Given is a table which clearly illustrates the striking trend of aged population in China from 1990 to 2050. During the first 22 years, the number of people aged 60 and above ascended slightly from 97.19 to 136 million, and since 2012 it is predicted that this number will surge remarkably, reaching 410 million in 2050. Meanwhile, the proportion of aged citizens revealed and will reveal the similar trend, and it will reach 27.4% in total population.

Such a scenario can be naturally associated with various problems in aged society. For one thing, aged society is best characterized by the more burden for youngsters to support parents, which will enable younger generation to work harder. For another, compared with the past and today, the aged citizens will play a more important role in society. A case in point is their age for retiring will be extended. Therefore, a larger proportion of senior citizens have to take more responsibilities in work, family and society.

Accordingly, it is advisable for Chinese government to focus more eyesight on the coming challenges in the forthcoming future. Meanwhile, it is essential for China to work out comprehensive strategies to strengthen its social welfare to reduce young people’s stress.

Such a scenario can be naturally associated with various problems in aged society, but what resulted in this change above? For one thing, the past 30 years was best characterized by the policy of Family Plan in China, which enabled a host of families to have only one kid and enabled the proportion of youngsters to decline. For another, compared with the past, medical care and quality of life is and will be better; therefore, a larger proportion of people live longer. Consequently, the percentage of aged people showed and will show a trend of rise.

以巧果最为出名。巧果又名“乞巧果子”，款式极多。主要的材料是油、面、糖、蜜。《东京梦华录》中称之为“笑厌儿”、“果食花样”，图样则有捺香、方胜等。宋朝时，街市上已有七夕巧果出售，巧果的做法是：先将白糖放在锅中熔为糖浆，然后和入面粉、芝麻，拌匀后摊在案上捍薄，晾凉后用刀切为长方块，最后折为梭形巧果胚，入油炸至金黄即成。手巧的女子，还会捏塑出各种与七夕传说有关的花样。

直到今日，七夕仍是一个富有浪漫色彩传统节日。但不少习俗活动已弱化或消失，惟有象征忠贞爱情的牛郎织女的传说，一直流传民间。

On May 4, a worthy of our anniversary festival forever. Ninety years ago that a whoop, like giant thunderbolt tore up the old China feudal remnants of the dream of more than two thousand years. On May 4, ninety years ago a group of passionate indignation is young students holding "outside our sovereignty, punish kleptocratic" slogan, uplift the flag of "democracy" and "science" on the ancient capital of Beijings streets. At that time, the great river north and south, inside and outside the Great Wall, support, magnificent and victorious anti-imperialist patriotic struggle from spark become start a prairie fire.

The predominantly young students anti-imperialist patriotic movement, is the first time in the history of Chinese great thorough anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggle, it takes the great beginning of Chinese new democratic revolution and the history books.

五月四日，一个永远值得我们纪念的节日。九十年前的那一声呐喊，如同擎天霹雳般撕碎了旧中国两千多年的封建残梦。 九十年前的5月4日，一群激情悲愤的青年学生手持“外争国权，内惩国贼”的标语，高扬着“民主”、“科学”的旗帜走上了古都北京的街头。一时间，大江南北、长城内外，群起响应，轰轰烈烈的反帝爱国斗争从星星之火成为燎原之势。

在这次运动中，全国人民同仇敌忾，共同奏起了一曲浩气长存的时代壮歌。这场以青年学生为主的反帝爱国运动，是中国历史上第一次彻底的反帝反封建的伟大斗争，它以中国新民主主义革命的伟大起点而载入史册。

另外这一天有吃面的习俗，这一天往往跟中国的24节气以外的三个杂节气，一个杂节气就是三伏，还有一个是暑九，还有一个南方的雷雨。大家都知道头伏饺子，二伏面。而且吃面意味着挑寿，面挑得越高，人就越长寿。还有为织女摆贡。

面条可以做，抻面最好，它象征着巧，而且象征你以后的性格能屈能伸，特别是能男孩子抻面或者给丈夫抻面，而且具有韧性，说明你出去做人也要有韧性，你的事业才能够成功。丈夫的夫本来就是天字出头叫夫，丈夫为天，妻子为地，面抻出头上，天就为夫，就可以闯出一番事业。另外闯荡出来，还要祝福婆婆公公健康长寿。

