L43-3: Fully insured

For one agonizing moment, the dish was perched precariously on the bank of the canal, but it suddenly overbalanced and slid back into the water. The men were now obliged to try once more. This time they fixed heavy metal clamps to both sides of the dish so that they could fasten the chains. The dish now had to be lifted vertically because one edge was resting against the side of the canal. The winch was again put into operation and one of the men started up the truck. Several minutes later, the dish was again put into operation and one of the water. Water streamed in torrents over its sides with such force that it set up a huge wave in the canal. There was danger that the wave would rebound off the other side of the bank and send the dish plunging into the water again. By working at tremendous speed, the men managed to get the dish on to dry land before the wave returned.

练习感悟：

今天早起了，认认真真地把内容做完。但是不知道为什么，速度快了一些，对专业的名词抠的也不那么细，所以整体来说好像有点粗糙……

但是没所谓啦，不管怎么样，还是要坚持，并且每天都要有新的积累！
