　　One day a newspaper reporter asked him, “What is the secret (秘密) of your 3 ?”

　　Peter 4 for a few moments and then said, “I eat an unusual kind of fish.”

　　“Really?” the reporter asked. “What does that do?”

　　“It makes my brain (脑) work better,” Peter said.

　　“What kind of fish is it?” the reporter asked.

　　“Give me fifty dollars and come back tomorrow. I'll have some 5 you.”

　　The reporter agreed and returned the next day.

　　“Did you 6 the unusual fish?” she asked.

　　“Yes. It's in the kitchen.”

　　Peter opened the fridge and took out a very 7 fish.

　　“Here you are. Eat this for your dinner.”

　　The next day the reporter came to Peter's house 8 .

　　“Did you eat the fish?” Peter asked her.

　　“Yes, I cooked it. And I ate it.”

　　“Good. Do you feel 9 today?”

　　“No, I don't. And I think that fifty dollars was too much to 10 for such a small fish.”

　　“Well done!” Peter said. “You see, the fish is working. You're using your brain now.”
