Has it ever happened to you?
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.

知识笔记:
your /jʊər/
trousers /ˈtraʊzərz/
remembered /rɪˈmɛmbərd/
rescued /ˈrɛskjud/
despair /dɪˈspɛr/
mistakes /mɪsˈteɪks/
multilated /ˈmjutəˌleɪtəd/
dog /dɔg/
concerns /kənˈsɜrnz/
successful /səkˈsɛsfəl/
furniture /ˈfɜrnɪʧər/
business /ˈbɪznəs/
business这个词是前段时间见过的词,不过昨天再一次写时仍然写错了。昨天就相当于再次回顾,尽管现在不能很好地将简单常见的音标写对,但日日练习,总会让我印象越来越深刻。
练习感悟:
日事日毕。
