After losing twenty early Sunday mornings and gaining 4000 kuai, I've reached the day of my last tutoring session. During the last 5 minutes, my student told me several jokes (answers at the end of this post):

1. Why does news come from every part of the world?
2. What day of the week is the best for eating fried foods?
3. Heat is swifter than cold. Why?

Since all of the jokes were based on wordplay and I happened to be wearing my trusty Ithaca t-shirt, I reciprocated by explaining why Ithaca is Gorges.

The a-ha! moment when he understood gorges=gorgeous was priceless.