过去有的地方包饺子放钱，或放针，挺危险的。放针，就是乞巧。所以吃饺子从上边的花边咬起，吃的还要比较仔细，到后面针往往在面最底层。今后也不主张这样，终究还是有危险。

Nowadays, in an ever tighter job market, great importance has been attached to an interview by both the employer and the applicant. The interview, so to speak, has become indispensable for getting a satisfactory job. On the one hand, the interviewer can take advantage of the occasion to learn about the candidates, such as their work experiences, education and their personalities, so as to pick out the right person for the company. On the other hand, the interviewee can make use of the

opportunity to get to know the job he is going to take up, the salary, the working conditions and many other things about the job he is interested in. Therefore, the job interview is very important to a job-hunter. But how can one succeed in it? Firstly of all, the interviewee must pay attention to his or her appearance. The first impression is always where we start. Get dressed properly and neatly. Secondly, good manners are equally important. Dont be too proud, and neither too timid. Just be courteous. Thirdly, the interviewee must demonstrate his aptitude and skills for the job and his knowledge about eh job-related areas. Be confident.

Last but not the least, the interviewee ought to be honest about his or her personal as well as academic background, for honesty is the best policy. To sum up, the job interview is indeed important, but there is no need to be nervous. As long as the interviewee has the ability for the job, with careful preparation and a fairly confident and honest performance, his or her success can be ensured.

如今，在一个日益吃紧的劳动力市场，不管是对于求职者还是雇主，面试都非常重要。成功的面试可以说已经成为得到一个满意的工作的必不可少的条件。一方面，面试者可以利用这个机会，了解候选人

如工作经验，教育背景和他们的个性，以挑选出该公司的合适人选。另一方面，求职者可以利用这个机会去了解他所要从事的工作，如待遇，工作条件以及其他一些他感兴趣的情况。 因此，对于求职者来说面试是非常重要的。但如何才能成功呢？首先，求职者一定要注意其外表。第一印象往往首当其冲。穿着要适当和整齐。其次，良好的举止也同样重要。不要太骄傲

也不过于胆怯。要有谦虚的品格。第三，求职者必须表现出自己的工作能力及技能和有关领域的知识。要有信心。最重要的，求职者应该诚实说明他的个人情况，以及学术背景，诚实是最好的策略。

导语：有关中国教育问题一直被关注着，那么中国的早期教育是什么样的呢?下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Chinese are very generous while educating children. Not caring about the money, parents of-ten send their children to the best schools or even abroad to study because they believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is.

So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money oneducation. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their children. However, the best early education is usually very cheap. Childrens skills vary. Most parents fail to realize though,what children lack today is self-respect and self-confidence. The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple choice tests and study well instead of the most important skills of being confident, happy and clever. Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and other housework. Cooking will improve many skills children need later in life. Though demanding patience and time, it is an enjoyable experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking,so he works hard and gradually finishes his job successfully.His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence. Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set your child plays with will make him curious and arouse his interest.

He may spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them. These activities are not merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.

【参考译文】

中国人在教育孩子时非常慷慨。不关心钱，有的父母送他们的孩子去最好的学校甚至出国学习，因为他们认为教育越贵，就越好。

所以父母会花太多钱的教育。即使是贫穷的夫妇也会为他们的孩子买电脑。然而，最好的早期教育通常是非常便宜。儿童技能各不相同。大多数家长没有意识到，现在孩子缺乏的是自尊和自信。问题是，父母只是在教育孩子如何进行多项选择考试，好好学习，而不是最重要的技能，自信，快乐和聪明。家长可以通过教授烹饪、缝纫和其他家务等实际技能来达到这一目的。烹饪会提高孩子以后生活中需要的技能。虽然要求耐心和时间，这是一个愉快的经验。一个好的厨师总是努力提高自己的厨艺，所以他努力工作，并逐渐成功地完成了他的工作，他的结果，一个精心制作的晚餐，将给他带来很大的满足和自信。有些旧的机器，比如你孩子玩的坏收音机或电视机，会使他好奇，引起他的兴趣。

他可能会花几个小时看着他们，试图修复他们。这些活动不仅是教孩子读书，而是思考，用他的头脑。更重要的是。

In recent years, Chinese traditional culture, as Sinology, has become increasingly prevalent. For instance, it is reported that many primary and secondary schools have set up courses of sinology, in which students are taught and required to recite classical work by Chinese ancient educators and philosophers, like Confucius.

