Being Surprised

Glyn：Morning, Ellie.

Ellie：Hi, Glyn. Do you know who’s just got married^?? Old MacDonald.

Glyn：You’re joking. I can hardly believe my ears. He’s over eighty! Who’s the lovely bride?

Ellie：He’s nearly ninety. He met a woman at a church dance and I guess it was love at first sight^? for both of them. I guess they are both quite active at their church, so it was easy to meet and spend time together.

Glyn：Wow! Close to^? ninety? Are you sure? What about her?

Ellie：I’m positive. I just saw them and asked how they were doing. She is eighty-four and on her sixth marriage.

驚　訝

格林：早啊，埃莉。

埃莉：你好，格林。你知道誰剛結(jié)婚了嗎？老麥克唐納。

格林：你在開玩笑呢吧。我簡直不能相信自己的耳朵了。他都80多歲了！可愛的新娘是誰呢？

埃莉：他都快90歲了。他在教堂的舞會上認識了一個女人，我想他們兩個也算是一見鐘情吧。他們倆都挺積極參加教堂活動的，所以就很容易見面并呆在一起。

格林：喔！都快90歲了？你肯定嗎？那她呢？

埃莉：我肯定。我剛遇見他們了，并且問了一些他們的事情。她84歲了，這已經(jīng)是她第六次結(jié)婚了。

格林：她真是這樣的嗎？
