How Old Are You?

How Old Are You? One day , some friends were talking. They were talking about how old they were. James said, " I am seven years old. My brother is older. He is twice as old as me, How old is my brother?" " That's easy, " said Ellen. " You are seven. He is twice as old as you. So, your brother is seven plus seven. He is fourteen years old. " Then Jane said, " I am eight. I have a baby sister. She is half my age. How old is my sister?" " That so easy! " yelled James. " She is half of eitht. So , your sister is four years old. " Chris was thinking hard. There was something on his mind. Then, he asked, " How old is a dinosaur?" " A diosaur?! " said the puzzled children.

你几岁了 有一天，小伙伴们在一起聊天。他们聊天的内容是关于他们的年龄。 詹姆士说：“我今年7岁了，我哥哥比我大一些。他的年龄是我的一倍，他几岁了？” “这个太容易了。”艾伦说。“你今年7岁，他比你大一倍，所以，你哥哥的年龄是7加上7 ，他今年14岁了。” 然后简说：“我今年8岁了。我有一个小妹妹。她的年龄是我的一半，请问她几岁了？” “这个太容易了。”詹姆斯喊道：“她的年龄是8的一半，所以你妹妹的年龄是4岁。” 克瑞斯正在沉思。有个问题一直在他的脑中盘旋。然后，他问：“你们说，一只恐龙有几岁？” “恐龙？”这个问题可把孩子们难住了。

" Yes. How old is a dinosaur?" said Chris again. The children thought really hard. " A dinosaur is old--- very old, " said Ellen. " A dinosaur is millions of years old. A dinosaur is old, old, old! " The children laughed. James said. " A dinosaur is older than all of us combined! "

“是的，一只恐龙能有多少岁？”克瑞斯再次提出问题。 孩子们很努力地在思考这个问题。 “恐龙的年龄一定，很老，很老。”艾伦说。“一只恐龙恐怕得有上百万年的历史。恐龙的年龄非常非常非常老。” 孩子们都笑了。詹姆士说：“一只恐龙的年龄比我们所有人加在一起都要老呢。！”
