今天为大家带来雅思口语Part3话题范文:old people。希望为大家提供的内容能够为准备雅思口语的同学带来一定的帮助。
1. At what age are people considered to be "old" in China?
每个人的想法不同,我的是……
That is really a big question. People’s views much be divided on this. From my perspective, ...
按时间区分:以前觉得70+算老人,现在这个定义慢慢延后,因为人们寿命更长,更多的老年人仍旧发挥余热,为社会做出了很多的贡献
The easiest way to divide the old from all is to judge according to the chronological age. In the past, people over 70s are considered to be old, but this line has beenshifted gradually with the time goes by, because people nowadays live much longer than before. Many older people can still make great contribution to the society, so broadly speaking, I think, those over 80s, or those who are no longer physically capable can beregarded as just entering the twilight life.
生理年龄不再是唯一的衡量标准,一个人的心理年龄和本身的身体素质更加重要
The biological age has no longer been the only judgment, because the real psychological age and the physical fitness differ from person to person, and they seem to be moreimportant for others to decide whether the person is qualified as “old” or not.
大体而言,50岁以上就感觉在慢慢变老,的却,那个时候的身体和心理逐渐在走下坡路
Broadly speaking, when people are over their 50s, they will gradually feel that they are getting older. Indeed, the physical and mental condition do decrease year by year, with a higher possibility of suffering from diseases and less tolerant and acceptable todifferent opinions and new ideas.
一个人失去了对人生的热情,其实就已经老了。所有常常会用老来形容一个没有激情的人,而不是形容一个人的年龄
I firmly believe that being “old” is simply connected with the state of mind. If one loses passion for life, they are indeed becoming old. This is why, in China, we tend to describe someone who show very little enthusiasm to life as an old bookish man.
2. Why do old people today live longer than in the past?
医疗水平变高
The advance in medical service means that more diseases become curable and can be easily diagnosed at an early age. Senile diseases such as diabetes and hypertension are less common among the older pensioner and most of them can even live very long with the illness being uncured permanently.
营养更丰富
Food nutrition has also been largely improved, not only because of the development infarming skills but also because of the fertilizers that are used to ensure a higher proportion of diverse types of vitamins being reserved during the planting process within a less time period.
人们更重视运动
Another important factor is the widespread scientific reports that emphasize the positive effects of regular exercise on people’s physical fitness, so most of the modern people become more aware of the importance of doing sports and many older people, with more time available after retirement, participate actively in various sorts of sports.
定期的健康检查,很多问题可以及早被发现
Besides, regular health check has been required by most companies nowadays in China and younger people also arrange this activity for their aging parents. It is now fair to say that many potential health hazards can be easily found in advance and therefore be avoided eventually.
更多对于老龄化问题的关注,使得很多福利机构和实施被建造
More attention has been paid for the aging society, so government and private charitygroups have set up many nursing house and other accessible facilities for the senior citizens, which means generally, a higher living standard can be expected and people then live much longer under a better welfare system.
3. What are some things a person can do to help them live longer?
多运动
An obvious answer is to take part in more outdoor activities because it can enhance the immune system and further build up the physical fitness. Especially in an outdoor atmosphere, we can breathe more fresh air and speed up the process of metabolism.
定期的健康检查
Regular health check should be taken on a, at least, yearly basis. So that diseases can be found well before it poses any threat to our body and our mind.
多和家人朋友沟通,减轻压力
Also, I would suggest people to frequently talk to their friends and family members, particularly on the occasion of feeling stressful or facing difficulties. By expressing one’s emotion feely, one can actually easily release the negative emotion and find hope in life, which seems to be more important than just being healthy physically.
适当调整目标,不要太逼自己
Even though the modern life has set higher demand for most people, in order to livelonger, people should constantly adjust their goals to keep pace with their ability at the time. Pushing oneself too much is definitely detrimental to the expansion of longevity.
选择自己喜欢的事情,而不是做一些让自己痛苦的事情
In any stage of one’s life, people should choose to participate in the things that interest them most instead of those impose heavy mental pressure and make them hopeless all the time.
少看电视,多读书
A simple solution could be the reduction of TV time and Internet addiction and to spend more time on reading books or other mentally healthy activities, such as playing chess or listening to the music.
4. Are the attitudes of young people today towards old people the same as they used to be, years ago?
没变:
非常尊重年长者,愿意和他们交流
I personally didn't see any change in recent decade. Younger people are still very respectful and willing to talk and receive suggestions from the older ones.
觉得老年人是需要关怀的群里,愿意去支持帮助他们
As for me, I usually believe that the elderly are more vulnerable than the younger people, so I’m always willing to help them and I think this attitude is shared by most youngsters.
有变化:
以前更加尊重,现在变得比较冷漠,比如老人摔跤了
Unfortunately, we become less respectful of the older people, and almost indifferent to their request. For example, when an older person fall down on the street, very few people, especially the youth, will step up and give a hand immediately, because we worry about being defrauded of money by them, since similar occasions did happen in the past when some unlawful old people commit crime like this.
以前觉得老人都是经验丰富的,现在可能觉得他们只不过在倚老卖老
In previous time, we believe that older people have very rich experience, but the world is changing too fast. The wisdom they have become less practical in the modern-day society. So we are less likely to rely on them.
有些老年人确实比较保守纠结,年轻人可能会比较不喜欢和年长者相处
Some of the older generation are indeed more conservative, so younger people, who areinterested in making changes and trying new things, are not very much willing to spend time with the aged.
看每个人的性格:
有些比较排斥长着,有些则更看重内涵,而不是一个人的年龄
Generally, it depends on the personality of each individual. Some may only want to communicate with people in similar age, others value the intrinsic character more, rather than the age.
