The intro

(Listening Comprehension)

Yo ! What's up folks ? It's Mr.Wong here. Today's word of the day is...wait a second, hold on ! I can't just jump in to today's topic without telling you a story ! OK here we go :


A young man shopping in a supermarket noticed a little old lady following him around. If he stopped, she stopped. Furthermore she kept staring at him.


She finally overtook him at the checkout, and she turned to him and said, "I hope I haven't made you feel uncomfortable, it's just that you look so much like my late son." He answered, "That's okay." "I know it's silly, but if you'd call out "Good bye, Mom" as I leave the store, it would make me feel so happy."


She then went through the checkout, and as she was on her way out of the store, the man called out, "Goodbye, mom." The little old lady waved, and smiled back at him. Pleased that he had brought a little sunshine into someone's day, he went to pay for his groceries.


"That comes to $121.85," said the clerk. "How come so much ? I only bought 5 items !" The clerk replied, "Yeah, but your mother said you'd be paying for her things, too."


Hahaha, what a smart little old lady ! Alright so today's word of the day is "ample".  Check it out !
