Frances was blowing bubbles in her milk. There was only a little milk left,so the bubbles weren't going over the sides of the glass. But it drove Aunt Augusta mad.
"Don't act like a baby," said Aunt Augusta impatiently. Her words made Frances feel small. Frances bit her lower lip,watching the last bubble pop in her glass.
Something kept popping into Frances' mind—what had happened the morning before. Frances had been dancing in a circle with her two younger sisters Grace and Ella. Just then,her friend Julie came along. "You'd better act your age," said Julie.
Frances' face turned pink at once. She looked down on the ground,avoiding looking at Grace. Julie's words burned in her ears,making her feel like she'd done something wrong just for having fun. And finally without saying another word,Frances went with Julie to join their friends,quietly stepping to the back of the group.
The next day was Saturday and it was time to visit grandparents. Frances took a long and deep breath before she finally managed to enter her grandparents' house since Aunt Augusta would be there as well. The front door suddenly opened as Frances stepped inside,her heart pounding like a drumroll before the school play.
Grandma was singing rhymes with Grace. Grandpa was dancing with Ella. At the dinner,Frances felt a little better after having some of her favourite food. Then Aunt Augusta started talking about her fights with her next-door neighbour. "...and this morning I found his dog burying(埋)a bone right in the middle of my flower bed!!" she said. "I dug up the bone,wrapped it with shiny paper,and put it in that man's mailbox."
"Oh,Augusta," said Grandma,"you should learn to act your age." Aunt Augusta managed a smile and said,"I guess I should." Frances started to laugh as if a weight had lifted off her.
On Sunday,Frances was playing hopscotch(跳房子)with Grace when Julie walked by. "You still play a baby game like this?" asked Julie.
"Yes,I do," said Frances,her eyes shining with quiet confidence. As she balanced on one foot,hopscotch chalk dust stuck on her sneakers. After watching for a while,Julie said," ▲ "

(D)
弗朗西丝正在她的牛奶里吹泡泡。只剩下一点牛奶了,所以泡泡不会从玻璃杯的边缘溢出来。但这让奥古斯塔阿姨很生气。
“别表现得像个婴儿,”奥古斯塔阿姨不耐烦地说。她的话让弗朗西丝觉得自己很渺小。弗朗西丝咬着下唇,看着杯子里最后一个泡泡破掉。
有件事不断浮现在弗朗西丝的脑海里——前一天早上发生的事。弗朗西丝一直和她的两个妹妹格蕾丝和埃拉围成一圈跳舞。就在这时,她的朋友朱莉走了过来。“你最好表现得符合你的年龄,”朱莉说。
弗朗西丝的脸立刻变红了。她低头看着地面,避免看格蕾丝。朱莉的话在她耳边回响,让她觉得自己只是为了好玩就做错了什么。最后,弗朗西丝没再说一句话,就和朱莉一起去和她们的朋友会合了,她悄悄地走到人群的后面。
第二天是星期六,是去看望祖父母的时候了。弗朗西丝深吸了一口气,终于走进了祖父母的家,因为奥古斯塔阿姨也会在那里。弗朗西丝走进去时,前门突然打开了,她的心跳得像学校演出前的鼓点一样。
奶奶正在和格蕾丝唱儿歌。爷爷正在和埃拉跳舞。晚餐时,弗朗西丝吃了一些她最喜欢的食物后,感觉好了一点。然后奥古斯塔阿姨开始谈论她和隔壁邻居的争吵。“……今天早上我发现他的狗把一根骨头埋在我的花坛正中间!!”她说。“我挖出了骨头,用闪亮的纸包起来,然后把它放进了那个人的邮箱里。”
“哦,奥古斯塔,”奶奶说,“你应该表现得符合你的年龄。”奥古斯塔阿姨勉强笑了笑,说:“我想我应该(这样做)。”弗朗西丝开始笑起来,仿佛卸下了一个重担。
星期天,弗朗西丝正在和格蕾丝玩跳房子,朱莉从旁边走过。“你还在玩这种小孩子的游戏吗?”朱莉问。
“是的,我在玩,”弗朗西丝说,她的眼睛里闪烁着平静的自信。当她单脚保持平衡时,跳房子的粉笔灰粘在了她的运动鞋上。看了一会儿后,朱莉说:“▲”
