According to China's latest national census (人口普查). up to 23.4 percent of the city's residents (居民) are aged over 60 This number is expected to grow even further in the coming years. Chongqing is not alone. Many other cities around the world have been experiencing this same problem for some time now. Some people are worried about this. The elderly, they say, do very little for the nation's economy (经济). The government, however, has to give them lots of retirement benefits (退休福利). But a recent survey shows that many people agree there are some positives to having an aging population. With an aging population, younger people will have more chances to meet seniors in their daily lives. With age comes wisdom. Through usual communication, the elderly can bring'a wealth of a useful life lessons to younger people. The young, at the same time, are given chances to see things from a completely different perspective (视角) Besides, in many cultures, it's normal for elderly parents to live with their children under the same roof. Their children may have already reached adulthood, but these gray-haired men and women continue to play an important role in their development. In some families, the elderly are taking care of their grandchildren. It's reported that half of all the children in China's cities live with thei grandparents and are raised under their guidance. Thanks to this free childcare, working parents can contribute more to the economy. An aging population is often considered to be a headache.

Trning Red is a cartoon film about parent-child relations. It's said that making a cartoon interesting for people of all ages is not easy. It's even __ to make it thought-provoking (引 人深思的) for them at the same time. However, this movie made it. Here is something you can see in the movie. And hopefully they can help out with your parent-child relations Emotion controlling In Turning Red, the main character Mei, a teenage girl, would become a panda whenever she was too emotional (情绪化). She would be c out of control and broke everything apart. Isn't it similar to your real life? Although you won't into a panda, you may hurt others' feelings when you lose your temper (脾气). So what can you do? Maybe you can think about the people or things you love to make calm down (冷静), just like what Mei did. If you do, you can solve the problems more easily. Respecting (尊重) If you are a parent, don't always interfere (干涉) with everything. You should learn to understand your kids and let them choose or do things in their own ways. In the movie, Mei's mom was almost every choice Mei made and even hated her friends and her favorite band. She always said no to Mei. As a result. Mei the things she really loved. She kept all of them under her bed from the photos of her favorte band to the shirts she liked to wear, and made that place her secret (秘 密)garden. Like any other Pixar's movie, Turning Red also has a lovely ending. After a heart-to-heart conversation with each other, they both found a way to live their best life. The movie reminds everyone that communication is the key to a harmonious (和谐) and friendly parent-child relation _ So talk with each other. you can never have one! Remember, only by dong it can you have less unnecessary conflict (冲突) and then finally improve your relations B For as long as I can remember, I always look up to my elder brother. I always do the same thing as my brother. I play the video games that he likes, I eat the kind of food that he enjoys and I even his hairstyle(发型). My brother is like a superhero in my eyes. He was a straight A student in high school. It is difficul trying to be as excellent as him, but I always do whatever I can to be like him. He motivates (激发) me like a rabbit motivates a wolf. The wolf's goal( 目标) is to gct food. - mine is to be as great as my brother Younger brothers can influence(影响) elder siblings (brothers and sisters) just as much as an elder brother can influence a younger sibling. I talked with my brother about his experience growing up with me. He said he was thankful to me, because he thought it was I that brought out the best in him. He understood he could influence me So he didn't act like a bad student. , he chose to be his best self. And in my eyes. better ever happened to me than having a brother like him. A. research shows that younger siblings' grades _more quickly because they have an elder sibling as their role model(榜样). The elder siblng also studies harder because they want to become a better example. Not only can siblings influence each other's study, but they can also learn communicating , such as how to talk with others properly and being able to share with others. They also learn to deal with arguments and how to solve them. I believe anyone who has argued for days with their siblings can learn important lessons every one of their arguments Even though you may hear many bad things about having a sibling, it has some great benefits(好 处). So learn to enjoy all the benefits a sibling brings you and try to be the sibling you can.
