Question

一项社会调查发现，目前许多在城市上班的子女因为工作等原因每年只能回乡下老家或者甚至常年没回家，忽视了家里年迈的父母。老人常常盼着子女回家吃饭或者哪怕打个电话，可是经常希望落空。请用英语写一篇短文反应此情况，说说你的感想，并呼吁全社会来关心老年人。词数：120左右。

Answer 1

Nowadays, many young people who work in big cities rarely return home to see their old parents, who, however, expect their children to be back to have dinners with them, or just make a phone call every day, especially during festivals. As a result, their expects often become disappointments.
In my opinion, the old don’t ask for much. They simply hope their children can come back, talk with them and have a meal together. But the young fail to do so. They think the old are satisfied as long as they have enough to eat and drink. In fact, they can easily get lonely and they often miss their children. So the young should spend more time with their parents and also it’s time that our society took some measures to solve this problem and call on everyone to care about the old. Only in this way can we make our society more beautiful.
