Lesson 51 Award for virtue
First listen and then answer the question.
Why did Hue's diet not work?
My friend Hue had always been fat.
But things got so bad recently as he decided to go on a diet.
He began his diet a week ago.
First of all, he wrote out a long list of all foods which were forbidden,
the list included most of the things Hue loves, butter, potatos[potatoes], rice, beer, milk, choclate[chocolate] and sweets.
Yesterday i paid him a visit. I rang the bell, and i was not surprised to see that Hue was still [as] fat as ever.
He let[led] me into his room and hurriedly hid a large parcel under his desk.
It was obvious that he was very embarrassed.
When i asked what he was doing, he smiled guiltily and then put the parcel on the desk.
He explained that his diet was so strict that he had to watch [reward] himself occasionly[occasionally].
Then he showed me the contents of the parcel.
It contained five large boxes[bars] of chochlate[chocolate] and a sweet bag for [three bags of] sweets.
