Lesson 10 Not for jazz
We have an old musical instrument. It is called a clavichord(翼琴). It was made in Germany in 1681. Our clavichord is kept in the living-room. It has belonged to our family for a long time. The instrument was bought by my grandfather many years ago. Recently it was damaged by a visitor. She tried to play jazz on it! She struck the keys too hard and two of the strings were broken. My father was shocked. Now we are not allowed to touch it. It is being repaired by a friend of my father's.

训练感悟：自我感觉目前的朗读有点效果，这种效果来源于两个方面，一是感觉和英语的联系加深了，特别是听力有点清晰，同事感觉朗读得也更顺口了。
