新视野大学英语视听说教程第二册 Unit 5 Task 2: 100 Percent Polar Bear

　　One afternoon in the Arctic, a father polar bear and his son polar bear were sitting in the snow. The son

　　turned to his father and asked, “Dad, am I 100 percent polar bear?” “Of course, son, you’re 100 percent

　　polar bear.”

　　A few minutes passed, and the bear turned to his father again and said, “Dad, tell me the truth. I can

　　take it. Am I 100 percent polar bear? No brown bear or panda bear?” “Son, I’m 100 percent polar bear and

　　your mother is 100 percent polar bear, so you’re certainly 100 percent polar bear.”

　　A few minutes passed, and the son polar bear again turned to his father and asked, “Dad, don’t worry. But

　　it’ll hurt my feelings if it’s not true. I really need to know…am I really 100 percent polar bear?”

　　Somewhat angered by this continued questioning, the father polar bear yelled at his son, “Why on earth do

　　you keep asking is you’re 100 percent polar bear?”

　　“Because I’m freezing to death out here!”
