💎你知道德國有座蓋在鑽石上的小鎮嗎？諾德林根（Nördlingen）原本被以為是火山口，其實是 1,500 萬年前小行星撞擊地球留下的大坑！強烈的撞擊力把岩石變成含「微小鑽石」的 suevite 石頭。當地人用這種石頭蓋房子，卻不知道裡面藏著寶，直到 1960 年代才被科學家發現！📚 本集文法學習重點：1️⃣ 被動語態（Passive voice）例句：The land was made by an asteroid.2️⃣ 過去進行式（Past continuous）例句：...when they were building the town.🎧 Story text:When people first moved to Nördlingen, Germany, they thought they lived in a volcanic crater. But the land was made by something else – an asteroid. About 15 million years ago, the asteroid hit the ground, and this created a big hole. The force of the impact turned rocks into a special stone called suevite, which has tiny diamonds inside. The people didn't know about the diamonds when they were building the town. It wasn't until scientists came in the 1960s that they found out. Now, Nördlingen is famous for buildings made from this stone. Many visitors come to learn about its unique history. This town generates a lot of conversation online, with many finding it interesting, and even "amazing".📖 Readle App 下載連結：⁠https://readle-app.onelink.me/cKqE/8suoeb2w"
