（单词翻译）

Her main duty will be welcoming visitors to the caves. Miss Calamity1 wears stilettos and describes herself as a "glamorous2 witch". She said that her old job wasn't perhaps as different to being a witch as you might imagine: "I am going to be a great witch. All it takes is a little bit of magic and a little pizzazz. It's a natural progression from my old job as an estate agent. I have been using my witching skills to sell houses for a long time." Handing over the broomstick was Jane Brenner who has been Wookey's witch for the past six years. She said:"We didn't want anyone who would scare the children. We wanted a good witch to meet and greet people and to act as an ambassador3 for the attraction. This isn't a cushy job."
