Shares in Allergan, a pharmaceutical firm with headquarters in Dublin, fell by 15% in response to suspicion that tax-avoidance legislation would scupper its planned $160 billion merger with Pfizer, an Americandrugmaker.
The deal would be the biggest-ever “tax inversion”, in which one firm becomes a subsidiary of another in a more tax-friendly country.
Barack Obama denounced the “insidious” technique.

Scupper：使……泡湯
Tax inversion: 稅負(fù)倒置
Subsidiary：子機(jī)構(gòu)

正確的晨讀復(fù)習(xí)姿勢：首先我會先把單詞念一次；其次再把單詞組成的句子念一次。你需要做的就是：
1. 聽我的單詞，看是否能回憶地起它們的意思
2. 聽我緊接著單詞之后，念出來的句子，然后問自己是否能明白句子的意思。
3. 以上兩步都沒有問題的，說明本周的晨讀你有認(rèn)真在學(xué)習(xí)；如果以上兩步有問題, 你則需要回到每天的晨讀內(nèi)容，再多復(fù)習(xí)幾次。
這里有個小提示：千萬不要平時不打卡，就只聽周末的復(fù)習(xí)版本，因?yàn)槲业囊纛l只會覆蓋一部分的句子。
