Lesson26(2) Wanted: a large biscuit tin
They offered to pay $10 a pound for the biggest biscuit baked by a listener. The response to this competition was tremendous. Before long, biscuits of all shapes and sizes began arriving at the factory. One lady brought in a biscuit on a wheelbarrow. It weighed nearly 500 pounds. A little later, a man came along with a biscuit which occupied the whole boot of his car. All the biscuits that were sent were carefully weighed. The largest was 713 pounds. It seemed certain that this would win the prize. But just before the competition closed, a lorry arrived at the factory with a truly colossal biscuit which weighed 2400 pounds. It had been baked by a college student who had used over 1000 pounds of flour, 800 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of fat, and 400 pounds of various other ingredients. It was so heavy that a crane had to be used to remove it from the lorry. The manufacturers had to pay more money than they had anticipated, for they bought the biscuit from the student for $24000.

这个学生真牛，2400磅的饼干咋烤？混合原料都不是易事吧。这篇文章听原音感觉并不快，还挺有感情抑扬顿挫的呢，没想到自己读竟然怎么也读不出那感觉也就罢了，超出原声5秒以上是什么鬼……听上去有些赶，就这样吧。
