论文部分内容阅读
  It was a beautiful sunny morning in Mexico City. The date was October 10th, the year was 1593.
  In the main square(中心广场) of the city, soldiers (士兵) stood in front of the Royal Palace. The people of the city came and went as usual (寻常). But there was something strange about one of the soldiers: He wore a different uniform (制服) from the others. When the other soldiers saw him, they began asking him questions. “Who are you? Where are you from?”one of the other soldiers asked. “Im a Spanish soldier,”“The governor?” one of the soldiers replied (回復到),“Which governor?” “The governor of Manila, of course.”
  The other soldiers told him he was in Mexico City—thousands of kilometres from the city of Manila. The young soldiers was amazed(吃惊) and had no idea how he came to be in a city so far from his home.
  Nobody believed his strange story. In the end, they put the young man in prison(监狱), and left him there until (直到) they decided what to do.
  Two months later, a Spanish ship (船) arrived from Manila. It brought news (带来消息) that the governor of Manila was dead—and the time of his death was 10 p.m. on the evening of October 9th,1593. Was the young mans story true?
  Four hundred years later, no one knows how it was possible for a man to travel across the world in one night without knowing how or why.
