我有个朋友很想减肥

A friend of mine wanted to lose some weight①lose some weight 减肥.

He tried everything. He spent a whole day eating fi sh soup only.

Then he spent another day fasting②fasting 英 ['fɑːstɪŋ] 美 ['fæstɪŋ] n. 禁食；斋戒adj. 禁食的；空腹的v. 斋戒；节制饮食（fast的ing形式）. Then he started to skip③skip 英 [skɪp] 美 [skɪp] vi. 跳跃；跳绳；遗漏；跳读vt. 跳过；遗漏n. 跳跃；跳读breakfast.Then, for an afternoon he had fruit only. Then only rice, for 12 hours.

But nothing would work. Big belly④belly 英 ['belɪ] 美 ['bɛli]n. 腹部；胃；食欲vi. 涨满；鼓起vt. 使鼓起, small arms.

"Why do you want to be skinnier?" I asked.

And then he only had salad for a day. And then a Chinese takeaway⑤takeaway 英 ['teɪkəweɪ] 美 ['tekə'we]adj. 外卖的；外吃的n. 外卖食品；外卖餐馆.

He didn't know what he wanted, he only knew what he didn't really want.

I like this quote⑥quote 英 [kwəʊt] 美 [kwot]vt. 报价；引述；举证vi. 报价；引用；引证n. 引用from Lewis Carroll.

One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree.

"I don't know." Alice answered.

"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."Hard work is just a tool. But where do you actually⑧actually 英 ['æktʃuəli] 美 ['æktʃuəli]adv. 实际上；事实上want to go?

我有个朋友很想减肥。

他尝试过很多方法，甚至一天就只喝鱼汤。

然后第二天节食，第三天开始不吃早餐，下午只吃水果，接下去时只吃米饭坚持12小时

然而，大肚子、小胳膊一直在。我曾问他为什么想变瘦。

他回答说他也不知道，只是觉得瘦更好。

接下去他一天只吃沙拉，隔天只点了份中国菜外卖。

他不知道自己想要的，但他知道自己特别不想要的。

我很喜欢出自路易斯·卡罗尔的一席话。

一天，爱丽丝走到岔路口，看到一只柴郡猫正在树上。

“我该走哪条路呢？”她问。“你想走哪条？”他反问。

“我不知道。”爱丽丝回答。

“其实选哪条都不要紧。”猫回答。努力只是工具，重要的是知道自己想要什么。
