A long time ago, there was a seed(種子) and because he was only a seed, nobody noticed him. Thus, feeling inferior(低等的), the seed gave no importance to his existence(存在).Then one day, a wind picked him up and threw him on an open field under the sun. Later, he was given rain.Years later he saw a traveler sitting by his side. “Thank God for this. I really need some rest,” he heard the traveler say.“What are you talking about?” the seed quickly asked. He thought the man was making fun of him. No one ever spoke to him like that.

“Who just spoke?” the shocked man asked.“It is me. A seed.” “A seed?” The man looked at the big tree. “Are you joking? You are not a seed. You are a big tree!”

“Really?”

“Yes! Why do you think people come here?”

What do they come here for?”

“To feel your shade(樹(shù)蔭)! Don’t tell me you didn’t know you had grown over time.”

The traveler’s words brought him pride.

The seed thought and smiled for the first time in his life. The years of torture(折磨) by the sun and the rain finally helped him grow up.

“Oh! That means I’m not a little seed anymore! I was actually born to make people feel comfortable. Wow! That’s great.

Try reading the following sentences as fast as you can. “She sells seashells by the seashore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I’m sure she sells seashore shells.”

Not very easy, was it? What you’ve just read is called a tongue twister (繞口令). It is an exercise made up of sounds that are hard to pronounce in order to help people pronounce words faster and more correctly. Try the next example.

“Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers? If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?”

Tongue twisters usually do not have much meaning. They are just designed to improve people’s ability to pronounce words. Although they may be very difficult, these exercises are very important to people who are trying to speak English correctly. This is because tongue twisters help people to tell the differences between similar sounds.

So if you wish to pronounce words more smoothly(順利地,流利地), you’d better try picking out some tongue twisters and practising them.

1. Tongue twisters are helpful in improving ______ skills.

A. listeningB. writing

C. pronunciationD. communication

2.The first tongue twister is hard because ______.

A. it is very boringto read

B. it teaches us a lot of knowledge