It is of vital significance for the public to acquire knowledge on Sinology.For one thing, it is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5000 years. Thus, for individuals, they can enlarge their scope of knowledge, enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society. For another, the rehabilitation of Sinology can contribute to a harmonious society.

It is highly expected that all Chinese people should inherit the merits of Sinology. Therefore, in the first place, we are well-advised to read books by ourselves or to attend lectures on this issue. In the second place, we have the obligation to advocate and encourage others to learn. Then, it is necessary for us to introduce Sinology to the world. By doing so, not only can we inherit it, but also make it glorious and prosperous.

As a colleage student,first ,we should fully realize the importance of studying traditional culture ,such as reading classic books and practice calligraphy and chinese painting ,we also should remember and celebrate our own fesitivals,like the Spring Festival,the Dragon Festival and so on.

手巧的女子，还会捏塑出各种与七夕传说有关的花样。此外，乞巧时用的瓜果也可多种变化。或将瓜果雕成奇花异鸟，或在瓜皮表面浮雕图案，称为“花瓜” 。

巧果及花瓜是最普通的七夕食品。而在历史上各朝代则另有不同的食俗。例如魏朝流行于七月七日设汤饼。唐朝的节日食品包括七月七日进斫饼，并订七月七日为晒书节，三省六部以下，各赐金若干，以备宴席之用，称为“晒书会”。七夕同时也是适宜配药的日子。据说一种以松柏为药材的秘方，这种神奇的药丸以七月七日的露水调配合成，服一丸可延长十年的寿命，服二丸可延二十年。此外，还有饵松实、服柏子、折荷叶等，均号称为长生不老的仙药。比较实用的药方有晒槐汁治痔，煎苦瓜治眼，摘瓜蒂治下痢等等不一而足。其功效如何，就只有试过的人才知道了。如今浙江的杭州、宁波、温州等地，在七夕这一天，人们还会用面粉制作各种小型物品，放到油锅里煎炸后称“巧果”。晚上还会在打扫干净的庭院里，摆上巧果、莲蓬、白藕、红菱等，家中亲友围坐在一起。

The Great Wall of China

The Great Wall of China is called the "Ten thousand Ii Great Wall" in Chinese. In fact, it s more than 6 000 kilometres long. It winds its way from west to east, across deserts, over mountains, through valleys till at last it reaches the sea. It is one of the wonders of the world.

The Great Wall has a history of over twenty centuries. The first part of it was built during the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Warring States Period, more walls were put up to defend the borders of the different kingdoms. It was during the Qin Dynasty that the kingdom of Qin united the dif ferent parts into one empire. To keep the enemy out of his empire, Emperor Qin Shi Huang had all the walls joined up. Thus, the Great Wall came into being.

The Great Wall is wide enough at the top for five horses or ten men to walk side by side. Along the wall are watchtowers, where soldiers used to keep watch. Fires were lit on the the towers as a warning when the enemy came.

It was very difficult to build such a wall in the ancient days without any modern machines. All the work was done by hand. Thousands of men died and were buried under the wall they built. The Great Wall was made not only of stone and earth, but of the flesh and blood of millions of men.

Today the Great Wall has become a place of interest not only to the Chinese but to people from all over the world. Many of them have come to know the famous Chinese saying: "He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man."

