Lesson 17 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 asked her how old she is,
she always answers,
'Darling, it must be terrible to be grown up!'

练习感悟:舌头有点打不开,发音有些不自然。练得太少吧?现在早上练一小时(包括录音),晚上复习,再在自己的打卡小群发录音。白天的时候需要再抽时间学习学习。
