Sally asked. “你为什么要那样做呢？”萨莉问。 'To make myself beautiful,' the lady answered. “为了把自己打扮漂亮啊，” She put away her compact and smiled kindly. 那位妇女答道。她放好了粉盒，慈祥地微笑着。 'But you are still ugly,' Sally said. “可是你仍然难看呀，”萨莉说。 Sally was amused, but I was very embarrassed! 萨莉感到很有趣，而我却很尴尬。 讲解 1．my four-year-old daughter，我那4岁的女儿。 four-year-old 是名词 daughter的定语。各词用连字符连在一起，构成一个复合形容词。注意在这个复合词中仅用 year，而不用复数： a thirteen-year-old girl 一个13岁的姑娘 2．… Sally was invited to a children's party. ……萨莉被邀请去参加一个儿童聚会。 这是一个被动语态的例子。在英文中，如果想避免用含混不清的词（如 someone等）作主语，常常可使用被动词态。（具体请参见本课语法部分。）被动语态由相应的be动词加上过去分词构成： It is repaired regularly. 它定期修理。 They are corrected regularly. 它们得到了定期校正。 He was met at the station this morning. 今早有人在车站接他。 3．a middle-aged lady，一位中年女士。 middle-aged是一
