaken?51 UFOs are_.

29、t off into the darkness and I was alone in a very rough sea. I then spent five and a half hours in the water. The place where it happened was, oh, about 50 kilometers from shore. It was likely that I wouldnt see another day, but I always thought Id overcome the difficulties. At first I was watching
30、out for Wild One. The rest of the crew knew I was gone, so they were sure to come back and look for me. After a while, I saw the boats lights when it came looking for me. They were within about 300 meters of me, but the spotlight just missed me. The reason why they didnt see me was because of the hu
31、ge waves. You know, I started sailing when I was seven, and started ocean racing when I was about eighteen, but Id never been overboard before. I believed I was going to survive, but it was very cold, and as the hours passed I started to get desperate and frozen! It was around 5 am when I saw the li
32、ghts of a tanker (游船) coming towards me. I figured it was probably my last chance.

36、he French franc or German deutschmark has not been an easy one.
