答案 As is depicted in the picture, instead of using modern technological products, ranging from the modern wash basin, shower, washing machine to toilet, an old man would rather keep his traditional ways, washing his face in a washbowl, washing clothes by hand and so on. The picture embodies the seniors’ anxiety towards the rapid development of technology. Reasons accounting for this phenomenon are various. For one thing, the elderly gradually lose confidence in learning new things since their memory no longer serves them well. For another, children of some elderly people lack patience in teaching them how to use modern technological facilities. Hence, the impatience and detestation of the young discourage the grey’s enthusiasm even more. The elders’ anxiety about technological products not only affects their own quality of life, but also adds burdens to their children. Therefore, some measures are needed to help the elderly. First and foremost, the aged should hold a belief that it is never too old to learn and thus keep an insatiable desire for new things. What’s more, the young must be patient enough to help the elders gain confidence and enthusiasm. Finally, more technology popularization activities should also be launched to familiarize elderly people with modern products.
