The body of one statue was found among remains dating from the 15th century B. C. Its missing head happened to be among remains of the fifth century B. C. This head must have been found in Classical times and carefully preserved. It was very old and precious even then. When the archaeologists reconstructed the fragments, they were amazed to find that the goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman. She stood three feet high and her hands rested on her hips.

She was wearing a full-length skirt which swept the ground. Despite her great age, she was very graceful indeed, but, so far, the archaeologists have been unable to discover her identity.

这篇文章中的音标大多都是我认识的，只不过有些词的重音部分需要我多加注意并练习。

同时，最近在读新概念三的文章时，发现音频貌似都有语速比较快，连读变多的迹象。

可能确实还是要与新二区分吧，所以最近在读时确实感觉需要多费些功夫。

练习感悟：
