Lesson26(2) Wanted: a large biscuit tin
They offered to pay $10 a pound for the biggest biscuit baked by a listener. The response to this competition was tremendous. Before long, biscuits of all shapes and sizes began arriving at the factory. One lady brought in a biscuit on a wheelbarrow. It weighed nearly 500 pounds. A little later, a man came along with a biscuit which occupied the whole boot of his car. All the biscuits that were sent were carefully weighed. The largest was 713 pounds. It seemed certain that this would win the prize. But just before the competition closed, a lorry arrived at the factory with a truly colossal biscuit which weighed 2400 pounds. It had been baked by a college student who had used over 1000 pounds of flour, 800 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of fat, and 400 pounds of various other ingredients. It was so heavy that a crane had to be used to remove it from the lorry. The manufacturers had to pay more money than they had anticipated, for they bought the biscuit from the student for $24000.

練習感悟:1.坐地鐵聽播音員講英文很意外居然聽懂、跟讀洽沟，今天看到一句話說這在心理學上叫記憶背景和原始背景相似性越高，提取內容就越準確踪区。原來源于刻意練習的熟練度缎岗，重復的次數(shù)多了，肌肉形成記憶反而記住了眷细。
另外溪椎，需要注意的是很容易陷入自嗨和自欺欺人模式沼侣。
