The intro 

(Listening Comprehension)

Hello there, it's Mr.Wong here. I've got a little dirty joke for you. Well, it's not too dirty but not clean either, but it's hilarious, take my word for it! Alright, here we go:

A professor was sent to the deepest jungle of Africa to live with a primitive tribe. He spends years with them, teaching them how to read and write. One day the wife of the tribe's chief gives birth to a white child. The tribe was shocked, and the chief pulls the professor aside and says,"Look here, white man! You're the only white man we've ever seen and this woman gives birth to a white child. It does not take a genius to figure out what happened!" The professor replied, " Oh no, Chief. You're mistaken. What you have here is a natural occurrence, what we in the civilized world call an albino(白化病者)! Look at that field over there. All of the sheep are white except for one black one. Nature does this on occasion."

The chief was silent for a moment, then said, "I tell you what, you don't say anything more about the sheep and I won't say anything more about the white child." Ohh, you guys got the joke right? Oh man, it took me a second to get the joke. But you know what they say - dirty minds think alike. I'm just kidding. Okay, let's talk about the phrase of the day which is "take my word for it", check it out!
