【参考译文】
在中国问年龄是非常普遍的,但是在西方国家这种问题一般都被认为是不礼貌的,特别是对于女性来说,如果提出这个问题的是男性,则显得更为不礼貌。
然而,问小孩子的年龄是很正常的,而且有些大人也不介意被问到。事实上,有些年长一些的人非常乐意显露出他们的年龄,特别是他们觉得自己看起来比实际年龄要年轻的时候。然而,直接问“你多少岁了?”是不太明智的。如果他们想谈论他们的年龄,让别人来赞美他们看起来多么年轻的话,他们会自己提出这个话题,并让其他人来猜猜他们的年龄。这种情况下,就可以自由地谈论年龄问题。通常情况下他们希望因为显得年轻而受到赞美,而不是被告知他们看起来很老。
虽然西方人并不直接问别人的年龄,但是这并不意味着他们对年龄不感兴趣。他们或许会通过其他人了解信息,或者间接提到这个话题。有时候讨论教育背景或者工作年限都能提供一些和年龄有关的信息,但是有时情况并非如此。
