Y: My father is sixty-three.
N: Is he really? His hair is still black and he walks like a young man. So I thought he must be only
fifty-four or five.
Y: Recently he's been getting more grey hairs, but he still plays golf with us sometimes. But he gets
irritated like a child when he loses.
N: Isn't it wonderful that a father and his children can play together? Ever since he was young, my
father has been like an old man and has never done anything active.
Y: How old is he now?
N: Sixty.
Y: He is younger than my father, isn't he?
N: Yes, but he always stays home and is not in good shape like your father.
Y: You still play tennis frequently, don't you?
N: Yes, I do. But I can't move around as I did in my school days.
