They help the police solve crimes and keep the streets safe. But that’s not all they do. They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.‎ One of the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale. She clearly doesn’t like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV throwing one into dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of a sudden, she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pick up Lola and drops her into a larger dustbin. Lola was saved fifteen hours later. And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. She was fined（罚款）£250 and was not allowed to own pets for five years.‎ Another video shows “Britain’s drunkest man”. He’s been at a party at London’s Savoy Hotel. And he’d obviously had a few too much glasses of beer. At about 2 a, m., he was kicked out for being too drunk. So, he decided to walk home. On the way, CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the roads madly… A Savoy Hotel waiter later said, “It’s amazing he didn’t hurt himself badly.”‎ ‎ Sometimes, they also record smart events .Once a British band The Get Out Clause didn’t have any money to make a music video. So, they came up with an unbelievable idea. They set up their instruments (乐器) and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then, according to the English Freedom of Information Act, they asked for a copy of all the footages(视频)，which they edited. The result is that a totally new music video was made ,and it didn’t cost them a penny.‎ Title: CCTV cameras catch action Passage outline Supporting details Usages of CCTV cameras They are almost(71) ▲ and are useful in many ways.‎ To help the police solve crimes A woman saw a lonely eat and(72) ▲ it into a big dustbin.
