Ms Green was 80, but she had a small car. And she always drove to the shop on Saturday, and bought her food，including rice, flour, her favourite cookies and butter, etc.
格林太太八十岁了，但她有一辆小轿车，且每逢星期六她总是开着这辆车去购买食品，包括大米，面粉，她最爱的饼干以及黄油等。
She did not drive fast because of her age, but she drove well and never hit anything.
因为年纪大了，格林太太车子开得太快，不过她开车技术很好，从未撞到过什么东西。
Sometimes her grandchildren said to her: "Please don't drive your car, grandmother. We can take you to the shops."
有时她的孙子孙女对她说：“奶奶，您别开车了，我们可以送您去商店。”
But the very independent old lady always said: "No,I like driving. I've driven for 50 years and I'm not going to stop now."
但这位非常独立的老太太总是说：“不，我喜欢开车。我已经开了50年了，现在我还不想撒手。”
Last Saturday after having her tank filled with 7 liters of petrol at a gas station, she drove to the Green Grocery for some pineapples and grapes.
上星期六，她在加油站加了7公升的汽油后，就开车去水果店买菠萝和葡萄。
She braked the car at the crossroad because the lights turned red, and then it could not start again.
她看见交通灯是红色就在路口刹住了车，后来车子熄火了。
The lights were green, then yellow, then red, then green again. But her car just could not start.
交通灯由绿色转为黄色，然后转为红色，又转变为绿色，可她的车子还是发动不起来。
"What am I going to do now?" She said.
“现在我该怎么办呢？”
But then a policeman came to her, and she was amused by his words: "Good morning, don't you like any of our colors today?"
这时一位警察走过来，老太太被他的话逗乐了：“早上好，今天交通灯的颜色没有一样您喜欢的吗？”
