第9章 Running Out of Time
When I discovered my aged aunt climbed over the garden fence to visit her neighbor, I asked her why she didn't take the less dangerous route down the driveway and up the street.
"Look, "came her sharp reply,"I'll be ninety-six at the end of this year and I'm running out of time. "
时间不多了
我发现老态龙钟的婶婶爬过花园栅栏去拜访邻居时,就问她为什么不选择不太危险的路径,先下车道再上街道。
“听着,”她敏捷地答道,“我年底就九十六岁了,时间不多喽。”
