Task：Some people believe that one should not be allowed to work after the age

of 65, others believe that they should be allowed to work for as long as they

want. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

参考范文：

Opinions are divided over the issue of retirement. In the essay, two major

and opposite views will be fully expounded.

Some argue that the age of sixty five should be the limit to working. First

and foremost, seniors above sixty five won’t have enough strength and energies

to continue the hard work of sitting about six or seven hours in front of

computers, let alone physical labor. What’s more, earlier retirement of the

elders means more job vacancies for the youngsters who otherwise have no

opportunities to flex their muscles. Low employment rates may bring a large

group of vigorous young people idling around doing nothing. Last but not least,

the aged can stay in home, looking after their grandchildren for the parents who

have to work all the money to earn more bread.

Others, however, insist that people should be given full rights when it comes

the issue of retirement. Occupation provides senior citizens an opportunity to

give full play to their abilities, so that they could feel still needed and

valued by the society. More importantly, by keeping the position, the aged are

able to pass on their experience to the callow who can stand on the shoulders of

predecessors rather than do research on what have already been discovered.

Another more practical reason for elders to continue working is to lessen the

financial burden for the families because young parents could at least set aside

no money for the aged.

In a nutshell, it depends totally on the seniors to determine whether to

abandon working or not and when to go back home entirely, after them taking into

account factors such as the mental and physical health of individuals, the needs

of the corporations and the demands of the families.
