Lesson 66 Sweet as honey!
In 1963 a Lancaster bomber crashed onWallis Island, a remote place in the South Pacific, a long way west of Samoa.The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over the years, the crash was forgottenand the wreck remained undisturbed. Then in 1989, twenty-six years after thecrash, the plane was accidentally rediscovered in an aerial survey of theisland. By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare andworth rescuing. The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved inparts back to France. Now a group of enthusiasts are going to have the planerestored. It has four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, but the group will need tohave only three of them rebuilt. Imagine their surprise and delight when theybroke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet ashoney -- still in perfect condition. A colony of bees had turned the engineinto a hive and it was totally preserved in beeswax!

但是收獲還是很大的,畢竟花了很多的時(shí)間在這上面……
