[00:07.400]--- First listen and then answer the question.
[00:13.440]--- Why did Jenny want to leave the wedding reception?
[00:19.240]Jeremy Hampden has a large circle of friends and is very popular at parties.
[00:26.320]Everybody admires him for his great sense of humour -- everybody,that is, except his six-year-old daughter, Jenny.
[00:37.160]Recently,one of Jeremy's closest friends asked him to make a speech at a wedding reception.
[00:45.120]This is the sort of thing that Jeremy loves.
[00:49.080]He prepared the speech carefully and went to the wedding with Jenny.
[00:55.080]he had included a large number of funny stories in the speech and, of course, it was a great success.
[01:03.280]As soon as he had finished, Jenny told him she wanted to go home.
[01:09.880]Jeremy was a little disappointed by this but he did as his daughter asked.
[01:16.240]On the way home, he asked Jenny if she had enjoyed the speech.
[01:22.520]To his surprise, she said she hadn't.
[01:27.240]Jeremy asked her why this was so and she told him that she did not like to see so many people laughing at him!
