12. Being Young 年轻

George and his friends went to the park. They first went on the swings. Everyone stared at them. They are already in college. They wanted to feel young again. A parent tapped George on the shoulder. It was a mother. She asked George to get off. George asked, "Why?" "Because my little girl wants to go on," she replied. George turned to the side. There was a young girl. She was about 10 years old. George felt bad. He got off the swing. "Here you go, kid." George said. His friends laughed at him. George went on the slide. He felt young on the slide.

乔治和他的朋友去公园了。他们先去荡秋千。每个人都盯着他们。他们已经上大学了。他们想再次感到年轻。一位家长拍了拍乔治的肩膀。那是一位母亲。她让乔治下车。乔治问：“为什么？”“因为我的小女儿想继续，”她回答说。乔治转向一边。有一个年轻的女孩。她大约10岁。乔治感到很难过。他下了秋千。“给你，孩子。”乔治说。他的朋友们嘲笑他。乔治滑上了滑梯。他在滑梯上感到年轻。
