I saw lots of surprised faces because people were told I was actually 19 years old.Im actually 19 years old, which isnt much of a problem. Im like the oldest of my friends and the shortest, which is pretty funny. Thats probably one of the reasons I fit in so well with them.I volunteered at a weekend school teaching young children. Parents always looked me up and down like “why is this 13-year-old girl teaching my child?!?!?” I guessed it was because Im also petite(娇小)，and I didnt know whether I had a childish face? Sometimes I found it funny, sometimes I found it annoying(令人气恼). But I just shrugged(耸肩)it off at last. You know, soon enough people got to know me and then realized I was not actually a 13-year-old girl.This short thing used to be a problem for me, though. I was very very small when I was younger, so kids would pick on me. When I was 12, 8-year-old girls would look down at me like “I CANT BELIEVE YOU RE TWELVE!” I had always wanted to be tallBut now that Im older, I got used to it, and I actually love itYou know, Im fun sized! 28How old is the writer now?_.A12B13C14D1929Many people felt surprised when told the writers age because they thought she _Awas certainly over 19Bshould be only 12C. was 13D. was over 1430Which of the following words cant be used to describe（描绘） the writer?_.AshortBpetiteCchildishDtall31The underlined phrase “pick on” means _.Alike very much Bhelp friendlilyCbehave to unkindly Denjoy very much32How does the writer feel when others say she is 12?_.ANot surprised BAnnoying
