L6-(1): Smash-and-grab
The expensive shops in a famous arcade near Piccadilly were just opening. At this time of the morning, the arcade was almost empty. Mr. Taylor, the owner of a jewellery shop was admiring a new window display. Two of his assistants had been working busily since eight o'clock and had only just finished. Diamond necklaces and rings had been beautifully arranged on a background of black velvet. After gazing at the display for several minutes, Mr. Taylor went back into his shop.
The silence was suddenly broken when a large car, with its headlights on and its horn blaring, roared down the arcade. It came to a stop outside the jeweller's. One man stayed at the wheel while two others with black stockings over their faces jumped out and smashed the window of the shop with iron bars.

練習(xí)感悟:
家里沒有電腦真的好難受,好的我是在找借口~這篇文章還是一樣的難讀,我嘗試下按照自己的理解讀一下文章,排除錄音朗讀的影響,大概率還是因?yàn)閱卧~的排列組合導(dǎo)致朗讀的順嘴的程度科阎,就像中文有繞口令一樣,英文也可以通過把比較難銜接的詞進(jìn)行排列組合,來進(jìn)行靈活訓(xùn)練译断。
