Why does the vicar refuse to cut down the tree?
The tiny village of Frinley is said to posses a "cursed tree".Because the tree was mentioned in a newspaper, the number of visitors to Frinley has now increased. The tree was planted near the church fifty years ago.but it is only in recent years that it has gained an evil reputation. It is said that if anyone touches the tree, he will have bad luck. If he picks a leaf, he will die. Many villagers believe that the tree has already claimed a number of victims. The vicar has been asked to have the tree cut down,but so far, he has refused. He has pointed out that the tree is a useful source of income. As tourists have been coming from all parts of the country to see it. In spite of all that has been said,the tourists have been picking leaves and cutting down their names on the tree-trunk. So far, not one of them has been struck down by sudden death.

练习感悟
前晚和家人去唱歌时候,就在想一个问题,怎么把歌唱好听呢?记不住调子,是不是意味着读英语也记不住节奏呢?因为不是麦霸,唱歌也不是很擅长,所以很少唱。所以当自己唱时,我就想着,把每个字都清晰地发音,不像以前那样瞎哼哼,然后效果出奇的好,还能跟上节奏。然后昨天练习英语时,我就在跟读过程中,坚持把每个单词的音都完整清晰地发出来,而不是为了跟上节奏就一带而过,几轮下来,语感似乎又好了一些,昨天以前经常点评我的发音的同学,竟然没有指正我的发音问题,还表示进步很大,发音很标准。表示很开心。持续行动,刻意练习,路漫漫,却总会伴有进步的小惊喜
