　　参考解析：参考译文

　　大多数人不愿意谈论年龄，尤其是对年过30的女人。想到变老是很痛苦的，我们大多数人，如果有可能的话，都不想沾它的边。不幸的是，变老是谁都不能例外的。结果，许多人竭力想永葆青春。所以，他们最不愿别人问他们： “你多大年纪了?”

　　对这个问题可以有这样几个回答： “你认为我多大了?”“30左右。我30多岁了。咱们不谈这个了吧。”“我记不得了。”“噢，别问我这个。”“比我希望的要老得多。”

　　然而，如果你很想知道某人的年龄，你也是可以打探得到的。首先，你估算下他的年龄;然后，从你的估计上减去l0岁。当然此人会冲你绽放笑容，还会说， “哇，你是我最好的朋友。我早就38岁了。你能相信吗?”你当然会回答，“不，我不相信。你在开玩笑吧。你看起来连28都不到。”
