Marty is five years old, and he is the baby of the family.
His brother Ralph likes playing basketball. "Can I play, too?" asks Marty.
"No, Marty. The basket is too high for you, and the ball is too big for your baby hands, "says Ralph.
"I'm not a baby," Marty says. "I'm 115 cm!"
Then Marty sees his sister Cindy tidying her bike. She will(将) go to the bookstore.
"Can I ride to the store, too?" asks Marty.
"No, the store is too far. And your baby bike is too slow. "
"I'm not a baby," Marty says. "I'm nearly(将近)six. "
"Six?" says Cindy. "You just had your fifth birthday last Friday!"
Marty starts to cry. "Why do you cry, dear?" asks Marty's mother.
"I'm too young to do anything. I don't want to be the last child. "
His mother pats(轻拍)her belly(肚子)and says. "We will have the fourth child. And that is to say, you'll be a big brother. "
"But, I'm too small to be a big brother," Marty says. "I'm just a baby!"
