A young girl's likes 一个少女的喜好

　　A young girl was asked by her mother, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" The girl replied, "I want to be an old maid."

　　Her mother was surprised to hear that, and said, "Oh,dear, why?" The girl said, "I don't think I would like to kiss a man so many times and to tell him he handsome every time. I will get bored. I like to go shopping, so I'd rather earn money to buy things for myself."

　　一个少女的母亲问她：“你长大后想干什么呀?”少女说：“我想做个老姑娘。”

　　她的母亲听到这话感到非常惊讶。她说：“啊，亲爱的，这是为什么呀?”少女说：“我觉得我不会老是要去亲一个男人，而且每次还要说他很帅。我会感到厌倦的。我喜欢逛商店，所以我宁愿去赚钱给自己买东西。”
