When hereturns home at night, he always finds that someone has parked a car outsidehis gate. Because of this, he has not been able to get his own car into hisgarage even once. Jasper has put up' No Parking' signs outside his gate, butthese have not had any effect. Now he has put an ugly stone head over the gate.It is one of the ugliest faces I have ever seen. I asked him what it was and hetold me that it was Medusa, the Gorgon. Jasper hopes that she will turn carsand their owners to stone. But none of them has been turned to stone yet!

任務(wù)配置:L0 +L4
筆記:
1.知識點
(1)ancient myths 古代神話
(2)ever since 語氣比since強罗丰,表示“從那以后一直掌腰,北专,主句一般用完成時
(3)even once 甚至一次(也沒有)
Even 可用于加強語氣用,意思是“甚至,連”
(4)背景知識:
Gorgon是希臘神話傳說中的蛇發(fā)三姐妹坏平,是海神福爾庫斯的女兒试和。她們的頭上和脖子上布滿鱗甲泥张,頭發(fā)是一條條蠕動的毒蛇阿浓,長著野豬的獠牙补君,還有一雙鐵手和金翅膀。她們分別是絲西娜(Stheno)拍霜、尤瑞愛莉(Euryale)嘱丢、美杜莎(Medusa),在西方傳說中以丑陋聞名祠饺。Medusa是gorgon的其中之一越驻,她把見過她的人都變成了石頭。
練習(xí)感悟:
ugliest讀音[??gl??st],中間有兩個?缀旁,總會讀成只有一個记劈。
myths [m?θs]最后兩個輔音的發(fā)音很迷,查了一下有些說只讀一個s的音并巍,拉長一點目木,有的有說要快速地讀,一個有咬舌尖懊渡,一個沒有刽射。我連著發(fā)這兩個音,太難了剃执。
