L52-1: Mud is mud
My cousin, Harry, keeps a large curiously shaped bottle on permanent display in his study.
Despite the fact that the bottle is tinted a delicate shade of green,
an observant visitor would soon notice that it is filled with what looks like a thick greyish substance.
If you were to ask Harry what was in the bottle,
he would tell you that it contained perfumed mud.
If you expressed doubt or surprise,
he would immediately invite you to smell it and then to rub some into your skin.
This brief experiment would dispel any further doubts you might have.
The bottle really does contain perfumed mud.
How Harry came into the possession of this outlandish stuff makes an interesting story which he is fond of relating.
Furthermore,
the acquisition of this bottle curedhim of a bad habit he had been developing for years.
应用配置：L0+L4

练习感悟：用时约50分钟。尝试着先通读了一遍整个L52，之后再看单词解释，用另一种方式尝试着去理解和朗读，效果还不错。继续努力。
