二、我有個2歲的孩子

表達1：I‘ve got a son。 He is 2 years old。

表達2：I’ve got a 2-year-old son。

（2-year-old 作為形容詞使用）

表達3：I‘ve got a son。 He is a 2-year-old。

（2-year-old 作為名詞使用）

三、年齡的比較

You are the same age as me。

When I was your age

People of all ages

When you get to my age

（老年人經常對年輕人說的話）

a child of his age

at your age

the age difference：the age difference has never been a problem。

over the hill：

過了壯年，身體開始走下坡路了。As a professional football player, he is over the hill at the age of 35.

the wrong side of 50：

50多歲（不要用來描述年輕人，小心捱打）：He is on the wrong side of 50.

you don’t

look

your age

（你看起來不顯老，你看起來沒有實際年齡那麼大）

四、He is very ……for his age

當你想誇親戚家小孩非常聰明，可以說：He is very bright for his age。（就他的年齡而言，他真是聰明！）

90歲的大爺還能健步如飛，可以誇他：He is very fit for his age。

Rita 阿姨徐娘半老，風韻猶存，可以說：She looks great for her age。

14歲的小紅偷偷抹口紅，可以說：She is quite grown-up for her age。

12歲的小藍已經1米8了，可以說：He is very tall for his age。
