（单词翻译:单击）

Two elderly gentlemen were talking.

The first one boasted¹. "Why just yesterday a pretty college girl said she'd be interested in dating me. But to be perfectly² honest, I don't quite understand it."

"Well," said his friend, "you have to remember that nowadays women are more aggressive. They don't mind being the one to ask."

"No, I don't think it's that."

"Well, maybe you remind her of her father."

"No, it's not that either. It's just that she also mentioned something about carbon 14."
