UGLY BABY
英语课
A middle-aged 1 couple, with two beautiful daughters, decided 2 to try one last time for the son they always wanted.
Soon, the wife became pregnant, and, nine months later, delivered a baby boy. The joyful 3 father rushed to the nursery to see his new son, but was horrified 4 to find an incredibly-ugly baby.
He went to his wife and said, "I cannot possibly be the father of that hideous 5 (丑恶的） child. Look at the two beautiful daughters I fathered."
When his wife blushed（脸红）, he became suspicious, and demanded, "Have you been fooling around on me?"
His wife confessed, "Not this time."
