英语初级口语开心学 Lesson 1 她几岁了？
A woman was having some trouble with her heart, so she went to see the doctor. He was a new doctor, and did not know her. So he first asked some questions, and one of them was:"How old are you?"
一位妇女的心脏有问题，所以她去看医生。这是一位新医生，他对她不了解。所以他先问了一些问题，其中一个是：“你几岁了?”
"Well," she answered:"I don't remember, doctor, but I will try to think. "She thought for a minute and then said,"Yes. I remember now, doctor! When I married, I was eighteen years old, and my husband was thirty. Now my husband is sixty, I know. And that is twice thirty. So I am twice eighteen. That is thirty-six, isn't it? "
“唔，”她回答：“我不记得了，医生，但我会试着去想。”她想了一会儿说，“是的，我记起来了，医生!我结婚的时候，我是18岁，我的丈夫是30岁。现在我知道丈夫60岁了。那正好是30的两倍。所以我也是18的两倍。那就是36岁，不是吗?”
注释：
twice adv. 两次;两倍
例句：She does for us twice a week.

Accident
The river, you see, was never really safe at that time of the year- early autumn, I mean, when there is heavy rainfall. So when I heard the children had gone swimming, as they used to all spring and summer, I knew there might be an awful accident. And when they came home late without little Katie, I guessed what had happened.
