L5-(1): The facts
Editors of newspapers and magazines often go to extremes to provide their readers with unimportant facts and statistics. Last year a journalist had been instructed by a well-known magazine to write an article on the president's palace in a new African republic. When the article arrived, the editor read the first sentence and then refused to publish it. The article began: 'Hundreds of steps lead to the high wall which surrounds the president's palace'. The editor at once sent the journalist a fax instructing him to find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wall.
The journalist immediately set out to obtain these important facts, but he took a long time to send them.

果的ScalersTalk第四轮新概念朗读持续力训练Day 105 20190120练习感悟:
自己都不忍复听的音质发出去了!撤都撤不回来,然后就这样算了。想起一句话,你做的每件事交的作业完成的作品代表的是你自己。最近几天有点压不下声音,因为练习的时候太用力了,习惯性地高声读,有点忘乎所以了。还是要坚持在朗读时用腹式发声,宁可读慢些,练习时将长一点。
