L7(1):Mutilated ladies
Have you ever put your trousers in the washing machine and then remembered there was a large bank note in your back pocket? When you rescued your trousers, did you find the note was whiter than white?People who live in Britain needn't despair when they made mistakes like this (and a lot of people do)!Fortunately for them,the Bank of England has a team called Mutilated Ladies which deals with claims from people who fed their money to a machine or to their dog. Dogs, it seems,love to chew up money! A recent case concerns Jane Butlin whose fiancé,John, runs a successful furniture business.

L7(2):Mutilated ladies
John had very good day and put his wallet containing $3,000 into the microwave oven for safekeeping. Then he and Jane went horse-riding. When they got home, Jane cooked their dinner in the microwave oven and without realizing it, cooked her fiancé's wallet as well. Imagine their dismay when they found a beautifully-cooked wallet and notes turned to ash!John went to see his bank manager who sent the remains of wallet and the money to the special department of the Bank of England in Newcastle: the Mutilate Ladies! They examined the remains and John got all hismoney back. 'So long as there's something to identify, we will give people their money back,' said a spokeswoman for the Bank. 'Last year, we paid $1.5m on 21,000 claims.'

任务配置:L0 +L4
笔记:
1.听写错误
trousers:n. 裤子;——小学单词竟然都不会拼了
pocket:n. 衣袋; 口袋; 兜; ——拼错"
needn't:听成了need a,还以为是连读,主要还是没理解意思
despair:绝望
mutilate:v.使残废; 使残缺不全; 毁伤; 严重损毁;
fiance:n. 未婚夫;
microwave oven:微波炉;
safekeeping:n. 安全照看; 妥善保管;

2.知识点:
(1)Mutilated ladies,这是英国银行专门负责识别和鉴定残缺或被毁纸币的小组,其中的 lady是指英国纸币上印的女王头像
(2)a large bank note,面额很大的纸币,note是可数名词,超过一块就要在note后面加s
(3)Dogs, it seems,love to chew up money!
it seems是插入语,听写的时候因为没意识到这一点,一直觉得这句话很奇怪。
(4)concern 有牵涉(某人)、与…有关的意思
(5)Jane cooked their dinner in the microwave oven and without realizingit,cooked her fiance's wallet as well.
without realizing it是插入语,it指代事件
Jane cooked their dinner in the microwave oven and cooked her fiance's wallet as well.插入语可以去掉
(6)so long as只要;
练习感悟:
之前一直没意识到插入语这种成分的存在,今天听写的两处,it seems,without realizing it,听写的时候一直觉得句子成分很奇怪。
