Always Young

My aunt Jennifer is an actress. She must be at least thirty-five years old. In spite of this, she often appears on the stage as a young girl. Jennifer will have to take part in a new play soon. This time, she will be a girl of seventeen. In the play, she must appear in a bright red dress and long black stockings. Last year in another play, she had to wear short socks and a bright, orange-coloured dress. If anyone ever asks her how old she is, she always answers, ‘Darling, it must be terrible to be grown up! ’ New words and expressions 生词和短语 appear v. 登场，扮演 stage n. 舞台 bright adj. 鲜艳的 stocking n. （女用）长筒袜 sock n. 短袜