中国的长城

中国的万里长城被称为“万里长城”。事实上，它有6000多公里长。它蜿蜒地从西向东，穿过沙漠，越过高山，穿过山谷，直到最后到达大海。它是世界奇观之一。

长城有二十多个世纪的历史。它的第一部分是在春秋时期建造的。战国时期，有更多的城墙被用来保卫不同王国的边界。正是在秦朝，秦国把帝夫的发福部分统一为一个帝国。为了把敌人赶出他的帝国，秦始皇把所有的城墙连在一起。于是，长城诞生了。

长城的宽度足以让五匹马或十个人并排走。沿着墙的是瞭望塔，士兵们常常在那里守望。当敌人到来时，在塔上点燃了火作为警告。

在古代没有任何现代机器的情况下，很难建造这样一堵墙。所有的工作都是手工完成的。成千上万的人死了，被埋在他们建造的城墙下。长城不仅是由石头和泥土建成的，而且是几百万人的血肉所组成的。

今天，长城不仅对中国人，而且对来自世界各地的人都有兴趣。他们中的许多人都知道中国著名的谚语:“没有到达长城的人不是真正的人。”

导语：春节是我们中国人最重要的节日。那么你是怎样过春节的呢?下面是一篇介绍中国人怎样过春节的作文，希望喜欢。

Spring festival is on the first day of the first lunar month. Chinese people most like the Spring Festival. During Spring Festival, Chinese people like having meals with their families, playing fireworks in the open air. My sisters and I played fireworks on that day. We had many fireworks. They were very beautiful. They were running into the sky and breaking into pieces. They looked like flowers in the sky. We were very happy and excited. After that, I made a wish. I hope that, we can have a happy and healthy life next year and everyone in my family can be happy.

I enjoy the festival very happy.

译文

春节是在第一个月的第一天。中国人最喜欢春节。在春节期间，中国人喜欢和自己的家人一起吃饭，一起放焰火在空旷的地方。在那些日子里，我和我姐姐一起放焰火。我们有很多的焰火。它们非常漂亮。它们升上天空并且使一些地方变得很亮。在天空中，它们看起来像是花。我们很高兴也很兴奋。在这之后，我许了一个愿，我希望，在来年，我们能够高高兴兴并且拥有健康的生活，还有每一个人在我们家庭里都可以开开心心。

我感到在这个节日里非常高兴。

I live with my father and mother in a very big house in dongguan. my parents are both very busy. they leave for work very early in the morning and don’t return home until late in the evening.

When i am home on weekends from school, we spend a lot of time together. we talk about my studies, my health and my school life. i love my parents very much.

My grandparents are still living, but they don’t live with us. their health is good and they both do sports very early in the morning. my grandmother does gymnastics with elderly women her age in the park. both of my grandfathers play basketball in the morning and sometimes they go swimming.chinese people eat rice for every meal, but i don’t like rice because i think it is tasteless! we eat meat, fish and vegetables. my family eats noodles and congee. my favorite is noodles.

I often play computer games because i like it so much. i often watch japanese cartoon movies with my parents on the weekends. on long holidays we take trips, too.

That is my description of typical family life in china.

SomeHolidays are so much fun that they catch on outside of their culture. The most obvious exampleisprobably Christmas, which is celebrated around the world by people who aren’t even Christian. Similarly, in recent years, the Dragon Boat Festival has moved beyond China to become an international holiday celebrated by people who may know little about the holiday’s origins.

有些节日实在是很有趣，所以在本土文化以外的地方也很受欢迎。最明显的例子可能就是圣诞节，世界各地的人都会庆祝圣诞节，即使是非基督徒。同样，最近几年端午节已经不局限于中国，成为国际性节日，而庆祝的人可能对节日的由来并不太了解。

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of three majorChineseholidays, along with the Spring and Moon Festivals. Of the three, it is possibly the oldest, dating back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice on the water.

端午节与春节和中秋节并列为中国三大节日。这三个节日中，它可能是最古老的一个，可以追溯到公元前227年的战国时代。这个节日是为了纪念楚国的大夫屈原，他因为对朝廷的贪污腐败感到绝望而投河自尽。镇上的人纷纷冲上船去救他，却没有成功。后来大家把米撒到水里，希望把饥饿的鱼群从他的躯体边引开。

Over the years, the story of Qu’s demise transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi – a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. The races have certainly captured the imagination of people from all over the world. Every spring there are nearly 60 dragon boat races held outside of China in cities from Vancouver to Sydney, from Gdańsk, Poland to Cape Town, South Africa. Canada alone has nearly 50 dragon boat teams and Germany has nearly 30.

