本篇文章的主题来自于一个雅思作文题目。

原题如下:In the developed world, average life expectancy is increasing. What problems will this cause for individuals and society? Suggest some measures that could be taken to reduce the impact of ageing populations.

在越来越发达的社会,预期平均寿命在不断提高。这对个人和社会分别有什么影响?探讨一下对与老龄化带来的影响有什么缓解措施。

正文如下:

Facing ageing society 越活越久会怎样

Ageing society, which means the average life expectancy is increasing, is due to technology development. It is a coming event which is certain. People will grow old slowly and die at a very high age. Then what will be different?

老龄化社会,就是人均寿命越来越长的社会,这是科技的进步,是人对自己的馈赠,是必然的。慢慢衰老,离死亡有很长的距离。这样会有什么事情发生呢?

From the aspect of making a fortune, ageing society means nowadays younger people should be trained better than before to get a job, since people already in work positions are skilled and can work for a long time.

On one hand, the so-called noble jobs are not easy to find, since the growth of white-collars’ salaries are relatively low compared to CPI. On the other hand, young people are piled in the third industries for example delivery, because the work is simple and flexible.

从创造财富的角度,现在的年轻人找工作门槛越来越高了,要接受更好的训练,因为早进入职场的人已经很熟练并且能工作很久。

所以,有两个现象很明显。一方面是年轻人所谓的“体面”工作不好找了,白领类工作的收入相对于CPI来讲并不占优势。而另一方面,年轻人反而是被汇集到做简单、灵活的体力劳动,特别是快递这一类的服务业。

Due to shortage on endowment insurance,old people start to retire later. Some old people who have bad health situation don't like this. Some old people are occupied by grandsons so even if they have retired from companies, they are still busy in household work. Some old people with good health situation enjoy regular time table and getting progressed, so they retire from work late or find a new job after retiring.

因为养老保险金的不足,老年人开始延迟退休。会有一部分体力跟不上的老人,觉得这很难受。也有一部分老人需要带孙辈,虽然在工作上退休了,生活上不退休,也很辛苦。还有一部分身体比较健康的老人,喜欢规律的生活,不断追求进步,他们会延迟退休或者退休之后再去找一份工作。

The good example is that Alibaba is offering highly-paid job vacancies for people who are over 60 years old. The requirement is quite high, including knowing old people’s consuming sentiment and using mobile apps familiarly and so on. So if you are good at making money, ageing is not a problem.

一个很典型的例子就是,阿里巴巴发出高薪招聘,只招六十岁以上的员工,要求是相当得高,包括了解老年人的消费主张,熟练运用手机APP等等。所以,只要你挣钱能力优秀,年龄不是问题。

Then, what can we do?

As for old people, they are sort of lucky since they’ve already had or will soon have retirement pay. So the most important thing should be have an open mind and embrace the new changing world. Being independent and doing some meaningful things to make their life more colorful.

As for young people (including middle-aged), they must save money for their retirement and children’s education fees. If no children, they should prepare even more. I have seen a Korean TV series called* Dear My Friends* which tells different ways to spend time when people are old. it can enlighten young people a lot. Young people are under big pressure but they still have time and energy.

So, what should everybody do no matter you are young or old? I suppose it should be a person with resources, power and plans. Ageing society is probably becoming a society that encourages these people and makes huge difference between individuals.

那,面对这种现实,我们有什么可以做的吗?

对于年长者而言,他们其实有一点幸运,已经或者即将领到退休金。所以最重要的事情变成拥有开放的心胸,拥抱不断变化的新世界。变得独立一点,做一些让生活多姿多彩的有意义的事情。

对于年轻的人来说(这里包含了中年),他们必须要为自己的养老金和孩子的教育金做准备了。如果没有孩子,那还要准备更多的钱。我看过一部韩剧,名字叫《我亲爱的朋友们》,里面讲述了不同形态的老年人的生活,对于年轻人来讲非常有启发。年轻的人负担是重,但幸好还有时间还有精力。

所以,无论老幼,每个人都应该怎么做呢?我想可能就是努力成为一个有资源、有力量、有计划的人吧。老龄化社会实际上是在鼓励这类人,很可能会让人与人之间的差距进一步拉大。
