【英语时差8,16】Professional Witch 职业巫婆

（单词翻译）

Do you ever fancy a career change? Well if you can cast spells, fly on a broomstick and have a good cackle, then you might be interested in becoming a professional witch. And if you become the Witch of Wookey Hole you could even earn a good salary. Legend has it that the haunted caves of Wookey Hole in the south of England were home to a witch who laid a curse on the local villagers, until she was turned to stone by a monk¹. These days the caves are a tourist attraction which bring in thousands of visitors a year. And they have just appointed a new witch. On Tuesday, Carole Bonahan beat over 300 applicants² with pointy hats, capes³ and hooked noses to win the £50,000-a-year (around 500,000 RMB) post as Wookey Hole's resident witch. Carole, who will now be known by her witch's name Carla Calamity⁴, will give up her job as an estate agent in order to become a full-time⁵ witch. Her main duty will be welcoming visitors to the caves. Miss Calamity wears stilettos and describes herself as a "glamorous⁶ witch". Indeed, Carla Calamity had to overcome a wide range of people from all walks of life in order to get the job. Teachers, a photographer, and even an accountant all threw their hats in the ring. So next time you feel like introducing a little magic into your life, you might want to think about a career in witching.
