The diet
Mrs. Tan is worried about her weight (体重), so she goes to see a doctor. “Oh, I’m too fat. I need to lose a lot of weight.” “It isn’t difficult to lose weight (减肥),” The doctor says. “All you need to do is go on a diet (节食). I’ll give you one.” The doctor takes out a piece of paper and writes“ Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. Also, eat a lot of lean meat and grains.” The doctor hands the paper to Mrs. Tan. “Eat all those things and you’ll soon lose weight.”
A few weeks later, Mrs. Tan’s friend visits her. Her friend is surprised to see that Mrs. Tan is even fatter than before and that she is eating a huge sandwich with chocolate cake and ice cream.
“I thought you were on a diet,” her friend says.
“Oh, I am,” Mrs. Tan answers. “I’ve already had all the food on my diet today. Now I’m having my dinner.”
