【全文翻译】
根据最近发表的一项关于人口的研究显示,如果想让老年人为社会做出贡献而不是成为经济负担,我们就必须给他们提供更多的学习机会。
据说,现行的政策依靠年轻人和他们的技能来提供就业,并不能应对人口结构调整所带来的挑战。只有1%的教育经费用于占总人口1/3的老年人。
这些挑战包括:大多数人退休后的时间占其一生的1/3;现在有越来越多的人超过享受国家退休金的年龄。
该报道的作者,Stephen Monair教授说:"活到老,学到老。我们之前只关注年轻人,把资源都投放在了他们身上的政策不能满足新的需要"。
教育经费都花在了25岁以下的年轻人身上。当他们比以往都更频繁的更换着工作、家,配偶和生活方式的时候,在任何年龄段他们都需要学习的机会。比如说,有些人50岁以上才开始开创自己的事业。
Mcnair说,我们应该给人们这个机会去做一个"中年回顾"以适应晚年的上班族的生活,并为过渡到退休做出计划。他们自己都无法预料到他们将在50岁到90多岁的哪一年退休。
我们应该为老年人提供更多的资金从而帮他们建立一种"身份意识"并帮助他们找到在退休之后的20年甚至更长的时间的"第三年龄"找到一个富有建设性的角色定位。
第一题为词语辨析题。根据上下文,此处译为:据说,现行的政策依靠年轻人和他们的技能来提供就业,并不能应对人口结构调整所带来的挑战。要求所填动词有"集中"之意,并能与介词on搭配。operate on"动手术";count on"依靠,期待";depend on"依赖于,取决于",均不符合要求。
