答案 In this essay, I shall explain why I think that the age of people in important government positions is irrelevant when compared to other factors such as ability. Some people argue that younger people do not have enough experience of life to be in such important positions. I do not think that this is a very strong argument. After all, there are examples of young people who have been successful and old people that have not succeeded in life. Therefore the amount of experience does not only depend on age. There is an argument that people who have been in government for a long time—and have therefore gained experience of it—become more limited in their thinking. Instead of developing inventive ideas and policies, they seem to often become less inventive. Perhaps giving some important positions to younger people could avoid this situation. Government is supposed to represent the people. This claim is made by all types of governments, from democracies to dictatorships. Therefore, it would be reasonable to expect those in government to be a representation of the people in terms of age, gender and race. However, this does mean that the most talented might not be chosen. To conclude, I suggest that important government positions be given to those who deserve them on the basis of their abilities, not solely on the basis of age. Naturally, there will be many older people in these positions, since they will have had more chance to develop careers, but talented younger people should not be excluded.
