 本期内容：

Sterling1 weakened, as currency markets fretted2 that Britons might vote to leave the European Union in June. It fell against the euro, which in turn fell against the dollar and yen3; and it dipped below $1.406 to the dollar, its lowest for nearly seven years. Stockmarket investors4, however, seemed unperturbed: like other leading European indices, the FTSE 100 rose.

词义解析:

Sterling：英镑
Fret：担忧
Dip below：低于
Unperturbed：没有收到干扰
Indices：index的复数，指数
