有关人口老龄化的英语作文【汇编20篇】

From these graphs, we can draw a conclusion that, with the growth of human population, the number of species has decreased rapidly in America, and some species have even vanished from our planet.

Why does this phenomenon appear? There are several possible reasons for this. Above all, as the human population grows rapidly, a growing number of people came to live where some wild species have been living. Then these species have to move to other places. Some of them probably can not adapt to the new environment and die. In addition, although many people look on the wildlife as their friends, some people may not think so. They catch a lot of wild animals and sell them in order to get more money. Even worse/More importantly, as the result /consequence of the industry, the natural balance and the ecologic environment are destroyed. The clear cutting has become increasingly serious. So some of the wildlife become homeless and extinct.

In order to protect the wildlife, I have some suggestions. First, the governments should make laws to prevent them from being caught and killed. Second, the governments should educate people to love nature and protect it. Third, as for ourselves, we should take practical actions to protect our living environment.

China has become a country with an increasing number of old people. By old people we usually mean persons over the age of sixty. We often call them senior citizens instead of old men to show our respect.

Most senior citizens retire or no longer work full-time. They usually live in their own houses not far from their childrens, while the children of a few senior citizens have gone abroad and work or study far beyond the oceans. For certain senior citizens, tile years after retirement are not very enjoyable. First, they feel that their lives lose meaning for being at home all day. In addition, they may feel lonely, especially those without children around. Moreover, they become more concerned with their health, as they grow older, and worry a lot about their safety. At the same time, many senior citizens enjoy their lives. They feel free to do things they were not able to do when they were working and raising their families. They spend their time travelling, doing exercises or watching TV. They get together with their fellow members who have the common interests and equal free time.

In fact, there are some still continuing their work, not just for money, but to show their value. However, no one really wants to be old, and perhaps all like to be young forever.

参考范文：Aging of the Population

Population officials and demographers have much to worry about China’s increasingly aging population. It is estimated that the proportion of people aged 60 or older in China will rise to 11.8 percent in 2020. By the middle of this century, people aged beyond 60 will take up 27.4 percent of the total population — that means one out of every four people will be senior!

The aging population poses a serious challenge to families and the society. On the one hand, with families becoming smaller and living pace escalating, it is even graver for families to care for aged members adequately. On the other hand, aging causes a relative decline in working force. Consequently, the productivity of the whole society will be affected to some extent.

The rapidity of the population’s aging has made it more urgent for the adoption of countermeasures. There is no doubt that the key is to build a solid economic foundation. Meanwhile, importance should be attached to overall social progress by changing the backward situation in social security, welfare and service. What’s more, family care and community-based services should also be encouraged.

参考译文：

人口官员和人口统计学家担心中国日益老化的人口。据估计,在中国60岁以上的人口比例将上升到2020年的11.8%。到本世纪中叶,年龄超过60岁的人将占总人口的27.4%,这意味着每四个人中就有一个将高级!

老年人对家庭和社会造成严重的挑战。一方面,随着家庭变得较小,生活节奏不断升级,甚至严重的家庭照顾年龄成员充分。另一方面,老化导致工作相对衰落的力量。因此,整个社会的生产力将受到影响在某种程度上。

人口老龄化的速度使采取应对措施变得更为紧迫。毫无疑问,解决问题的关键是建立稳固的经济基础。与此同时,应该重视整体的社会进步,改变落后的状况在社会保障、福利和服务。除此之外,应该鼓励家庭照料和社区服务。

Everything grows in modern times, and it seems that nothing grows as quickly as population. Population keeps growing, and grows rapidly, firstly because peoples living standards keep going up, with better houses, better clothing, better food, secondly because people know how to preserve themselves so as to live longer, and thirdly

because they have modern medicine and medical care to ensure that usual diseases can be easily cured. There is another cause for the growth of population. Few countries or governments have realised the importance of family planning. On the contrary, some encourage child-birth.

