How Old Am I?

我多大了
Some people grow old gracefully, while others fight and scratch the whole way.
有人优雅地老去,也有人挣扎着不愿面对岁月流逝的现实。
Judy, a friend of mine, refusing to give in to the looks of growing old, goes out and buys a new line of expensive cosmetics guaranteed to make her look years younger.
朱迪,我的一个朋友,不愿屈从于自己的容貌变老而跑去买了一整套价格不菲的据说是能使她显得年轻的新款护肤品。
After a lengthy sitting before the mirror applying the "miracle" products, she asks her husband, "Darling, honestly, if you didn't know me, what age would you say I am?"
坐在镜子前长时间地涂涂抹抹这种“神奇的”化妆品后,她问丈夫:“亲爱的,你跟我说实话,如果你不认识我,你认为我多大了?”
Looking over her carefully, he replied, "Judging from your skin, twenty; your hair, eighteen; and your figure, twenty five."
他仔细地看了看她,说:“从你的皮肤判断是20岁;从你的头发看是18岁;看身材嘛,25岁。”
"Oh, you flatterer!" she gushed. Just as she was about to tell him his reward, he stops her by saying...
“哎呀,你这个马屁精!”她嗲嗲地说。就在她要说出对他的奖赏时,他打断了她……
"WHOA, hold on there sweety!" he interrupted. "I haven't added them up yet!"
“啊啊,亲爱的,打住!”他说,“我还没把这些数字加起来呢!”
