kyra 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!
} Washing machine:
洗衣机。说得更多的是：
laundry machine
laundry detergent
洗衣粉
do laundry
洗衣服
} chew :
嚼的意思
Here, take this pill, don‘t chew it.
这句话的意思是，这个药不要嚼
} A recent case concerns Jane Butlin whose fiancé, John, runs a successful furniture business. John had a very good day and put his wallet containing $3,000 into the microwave oven for safekeeping. Then he and Jane went horse-riding.
} Concern:
This doesn’t concern you.
表示跟谁无关，这句话是最熟悉的。concern 是担心，关心的意思，“this”不会引起你的担心，所以跟你无关。这句话是这样来的。
It’s none of your business.
这句话不太礼貌，这句话也是大家比较熟悉的。
What you do is nobody’s business.
你干什么跟别人无关。这是比较平淡的一句话。
It’s nothing to do with you.
As far as my fiancé is concerned, I can do no wrong. And vise verse.
as far as…concerned: 就……来讲。这句话的意思是，对我的未婚妻来说，我做什么都不会做，反过来也一样。就是说反过来说，她做什么我都觉得特别好。
} 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!
}
Wallet →
purse →
}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 Mutilated Ladies! They examined the remains and John got all his money 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.
} So long as :
as long as you’re under my roof you’re gonna live by my rules.
so long as 与 as long as 意思是一样的。so long as不是很常见，as long as比较常见。这句话是这样的意思：
只要你在我的屋檐下，你就要按我的规则做事。
} Identify :
这个词是来自identity身份，identify是动词，就是找出，确认身份的意思。在国外的教科书，或者考试的时候你会看到这个词，可以说是比较经常地看到这个词。
The goal is to identify sets that have even numbers.
这道题的目的是找到含有偶数的集合。sets集合，中学学数学的时候常看到这个词，那么这里指什么样的集合？是含有偶数的集合，even numbers 偶数。
