 L2-(1): Thirteen equals one

Our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another, but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired. The big clock which used to strike the hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since. One night, however, our vicar woke up with a start: the clock was striking the hours! Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock, but the bell struck 13 times before it stopped. Armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on. In the torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognised as Bill Wilkins, our local grocer.

感悟：今天的生词不是很多，注意下加了ed的读音。这几天有点松懈了，练习量没有跟上，要反省。小子，一定要扛住，认认真真去训练，不能半途而废。