Here are some examples of population growth from 1985 to 2000 (as anticipated).

Lima had 5.7 million people in 1985 but there were 9.1 million by 2000. Tianjin used to have 7. 9 million in 1985. By 2000 its population reached 9. 7 million. Such cities as London, Osaka, Moscow, Beijing, Karachi, Delhi, Jakarta, Seoul, and Teheran are having a similar population growth. We would not be shocked if all other cities have this rate. But some cities, like Calcutta, Shanghai, New York, and Sto Paulo boost their population even more quickly than the above-mentioned cities. Tokyo had 18.8 million in 1985. The year 2000 found 20.2 million Tokyo citizens. Mexico city had 17.3 million people in 1985, but as population specialists had predicted, that reached 25.8 million in 2000 !

The population problem is a universal concern nowadays. Any government is a failure if it does nothing about its population growth.

【参考范文】 the ups and downs of population growth

As is seen from the two graphs, it is clear that with the rapid growth of U.S. population from 1800 to 1990, the number of its wildlife species no longer existing soared during the same period. Naturally, we can draw the conclusion that the sharp decline of wildlife species resulted from the population growth.

Two reasons may account for this phenomenon. To begin with, as the population grows, people consume much more natural resources, which often leads to excessive hunting. Second, with the increase of human activities, modern people take up more and more space. Which has a great impact on other species. Finally, the problem of pollution becomes more and more serious with the development of modern industry. More and more animals have to adapt themselves to the decaying environment or move to a totally different place, but not all of them are fortunate enough to survive the changes.

Solving this problem calls for, above all, the government’s efforts to control population growth, to decrease industrial pollution and to enhance the laws to forbid wildlife hunting. Moreover, common citizens should be aware of this ecological crisis and take on the responsibility of wildlife protection. In a word, only when the government and the common people make joint e f forts can we hope to find a satisfactory solution to this problem

Progress in science and the improvement of living conditions have led to the rapid growth of the world population. Modern medicine, for example, has made it possible for babies to grow up healthily and for people to live longer. With improved living conditions, particularly in the countryside, people tend to have larger families. As a result, the world population has increased so rapidly that it has now exceeded 6 billion.

But the overgrowth of population presents a threat to the existence of human society. A large population demands a GREat deal of food supply and shelter space. However, limited productivity and scarce world resources can hardly meet the needs of the ever-increasing population. Thus, in the long run, the overgrowth of the world population will only harm mankind.

To guarantee the steady development of human society, mankind must realize the consequences resulting from fast population growth and carry out a family planning programme. Only by adopting effective measures, can human society develop steadily and have a bright future.

The line chart depicts that the percentage of those aged over 60 increased moderately from 6% of the total population in 1990 to 15% in 2010 in China. It is predicted that the proportion will amount to 25% in 2020 and 30% in 2040.

Quite a few factors can account for this phenomenon, but the following might be the critical ones: for one thing, with the implementation of Chinas family planning policy and the improvement of peoples living standard, fewer and fewer people are willing to have more children. Therefore, the birth rate has dramatically dropped, which results in a low proportion of youngsters and a higher proportion of elders. For another, due to the fact that more hospitals are equipped with advanced medical instruments and more professional staffs, many incurable diseases now can be easily cured. As a result, the public can enjoy an increased life span, adding to the growing proportion of old people.

The aging of the population is also a result of social progress and economic development. However, this phenomenon will be likely to bring about some undesirable consequences in the future. Hence it is high time that we figured out some ways to face the up-coming challenges.

When you ask a foreign what’s his impression about Chinese, he will say Chinese people are friendly and kind, but if you ask his impression about Chinese people when they are meeting in social occasion, he will answer you with the drink. It is a tradition for Chinese people that when they invite friends, they must prepare a lot of wine, the guests need to be drunk, because it means the hosts do a good job on treating their friends.

