关于养老归属问题的雅思作文范文

　　Some people hold that old people should be taken care at home, while others think they should be placed in old people's house. What is your opinion?

　　有人认为老年人应该被在家中赡养，另外有些人认为他们应该被送到养老院，你的观点是什么？

　　Thanks to the development of medical science, there is an increasing number of elderly people in the world. Some people believe that the seniors should be looked after at home. Indeed, it is the children's responsibility and obligation to take care of their parents when they are old. However, as for me, a better way to ensure them to live a happy life is to send them to the nursing home.

　　First of all, in such retirement homes, aging people can receive intensive medical care from professional doctors. Besides, they can receive a proper diet prepared by dieticians to meet their individual requirements. This is especially good for those old people in poor health. Moreover, they could have regular medical check-ups so that any disease could be diagnosed in its early stages. What is the most beneficial is that if any disease strikes them, medical services are immediately available. Living in nursing homes, they have more opportunities to communicate with their peers. They do not feel lonely and can do a great deal of things together, such as doing morning exercise, playing games, and exchanging memories and stories from their past. On the contrary, if they live at home, they are often left alone when their children and grandchildren are away working or studying.

　　Some people may say that children have duties to take care of their old parents. However, nowadays people are confronted with fierce competition and suffer from great pressure. They are too occupied to spare time for their old parents. There are benefits for children's work and study when nursing homes take over the task of caring for the elderly. Children, free from care, can devote themselves to work or study and achieve more success. Since nursing homes benefit seniors and other family members so much, I believe that old people should be sent to nursing homes.

　　随着医学的发展，这个世界上老年人越来越多，有些人认为老年人应该在家被照看。确实，当父母老的时候，照看他们是子女的责任和义务。但是我认为一个确保能让父母快乐健康的更好方法是把他们送到养老院去。

　　首先，在这种养老院中，老人可以得到专业医生精心的医疗护理。此外，他们还可以接受营养师准备的合理膳食来满足他们各自的需要。这对健康情况不好的老人是十分有好处的。而且，他们会接受定期的身体检查，这样就可以使任何疾病在发展初期就被发现。有益处的是当有任何疾病侵害他们的时候，可以立刻进行医疗救护。在养老院里生活，他们有更多的机会与同龄人进行交流。他们不会感到孤独而且还可以一起做很多事情，比如晨练、玩游戏、一起交流过去的记忆和故事。相反，如果他们生活在家里，那么当孩子或者孙子在外工作或者学习的时候，他们就会感到很孤单。

　　有人可能会说孩子们有责任照看他们年老的父母。然而，现在人们面临激烈的竞争，承受巨大的压力。他们太忙了，不能分出时间给他们的父母。确实，当养老院接管了看护老人的工作，对孩子的工作和学习也是有好处的。从看护中解放出来的孩子可以对工作或者学习投入得更多，从而取得更大的成功。既然养老院对年老的人和其他家庭成员都有这么大的益处，那么我认为老人应该被送到养老院去。
