任务配置：L0 +L4
笔记：
1.知识点
（1）ancient myths 古代神话
（2）ever since 语气比since强，表示“从那以后一直，，主句一般用完成时
（3）even once 甚至一次（也没有）
Even 可用于加强语气用,意思是“甚至,连”
（4）背景知识：
Gorgon是希腊神话传说中的蛇发三姐妹，是海神福尔库斯的女儿。她们的头上和脖子上布满鳞甲，头发是一条条蠕动的毒蛇，长着野猪的獠牙，还有一双铁手和金翅膀。她们分别是丝西娜（Stheno）、尤瑞爱莉（Euryale）、美杜莎（Medusa），在西方传说中以丑陋闻名。Medusa是gorgon的其中之一，她把见过她的人都变成了石头。
练习感悟：
ugliest读音[ˈʌglɪɪst]，中间有两个ɪ，总会读成只有一个。
myths [mɪθs]最后两个辅音的发音很迷，查了一下有些说只读一个s的音，拉长一点，有的有说要快速地读，一个有咬舌尖，一个没有。我连着发这两个音，太难了。