Wine culture in China is very popular, it reflects on the business communication, too. When people need to deal with the business, they like to book a table in the hotel, and talk about the business work while they are having dinner. The inevitable thing is to drink, the boss like to watch the young employees to drink, when the boss is happy, the business is done. Chinese social communication is not in the best way, but there is no way to change.

【翻译】

科学的进步和生活条件的改善导致了世界人口的迅速增长。例如，现代医学使婴儿健康成长和人们长寿的可能性成为可能。随着生活条件的改善，特别是在农村，人们往往有更大的家庭。结果，世界人口增长如此迅速，现在已超过60亿。

但是人口的过度增长对人类社会的生存构成了威胁。大量的人口需要大量的食物供应和住房空间。然而，有限的生产力和稀缺的世界资源很难满足日益增长的人口需求。因此，从长远来看，世界人口的过度增长只会损害人类。

为了保障人类社会的稳定发展，人类必须认识到人口快速增长所带来的后果，实行计划生育。只有采取有效措施，人类社会才能稳步发展，前途光明。

在世界人口走向老龄化和发达国家人口老龄化发展的同时，中国人口老龄化也在加剧。人口老龄化的产生，正是社会进步、经济发展的结果。中国人口转变新中国成立，起先是死亡率明显而迅速地下降。而全国性的生育率转变则始于20世纪70年代初期国家计划生育政策的介入，并迅速由高生育率水平转向低生育率水平。这样，人口的老龄化就导致了劳动力人口负担不断增大的问题，影响了我国社会经济的发展，并对相应基础设施、法律制度等物质及精神各方面的建设提出了新的要求。

针对这一情况全国老龄委发布了《中国老龄事业发展“十一五”规划》，提出了“十一五”期间，、医疗保障、社会救助等，以及老龄事业基础设施建设、老年产业、老年精神文化生活等方面所要实现的目标和任务。我们既要正确认识中国人口老龄化的形成原因、基本特征、发展趋势以及可能产生的社会经济后果，更要弄清人口老龄化对社会经济运行及可持续发展的影响。惟此，才能提高决策的科学性和可行性，解决好人口老龄化问题，为实施可持续发展战略创造有利的人口环境。通过对人口老龄化的科学内涵的界定，明确我国人口老龄化的成因。通过对人口老龄化的演进过程的研究，重点阐述我国人口老龄化的特征及其对经济、社会和家庭等各方面的影响，从，提出解决人口老龄化问题的相应对策措施。

Nowadays we have to face the problem that there is a sharp increasing in population of China,and people tend to get more and more old,but many of us didnt realize it,and still ignore the Family planning,especially rural areas,4 people or even more in a family isnt a strange phenomenon.There is another important problem that more male than female needs to be paied more attention.If we all want to solve these questions,all we have to do is not only government appeal to all of us ,but als o everyone of this country get down to this.

如今我们必须面对一个问题,那就是中国人口不断暴涨,人口老龄化趋势日益严重,可是很多人并没有意识到这一点,依然弃计划生育于不顾,特别是农村人口,常常一家4口甚至更多.男多于女是人口的另一个重要问题,需要引起我们的重视.要解决这一切不仅需要政府的呼吁还需要我们大家着手去做.

两个方面含义：一是指老年人口相对增多，在总人口中所占比例不断上升的过程;二是指社会人口结构呈现老年状态，进入老龄化社会。国际上通常看法是，当一个国家或地区60岁以上老年人口占人口总数的10%，或65岁以上老年人口占人口总数的7%，即意味着这个国家或地区的人口处于老龄化社会。老龄问题包括老年人问题与老龄化问题，而老年人问题与老龄化问题相联系，但又不完全相同，一般把有关老年人的社会保障和权益保护看作“老年人问题”，把有关老年人增加对社会经济发展的影响称为“老龄化问题”，这是从人类社会经济发展的范畴来认识老龄问题。

