L40-1 Who’s who
The student hid in an archway nearby where he could watch and hear everything that went on.
Sure enough,
a policeman arrived on the scene and politely asked the workmen to go away.
When he received a very rude reply from one of the workmen,
he threatened to remove them by force.
The workmen told him to do as he pleased and the policeman telephoned for help.
Shortly afterwards,
four more policemen arrived and remonstrated with the workmen.
As the men refused to stop working,
the police attempted to seize the pneumatic drill.
The workmen struggled fiercely and one of them lost his temper.
He threatened to call the police.
At this,
the police pointed out ironically that this would hardly be necessary as the men were already under arrest.
Pretending to speak seriously,
one of the workmen asked if he might make a telephone call before being taken to the station. Permission was granted and a policeman accompanied him to a pay phone.
Only when he saw that the man was actually telephoning the police did he realize that they had all been the victims of a hoax.

练习感悟：这篇文章后半段难度不大，没有太多生词，读起来也比较顺畅。最后一个单词victim少读了s，再次重新录制，又经过了几遍录好后回听，还是少了。没有再修改，留了个小遗憾。以整体的完整性为主，尽量满足细节部分的呈现。
