My View on Retiring Age 退休年龄之我见

In China, there is law to set the specific retiring age for women and men. Female can retire at the age of 55; while male have to be 60. Aim at this phenomenon, now there is a hot discussion about this age problem. Many people think this age is not scientific, and the government should issue new policy to give more chance to the new generation. As far as I am concerned, it would be better if the retiring age can be more flexible.

在中国，有法律规定男性跟女性具体的退休年龄。女性55岁时可以退休；而男性就要到60岁才可以退休。针对这一现象，如今对这一问题的讨论是很激烈的。许多人认为这个年龄是不科学的，而且政府应该出台新政为新的一代提供更多的机会。就我而言，如果退休年龄可以更加灵活是最好的。

On the one hand, as different people will be different in health situation, work stress, work age, so everybody needs their own suitable retiring age. For example, some people are in good health, so they can work for a long time even do some labor work, while for those whose health situation is not good may be difficult to work so long. Other situations also have the similar reason. If the government can carry out some flexible retiring age, they can get rid of the job not suitable for them quickly. Otherwise, some people work for their whole life, but couldn’t enjoy their life for a long time. On the other hand, if the old generation doesn’t retire, the new generation couldn’t have the opportunity to walk into their working position. It is not good for the development of a country.

一方面，因为不同的人身体状况，工作压力，工作年龄会不一样，所以每个人适合退休的年龄是不一样的。例如，有些人身体健康，所以他们工作时间可以点，甚至可以做一些劳力的工作，而那些健康状况不是很好的可能就难以适应工作那么长。其他情况，也是同样的道理。如果政府可以实施弹性退休年龄，他们就可以更快的摆脱这个不适合他们的工作。否则，有些人一生都在工作，到最后却没多长时间来享受生活。另一方面，如果老一代不退休，新一代就没有机会步入工作岗位。这是不利于一个国家的发展的。

In conclusion, it would be better if retiring age could be more flexible based on different people. It is not only good for people, but also the whole society.

总之，如果退休年龄可以根据个人情况而实现弹性化会更好。这不仅仅对我们大家有好处，对整个社会也是好的。
