Day10—— Caring for an Aging Population
Everywhere in the world, people are living longer. Studies show the average age of the human population is rising.
【在世界的任何地方,人们都活得更长。研究表明,人类的平均年龄正在上升。】
By the year 2050, an estimated two billion people will be aged 60 or older. And the number of people 80 years or older will have almost quadrupled to 395 million. That is the latest number from the United Nations' World Health Organization.
【到2050年,估计将有20亿人年龄在60岁或以上。80岁或以上的人的数量将增加近3倍,达到3.95亿人。这是来自联合国世界卫生组织的最新数据。】
The WHO says governments must prepare now to deal with an increasingly aging world. As people age, they may develop long-term health problems. These disorders may affect their quality of life and create problems for society and health care systems.
【世界卫生组织说,各国政府现在必须做好准备,应对日益老龄化的世界。随着年龄的增长,他们可能会出现长期的健康问题。这些障碍可能影响他们的生活质量,并给社会和卫生保健系统带来问题。】
Caring for an aging population takes both time and money. The responsibility of caring for an older person often falls on family members. And this can create difficulties.
【照顾人口老龄化既需要时间,也需要金钱。照顾老人的责任往往落在家庭成员身上。这可能会造成困难。】
The advice of the WHO health experts is simple: take good care of your health. Health experts say people should treat health problems quickly. People should not smoke or drink too much alcohol. The WHO also advises people to get more exercise, eat healthy food and get enough sleep.These activities will help to keep you healthy and independent later in life.
【世卫组织卫生专家的建议很简单:好好照顾自己的健康。健康专家说,人们应该迅速治疗健康问题。人们不应该吸烟或喝太多的酒。世卫组织还建议人们多做运动,吃健康食品,获得充足的睡眠。这些活动将有助于你在以后的生活中保持健康和独立。】
