The Diet

Mrs Tan was worried about her weight.

“I’m much too fat,” she told her friend. “I need to lose a lot of weight but I don’t know how to do it.”

“Go and see Dr Wei,” her friend said. “He’ll tell you how to lose weight.” Mrs Tan visited Dr Wei and told him her problem.

“It isn’t difficult to lose weight,” he told her. “All you need to do is go on a diet. I’ll give you one.”

He began to write on a piece of paper.

“Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. Also eat a lot of lean meat and grains.”

When he finished, he handed her the piece of paper.

“Here you are,” he said. “Eat all those things and you’ll soon lose weight.”

A few weeks later, Mrs Tan’s friend called on her. She was surprised that Mrs Tan was even fatter than before and that she was eating a huge sandwich with chocolate cake and ice cream.

“I thought you were on a diet,” she said.

“Oh, I am,”Mrs Tan replied . “I’ve already had all the food on my diet today. Now I’m eating my dinner.”

A Holiday from School

Tommy hated school and was always looking for excuses not to go.

If he sneezed, he asked his mother to write a note saying he had a cold.

If he had a headache, he asked his mother to take him to the doctor during school hours.

He spent more time at home than he did at school.

On the days that he did go to school, he

looked for excuses to come home early.

One day he came home from school in the middle of the morning.

His father was surprised.

“You’re home early,”he said.“Is the school closed today?”

“No, Dad,” Tommy said. “It’s open. I came home early.”

“How did you do that?” his father asked him. “What did you say to the teacher?”

“I told her that I had a new baby brother and that I had to come home and help you.”

“But your mother has had twins,”his father said, “a boy and a girl. You’ve got a baby brother and a baby sister.”

“Yes, I know, Dad,” Tommy said.“I’m saving up my baby sister for next week.”
