【Text】
The tiny village of Frinley is said to possess a 'cursed tree'. Because the tree was mentioned in a newspaper,
the number of visitors to Frinley has now increased. The tree was planted near the church fifty years ago, but it is
only in recent years that it has gained an evil reputation. It is said that if anyone touches the tree, he will have bad
luck; if he picks a leaf, he will die. Many villagers believe that the tree has already claimed a number of victims.
The vicar has been asked to have the tree cut down, but so far he has refused. He has pointed out that the tree cut
down, but so far he has refused. He has pointed out that the tree is a useful source of income, as tourists have been
coming from all parts of the country to see it. In spite of all that has been said, the tourists have been picking
leaves and cutting their names on the tree-trunk. So far, not one of them has been struck down by sudden death!
参考译文
据说弗林利这个小村里有一棵“该诅咒的树” . 就因为报上提到过这棵树, 所以现在来弗林利参观的人
越来越多. 该树是50 年前栽在教堂附近的, 但只是近几年才得到了一个坏名声. 据说, 谁要是触摸了这棵
树, 谁就会交上恶运; 如果谁摘了一片树叶, 谁就会死去. 很多村民相信此树已经害了不少人. 人们曾请求
教区的牧师叫人把树砍掉, 但他直到现在也没有同意. 他指出, 由于人们从全国各地纷纷前来参观这棵树,
它成了一个有用的财源. 尽管有上述种种说法, 但游客们还是照常摘树叶和把他们的名字刻在树干上. 然
而到目前为止, 还没有一个人暴死呢!
