A lot of people don’t want to talk about their age, especially (尤其是) women over 30. The thought of growing older is a painful ( 痛苦的) one and most of us, if possible, would like to have nothing to do with it. However, getting older is a thing that happens to all of us. As a result, many people work hard to keep young. So the last thing they want is for someone to ask the question, "How old are you?"
People may answer this question like: "How old do you think I am?" "30 something. I’m in my thirties. Let’s just leave it at that." "I can’t remember." "Oh, don’t ask me that." "A lot older than what I would like to be."
However, if you really want to know someone’s age, this is how you could find out the answer. First you estimate (估计) their age. Then you subtract(减去) ten years from that estimation. Certainly you will get a big smile from that person who will also say, "Wow. You are my best friend. I’m 38 already. Can you believe it?" You, of course, say, "No. I really can’t. You’re joking. You don’t look a day over 28."
If you want to ask a person’s age, you can put the question at the end of your talk.
选项
A、Right
B、Wrong
C、Doesn’t Say
答案
B
解析
这一道题目是属于对“So the last thing they want is for someone to ask the question, ‘How old are you?’”这句话的错误理解,the last thing是最不想说的意思。
