As one of the oldest castles in Ireland，Blarney Castle (布拉尼城堡) was built in 1446.It's so fantastic that more than 450，000 visitors come to visit it every year.

When we talk about Blarney Castle，we must mention the magic Blarney Stone.It was built into the wall at the top of Blarney Castle.The tradition of kissing the Blarney Stone dates back more than 200 years.It's said that if you kiss the stone，you will get the gift of great speaking skills.So，it's not only an excellent place for a visit but a true window into the Irish culture.

However，it's never easy to get that gift.To kiss the Blarney Stone，one must lie on his back and hang upside down while holding onto the metal bars (棒).For visitors' safety，a worker from Blarney Castle is there to help those kissing the stone.

Though there is no recorded history about the origins (来源) of the stone，there is an interesting story.Some people believe that the stone was brought over from the Holy Land.After the owner of the castle saved a witch (女巫) from a nearby lake，she was so thankful that she gave the stone to him as a gift.She told him that if he kissed it，he would become good at speaking.

We'll never know for sure whether the story is true or not，but it does add to the mystery and excite the interest of tourists from around the world.

Not long ago，an airplane was flying over New Zealand.There was a television camera crew (摄影组) on board.Suddenly，out in the night sky, a bright ball came into view. Everyone on board saw it and they thought it was a UFO.They all went into action and started filming. That week people all over the world saw the film of this mysterious light on their TV screens.

What was it? Was it a spaceship full of visitors from another planet? The captain of the airplane and the film crew believed it was. Other people had many different explanations. Some said it was Venus. Others said it was just a trick of light.An air traffic controller also saw it on his radar screen. He thought that a group of birds were causing dots on his radar screen when the UFO appeared.Most scientists now believe that what these people saw was almost certainly the planet Venus. At that time of year it is very bright and easy to see. And from a moving airplane it can appear to be moving fast. So far there is no proof (证明) that UFOs or spaceships from other planets do exist. These years experts of UFOs here investigated (研究) thousands of sightings or places when people said they saw a UFO. Ninety percent of these turned out to have a simple explanation.

However, it's a good idea to keep an open mind. Scientists in some countries are trying to ask their governments to help them study UFOs. And they are planning to cooperate internationally on reporting and investigating sightings of UFOs.

After all, it is quite possible that there is life out there in the universe. And if something is alive, it is quite possible that it will come to visit

us.
