伊卡莱姆的ScalersTalk第四轮新概念朗读持续力训练Day

练习材料:

L1-(2):A Puma at large

Wherever it went,

it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits.

Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes.

Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree.

The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma,

but where had it come from ?

As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country,

this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape.

The hunt went on for several weeks,

but the puma was not caught.

It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.

应用配置：L0+L4

练习感悟：第一课的第二大段，不难，朗读熟练即可。我看打卡群里已有人在昨天就把整篇课文朗读完毕，昨天我也曾想如此，但是最终没有。我觉得按照群主设定的时间和内容行事，不用急，慢慢来，持续做。收获、养成习惯才是最重要的。
