27、olar system.The object was first sighted last month by Charles Kowal, an astronomer at the Hale Observatories in Pasadena, Calif.

On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high.
34、 At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordinary about it. There are many stories, poems, and songs about the cliff.

51、onto the ice covering Beeb Lake, which connected (连接) to where the school got its drinking water.
