6.Yesterday,our teacher asked us when a man could be regarded as an old man.David said people with wrinkles(皱纹)could be called old people.(31)B,Mary didn't agree,for some people may gain wrinkles at an earlier age because of their (32)C work.Then Lily expressed her idea that those reaching their 60s or more could be called old people.This time,Emily expressed her doubt and said some old people might still be (33)A and trying to pursue(追求)their dreams,which makes them appear young.The class was over and we still didn't reach any conclusion,so the teacher asked us to (34)Cabout it after class.
The question has reminded me of the saying of J.Barrymore that a man isn't old as long as he seeks (35)B.
My grandma is (36)D a woman who pursues her dream even when she's 70.She has kept her dream of being a painter since she was a little child.However,because her family was(37)B,she had to raise money to support her family.Though she has never (38)Aher dream,she could hardly find any time to realize it.
Finally,chances came when she retired from her work.She began (39)Bher painting lessons though she had all-white hair and lots of wrinkles.(40)A,I didn't support her idea of attending school (41)C so old an age,but after seeing her painting (42)C,I began feeling it a good (43)D.
So if we have our dreams and (44)Bafter them,we aren't old.It's when we don't know what we want and let regret be the main point of our lives that we can finally be regarded as the (45)D.