目前，全世界60岁以上老年人口总数已达6亿，有60多个国家的老年人口达到或超过人口总数的10%，进入了人口老龄化社会行列。像古巴、俄罗斯、东欧、芬兰、中国、澳大利亚、还有非洲的一些国家。基本上人多的国家和发达国家占主要。人口老龄化的迅速发展，引起了联合国及世界各国政府的重视和关注。80年代以来，联合国曾两次召开老龄化问题世界大会，并将老龄化问题列入历届联大的重要议题，先后通过了《老龄问题国际行动计划》、《十。一国际老年人节》、《联合国老年人原则》、《1992至2001年解决人口老龄化问题全球目标》、《世界老龄问题宣言》、《1999国际老年人年》等一系列重要决议和文件。提醒各会员国“铭记着二十一世纪的社会老龄化是人类历史上前所未有的，对任何社会都是一项重大的挑战”，吁请各会员国“加强或设立老龄化问题国家级协调机构”，“在国家、区域和地方各级制定综合战略，把老龄问题纳入国家的发展计划中”，“为老龄化社会的来临做好各项准备工作”，提出了“建立不分年龄人人共享的社会”的口号，以期增强人们对人口老龄化问题和老年人问题的重视。

老龄化为什么会成为问题?根据美国普查的研究，世界性的人口老龄化是“历史上未曾出现的社会现象”。人们可以把这一现象当作历史进步来庆祝。从根本上讲，这种人口转变是医疗进步、教育水平明显提高和经济发展的直接成就，也是公共卫生事业，例如饮用水卫生、克服营养不良、克服传染病和寄生虫疾病，以及降低母婴死亡率的结果。

The two charts show that the increase in the U.S. population has been accompanied by a corresponding decline in the number of wildlife species. Far too many species have been lost already. This poses a danger to ecological balance.

As the human population expands, more and more wild animals are hunted for food, or because they are thought to present a threat to man. But studies show that one of the primary causes of the disappearance of wildlife is pollution, which is one of the consequences of population growth and economic development. This makes us wonder if man is able to share this planet in harmony with other life forms.

In my opinion, it is imperative to take steps to reverse the disturbing trend illustrated in the charts. One measure would be to forbid the building of cities in areas where wild life is threatened with extinction. But, more imporantly, man must learn to stop polluting the environment, or he himself will become extinct.

The human race has experienced a consistent increase in population since the beginning of its history. Famine and disease have done little to offset this steady increase. Too many people are added annually to the population of the world. So both the causes of population increase and the results of having more people are worth careful study.

Culture evolution is the major factor responsible for population increase. Early in human development, people invented tools to hunt animals. Later they built shelters to protect themselves. Step by step, they made life easier. As a result, fewer died from natural forces, such as harsh climate and disease.

In the past, when population grew, there was unexplored territory to inhabit. But now, almost all the habitable land has been explored.From joozone.com.

The worlds population may reach 8.7 billion in 2033. It is clear that world population is a serious issue that needs careful attention. Human beings are unique to solve problems through cultural evolution.Facing the world population explosion in the near future. We must carry out the birth control program in order to save the mankind and save the world.

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.

目前80后、90后普遍生育意愿较低，生活成本较高，梁建章认为，未来需要更多地考虑推行鼓励生育的政策，只有人口结构年轻化，社会和市场的创新活力才会释放。

“首先教育资源要公平，其次是居民，尤其是年轻人的住房要保证。”杨燕绥说。但这些想法落地面临着巨大困难。杨燕绥指出，虽然我国设立了专门应对人口老龄化问题的全国老龄工作委员会办公室，但这个部门难以协调其他部门，导致“政出多门”。

梁建章认为，放开户籍制度管理是值得考虑的一个出路。现在越来越多的年轻人住在大城市，如果不放开户籍限制，他们就很难在大城市生儿育女，因为在这些城市难落户，家庭住房、小孩上学等都会成问题。

