--- Lesson 51 Reward for virtue[00:00:01]

--- First listen and then answer the question.[00:00:07]

--- Why did Hugh's diet not work?[00:00:12]

My friend, Hugh, has always been fat, but things got so bad recently that he decided to go on a diet.[00:00:18]

He began his diet a week ago.[00:00:29]

First of all, he wrote out a long list of all the foods which were forbidden.[00:00:32]

The list included most of the things Hugh loves: butter, potatoes, rice, beer, milk, chocolate, and sweets.[00:00:39]

Yesterday I paid him a visit. I rang the bell and was not surprised to see that Hugh was still as fat as ever.[00:00:51]

He led me into his room and hurriedly hid a large parcel under his desk.[00:01:02]

It was obvious that he was very embarrassed.[00:01:10]

When I asked him what he was doing, he smiled guiltily and then put the parcel on the desk.[00:01:14]

He explained that his diet was so strict that he had to reward himself occasionally.[00:01:22]

Then he showed me the contents of the parcel.[00:01:30]

It contained five large bars of chocolate and three bags of sweets![00:01:34]