多年以后，屈原逝世的故事逐渐演变成赛龙舟和吃粽子(一种包在竹叶中的米食)的传统。这些竞赛显然激起了世界各地人们的想像，每年春天有将近60场龙舟赛在中国境外的城市举办，从温哥华到悉尼，从波兰的格但斯克到南非的开普敦。单单字加拿大就有将近50支龙舟队伍，德国则有近30个。

So what is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that appeals to foreigners? “It’s an unusual

sport,” says one racer from Germany. “It’s not like everybody’s doing it. That’s one of the reasons that there’s such great team spirit in a dragon boat team – everybody feels like we’re doing something special.” And what about the zongzi? “Ehhh, they’re not bad, I guess,” he says. “Something of an acquired taste. I just haven’t really acquired it yet.”

那么，为什么端午节赛龙舟会吸引外国人呢?“这是一项不寻常的运动。”一位来自德国的参赛者说，“这并不是所有的人都在从事的运动。这正是龙舟队的团队精神如此高昂的原因之一，每个人都觉得自己在做一件很特别的事。”那么粽子呢?“喔，我觉得它不难吃。”他说，“那是一种需要后天培养的品味。我只是还没培养出来罢了。”

The Dragon Boat Festival ,also called the Duanwu Festival ,is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the

Chinese calendar.People always eat rice dumplings and watch dragon boat races to celebrate it.

Chinese First Spaceman

When I was in high school, one day, my Chinese teacher was so excited to tell us that our country’s first spaceman had landed the space successfully. Hearing the news, all the students felt excited, too, we were so proud that we were Chinese, it meant that our country had stepped into the new stage. Chinese first spaceman was Yang Liwei, at that time, all the news was talking about him, they watched him flied to the space and then came back safely. I did not have the chance to witness the process, because I had class at that time, but I was thinking about it all the time. Now many years have passed, more and more Chinese spacemen have flied to the space successfully, every time I will feel very excited, I am so happy to see our country become stronger.

当我上高中的时候，有一天，我的语文老师很兴奋地告诉我们我国的第一个宇航员已经成功地登上了外太空。听到这个消息，所有的学生都感到很兴奋，我们为自己是中国人而感到自豪，这意味着我们的国家已经进入了新的阶段。中国的第一个宇航员叫杨利伟，在那个时候，所有的新闻都是报道了他，人们观看了他登上太空并安全返回的过程。我没有机会目睹整个过程，因为我当时有课，但是我一直在想着这件事。如今很多年过去了，越来越多的中国宇航员成功登上了太空，每一次我都会感到很兴奋，我很高兴看到我们国家变得强大。

Calligraphy is the essence of Chinese culture, which has developed into a special high-level art apart from satisfying the needs of daily writing. It has been flourishing for thousands of years in China. Shops with strong commercial atmosphere will gain some elegance if they are decorated with some quaint cultural calligraphic works. Sitting rooms, studies and bedrooms can be nice-looking with calligraphy works decorated. As a kind of art work, the writing of calligraphy is particular. The Chinese characters are written on Xuan paper which absorbs ink very well and then are mounted to hang on a wall. The calligraphy works are mostly a poem or a motto that the host of the room likes it much; if it is written by the host himself, it will demonstrate more his aspiration and interest as well as his talent.

书法是中国文化的精粹，除了满足日常书写外，它已经上升成为一门特别的高等艺术。他兴旺于中华大地数千年而不衰。商业气息浓重的店面装饰一些具有古色古香、文化色彩的书法作品就会平添几分高雅。书法作品也常常装饰客厅，书房和卧室。作为一种艺术，书法的书写是很讲究的。汉字写在吸水性很强的宣纸上，然后再装裱起来挂上墙壁。书法作品多半是居室主人所喜爱的一首诗词或是一句格言;如果这是他自己所作，那就更能显示他的志趣和才华了。
