Part 2老人
Describe an elder person you are familiar.
You should say:
who he/she is
what his/her characters are
what you do together
and explain why he/she influenced you.
The person I’d like to talk about is my grandfather, who is just a common farmer, He possesses the characters of most common people in China: hard-working, sincere and devoted to the kids. My grandfather didn’t earn much, but he managed to put my father through university. He lived in a small village in Guangdong Province. After I was born, he came into the city to look after me. I’ll never forget the efforts he made to help me read. I was five years old and I haven’t learned to read yet. My grandfather spent so many hours helping me because my father was very busy. He would force me to come to his room and he tutored me very strictly because he was determined that I would get a head start on the other students. As a result,I could read before I entered school, and that helped me gain an advantage in school. Besides reading and writing, my grandfather also taught me the value and importance of kindness to others. He told me that we don’t do kindness just to gain favor, but because that’s what our true nature expects us to do. As well, he taught me that kindness isn’t all smiles and praise; sometimes it involves strict and harsh words for the right reasons. I love my grandfather very much. Now I’ve grown up and grandfather is becoming old. I hope he is happy in his old age.
我要讲的是我的爷爷，他只是一普通的农民，同时也有着中国人最常见的性格特征，那就是勤劳、真诚而且对小孩照顾有加。虽然我的爷爷那时家境不是很好，但他还是让我爸爸念大学。他原本住河北省的一个小乡村里，在我出生后，他就来省城照顾我。我绝不会忘记他那时帮助我读书识字时所付出的努力。我五岁了还不会读书认字，因为我爸爸很忙，于是爷爷就花很大功夫来教我读书识字。他强迫我进他房间然严格指导我，因为他决定让我比其他孩子有一个更好的起跑点。后来在我没上学的时候，我就读书认字了，这使我在学校更有优势。
除了读书写字以外，我的爷爷和教会我友好待人的重要性。他告诉我不要奢求付出就要回报，而是要发出内心的去帮助其他人。此外，他还说友好有时并不意味着微笑和赞美，而是为坚持真理提出严格和尖锐的话语。
我非常爱我的爷爷，我现在已经长大了而我的爷爷却渐渐老去，我希望他能有关幸福的晚年。
Part3相关老人拓展话题
1.What’s the role of elderly people in China? 老年人在中国扮演着什么样的角色
It is a traditional moral in China to respect the elderly. In every family the elderly person possesses high status, In my family we always consult with my grandfather when the decision should be made about some important family issues. And we take his suggestion seriously. 尊敬老人是中国的传统美德，每个家庭里的老人都享有很高的地位。在我家，我们经常会和爷爷一起商讨一些重要的家庭事务。我们会慎重采纳他的建议。
2.What do you think are problems for older people in China? 你认为在中国存在着哪些老年人的问题？
With the implementation of one-child policy in China, many families can’t afford to take good care of the elderly person. The young people are usually too busy to accompany their parents. And the aging problem is becoming serious. But I think these problems will be solved by means of social methods. Now nursing houses are more and more popular. And the welfare system is becoming perfect. 由于计划生育政策的实施，很多家庭不能很好地照顾老年人。年轻人太忙于他么是事业了以至于都没时间陪伴他么的父母。而且人口老龄化越来越严重。但是这些问题可以通过社会种种方法来解决。现在养老院很流行，同时福利院也在渐渐完善。
3.What are the main problems for elderly in China? 在中国老年人最主要的问题是什么？
Generally, I think the elderly people live a happy life, but they are sometimes lonely. With the implementation of the one-child policy, many elderly people don’t get enough care. In addition, there are not enough entertainment facilities for elderly people. 总的来说，老年人过着非常幸福的生活，但是他们显得有些孤独。由于计划生育政策的实施，很多老年人到不到足够的照顾。此外，能适用于老年人用的那些娱乐设施也不是很多。
4.What are the problems in elderly people’s experience? 老年人的经验有什么问题吗？
The elderly people’s experiences are very valued which direct young people in many ways, but sometimes they are out of date, and can’t follow the trend of society, So it is better to accept the elderly people’s experience selectively. 老年人的经验对于指导年轻人是非常有价值的，但是有些经验也过时了，不能跟上时代是步伐了。所以最好是有选择地听取老年人的经验。
