Mrs. Brown was very fat. Her husband(丈夫) thought she should go on a diet, and he made her not eat meat or cakes.
One morning, Mrs. Brown made a nice cake for her husband, and he ate half (一半) of it. After he went out, Mrs. Brown cut a very small piece of the cake and ate it. It was very delicious. Then she cut a bigger piece and ate it, too. In a few minutes she ate up the cake. “My husband is going to be very angry, ” she thought. “What should I do?” She made another cake very quickly, ate half of it, and put the other half on the table. Mr. Brown came back later. When he saw the half of the cake on the table, he was very happy.
