In 1963 a Lancaster bomber crashed on Wallis 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 forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed. Then in 1989, twenty-six years after the crash, the plane was accidentally rediscovered in an aerial survey of the island. By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare and worth rescuing. The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved in parts back to France. Now a group of enthusiasts are going to have the plane restored. It has four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, but the group will need to have only three of them rebuilt. Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet as honey -- still in perfect condition. A colony of bees had turned the engine into a hive and it was totally preserved in beeswax!

练习感悟：

我觉得自己在背诵时还是有些心浮气躁。总想着要快一些把这篇文章流利地背下来。可结果总是既不流利也没有像朗读一样每个词吐清楚。

所以，晚上在预习明天的文章时，我慢了下来。将一句话好好地朗读一遍，就像晨读时那样一个字一个字地吐清楚。这样的收获比我很快地读完有效得多，我的记忆也更清晰。
