练习材料:
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.

练习感悟:
家里没有电脑真的好难受,好的我是在找借口~这篇文章还是一样的难读,我尝试下按照自己的理解读一下文章,排除录音朗读的影响,大概率还是因为单词的排列组合导致朗读的顺嘴的程度,就像中文有绕口令一样,英文也可以通过把比较难衔接的词进行排列组合,来进行灵活训练。
