My friend, Hugh, has always been fat, but things got so bad recently that 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 the foods which were forbidden. The list included most of the things Hugh loves: butter, potatoes, rice, beer, milk, chocolate, and sweets. Yesterday I paid him a visit. I rang the bell and was not surprised to see that Hugh was still as fat as ever. He 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 him 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 reward himself occasionally. Then he showed me the contents of the parcel. It contained five large bars of chocolate and three bags of sweets!

朋友休一直很胖，最近胖得实在厉害，终于决定节食。他从一星期前开始控制饮食。 他先列了一张长长的禁食清单，几乎都是自己爱吃的：黄油、土豆、米饭、啤酒、牛奶、巧克力，还有糖果。 昨天我去看他，按了门铃。见他还和以前一样胖，我一点也不意外。 他领我进屋，匆匆把一个大包裹藏到桌子底下，显然很尴尬。 我问他在干什么，他心虚地笑了笑，把包裹放到桌上，解释说，这次节食实在太严格，自己偶尔也得犒劳一下自己。 随后，他给我看包裹里的东西：五大块巧克力，外加三袋糖果！
学完这一课
先沿这条线复述《对美德的奖赏》：开始下决心节食 → 列出一长串禁食清单 → 一周后仍然一样胖 → 慌忙藏起包裹 → 拿奖励作解释 → 奖励全是巧克力和糖。再借一个结构讲自己的事：给本课人物的一种强烈状态补出结果，再换成自己的真实经历。
