She sat by the window and asked questions about everything she saw. Suddenly, a middle-aged lady sat opposite Sally. “Hello, little girl,” she said. Sally didn’t answer at first but looked at her curiously. The lady was dressed $\in a$ blue coat and a large $\hat$ . The train $\left$ the station and the lady took out a makeup bag and began to put on some makeup on her face.
