　　102.Old Wives Tales
　　Connie and Willy are talking about the previous lesson.
　　C： Do you believe what they say about chili peppers？
　　W： Frankly speaking， I dont. The last time I got hurt playing soccer， my mom told me not to eat anything spicy. She said it will irritate the wound.
　　C： My mom is the same. For example， according to her， eating fish eyes is good for the eyes.
　　W： If you think thats weird， listen to this. My mom says eating pigs brains makes you smart.
　　C： Are you kidding？ Frankly speaking， I dont believe in any of these of wives tales.
　　W： I wish you would tell that to my mom. Im sick of eating pigs brains.
　　C： Poor guy！
　　W： Dont tell anyone， OK？ Or Ill never hear the end of it .
　　C： Ok. It doesnt work anyway.
　　W： What do you mean？
　　C： Im only kidding. Youre at least as smart as a pig.