但他提醒，户籍管理的放开要与城市规划同步，比如需要考虑如何提供更多的教育资源，如何增加大城市的土地和住房供应，如何改善交通，治疗“大城市病”。

老年人都是包袱吗?杨燕绥认为未必。未来可以通过挖掘“银发经济”拉动经济，以减轻年轻人养老负担，实现养老压力的代际平衡。在她看来，迎接未来的“银发经济”需要决策者提前做好准备，实现“有备而老”。

人口老龄化是指一个国家或地区在一个时期内老年人口比重不断上升的现象或过程。人口老龄结构的老龄化是世界人口发展的基本趋势。

人口问题是当今世界人们最为关心的问题之一。人口的发展受社会、政治、经济的制约，同时它对社会的发展也起着促进或延缓的作用。经过30年的努力，我国在人口控制的问题上取得了卓效可喜的成绩。根据国家统计局近期的统计，在计划生育政策实施后，我国人口总和生育率从20世纪70年代初的5.8%下降到现在1.8%左右，这种生育率的下降让我国13亿人口日到来推迟了整整4年。从另一方面来看，随着生育率的下降，人口的发展也使得人口老龄化问题尤为突出。

人口老龄化是指某一人口中老年人口的比重增加，总人口年龄结构发生变化的过程。按国际通用标准，60岁人口占总人口的10%以上，或65岁以上人口占总人口的7%以上，便可以称为“老龄化社会”。美国《纽约时报》指出，我国的老龄化速度太快，从而飞速经过了这个原来西方社会可以建立起一个中产阶级的时间段。联合国的统计数据也表明，我国的老龄化速度是全球最快的。根据我国老龄协会提供的数据，我国老龄高峰将于2030年左右到来，并持续20余年。到2l世纪中期，60岁及以上的老年人可能超过4亿，65岁及以上的老年人则会达到3亿左右。我国人口的老龄化不仅速度是全球最快的，而且这种人口老化趋势也超过了国家经济社会的现代化的发展速度。我国社会的人口是在经济高速发展阶段，人均收入水平低、综合国力不强、社会保障体系不健全的前提下进入老龄化的。这种情况与发达国家老龄化是截然相反的，发达国家的人口老龄化工业化完成之后经济达到高度的发展水平之下才出现。此外，我国人口老龄化还存在着区域失衡的特点。我国各地区老龄化程度自西向东呈阶梯上升，地区间差距较大。东部沿海地区65岁以上老年人口比例已超过8%，其中上海达就到11.46%。而西部地区老年人口比例均在5%以下，部分地区仍是典型的年轻型人口结构。老龄化程度的差异，进一步加剧了地区经济发展的不平衡。因此，老龄化的问题不仅仅是一个人口问题，同时它也成为了制约经济社会发展的问题。

那么，13亿人口大国的养老问题该如何应对?目前，国家有关部门以及众多人口学学者都提出通过完善社会养老保障体制来缓解这股银色浪潮的汹汹来势。但是，我国的社会养老保障体制却面临着资金严重短缺、体制不健全等问题。根据麦肯锡咨询公司预测，我国养老保障的短缺金额到2010年将达1 100亿美元，而未来30年内将会出现3.7万亿的资金缺口。美国战略与国际问题研究中心在研究报告《银发中国——中国养老政策的人口和经济分析》中指出，即使在我国的城市也有近一半的劳动力人口享受不到公共养老体系的保障。全国职工有近3/4的人没有任何退休保障。报告还指出，目前我国的社会养老基金的运作是拆东墙补西墙的现收现付制，即是用现在工人的税来养活目前的退休人员，不做任何基金积累。虽然，目前我国正努力促使“现收现付”制向基金积累制转换，但是由于各种原因，养老基金仍然存在巨大的收支缺口。到2004年，我国全国养老保险欠费达到了450多亿元，在全国范围内，许多省市都面临着养老保险收不抵支的情况，甚至是积累亏空。加之农村养老问题也日益提高到政策议程上来，我国的养老保障制度面临着艰巨的挑战。
