The world we live in is full of things that can't be explained even by today's science. They are mysterious because no satisfactory① answers have been offered② to explain them. Though these mysteries have puzzled people for a long time, they still show great interest in them.The most famous one is the UFOs. UFO stands for③ Unidentified Flying Object. According to some witnesses, they are bright and move at a slow, steady speed with little noise. Yetis are famous too. The Yeti has been called the “missing link” — half-man, half-beast. It is supposed to④ live in the highest mountain in the world — Mount Qomolangma. Do you hear of the story of Crop Circles? Crop circles often appear in spring or summer when wheat, barley, rye⑤ or maize⑥ is growing in the fields. A crop circle is a large pattern created by the flattening⑦ crop. The first crop circle was discovered in England in 1647. They have been found in many places all over the world. Stonehenge is a monument of huge rock slabs⑧ in the southwest of England built in the Stone Age. It is believed that Stonehenge served some sort of religious purpose. Up to now nobody knows for sure⑨ how it came into being⑩.There are many other unexplained things in the world, such as the pyramids in Egypt and the Great Wall in China.
