L3-(1): An unknown goddess

Some time ago, an interesting discovery was made by archaeologists on the Aegean island of Kea. An American team explored a temple which stands in an ancient city on the promontory of Ayia Irini. The city at one time must have been prosperous, for it enjoyed a high level of civilization. Houses, often three storeys high, were built of stone. They had large rooms with beautifully decorated walls. The city was even equipped with a drainage system, for a great many clay pipes were found beneath the narrow streets.

The temple which the archaeologists explored was used as a place of worship from the 15th century B. C. until Roman times. In the most sacred room of the temple, clay fragments of 15 statues were found. Each of these represented a goddess and had, at one time, been painted.

练习感悟：

练习感觉比较好，因为发音没有因为速度被牺牲，而且这一篇练习没有很拗口的地方，但是录音时长总是超四五秒。录了N次，发现越录朗读越差，又在以质量换速度了，有时候还会读不顺。最终版本不是很好，有很多自己可感的不足。先这样，一口吃不成胖子。
