情境5国家要延迟退休年龄,老师组织讨论,分析延迟退休的原因及对个人、社会的影响。
任务五 任务型阅读(10 分)
China is making a big change to when people can stop working. The government will slowly raise the retirement (退休) age. Men will retire at 63 instead of 60, and women will retire at 55 or 58 instead of 50 or 55. Why
首先,中国人口正在老龄化。By 2050, about 35% of people will be over 60 years old. With more older people and fewer young workers, there won’t be enough people to support everyone. Delaying (延迟) retirement means more people will keep working. They will also keep paying into the retirement money system, helping it stay strong.
Second, people are living longer and healthier. In the 1950s, the average lifespan (寿命) was about 40 years, but it is 78.6 years in 2023. Many older adults are active and want to work longer. This helps the economy (经济) and keeps older people feeling useful.
Some people worry that older workers will take away jobs from young people. But experts say this is not a big problem. Older workers often have different skills and jobs than young people. Also, the number of young workers is reducing, so there’s a need for more people to fill jobs.
This change is part of a plan to make society fair and strong. It will take effect from January 1, 2025. By working together, China hopes to balance the needs of all generations (世代). What do you think Will you encourage your grandparents to keep working when they’re older
