One day Galileo(伽利略)had a letter from a friend in Holland(荷兰). “A Dutchman(荷兰人)here1________ a special(特殊的)kind of glass,” his friend wrote. “His name is Lippershey. I met him yesterday when I2________ beside a river. There was a beautiful girl on the far side of the river. I looked at her through his glass, and her face came quite close to me. I cried out with surprise. I thought that I could touch her,3________ I put out my hand. Then I almost4________ into the water. Lippershey laughed, because the girl was still on the far side of the river. He hasn't any copies of thin glass at present(目前), so I can't buy one5________ you.” Galileo read the letter twice. Then he jumped up from his chair. “I shall make a glass like that,” he cried. “I shall make a6________ one. I can see girls’ faces with my own eyes. But7________ a strong glass, perhaps I shall see the face of the moon”

  He began to work at once. He didn't need to see Lippershey's glass. The idea was8________ for him, and very soon his glass was ready. He gave it a name “the telescope”(from the Greek(希腊)words for “far” and “see”). Lippershey could see9________ the land, but Galileo could see across the sky.

When it was ready, Galileo looked through it at the moon. He was10________ surprised to speak. He could see the moon's face clearly. Like his friend in Holland, he wanted to put out his hand and touch it.
