    • 3
  • but things got so bad recently that he decided to go on a diet.
    • 4
  • He began his diet a week ago.
    • 5
  • First of all,
    • 6
  • he wrote out a long list of all the foods which were forbidden.
    • 7
  • The list included most of the things Hugh loves:
    • 8
  • butter, potatoes, rice, beer, milk, chocolate, and sweets.
    • 9
  • Yesterday I paid him a visit.
    • 10
  • I rang the bell and was not surprised to see that Hugh was still as fat as ever.
    • 11
  • He led me into his room and hurriedly hid a large parcel under his desk.
    • 12
  • It was obvious that he was very embarrassed.
    • 13
  • When I asked him what he was doing,
    • 14
  • he smiled guiltily and then put the parcel on the desk.
    • 15
  • He explained that his diet was so strict that he had to reward himself occasionally.
    • 16
  • Then he showed me the contents of the parcel.
    • 17
  • It contained five large bars of chocolate and three bags of sweets!
