答案 The Old Age Is Highly Valued In Chinese culture, old age means experience and insight. Young people are taught to respect the elderly and even revere them. That is why I think the old age is highly valued in Chinese society. First of all, in working places, promotion is usually based on seniority. In many government positions, we could notice the hierarchy where aged people are on the top while young people are usually at the bottom. This hierarchy is always respected and few people are willing to upset it. Secondly, aged practitioners are usually seen as authorities in their own fields. For instance, many patients prefer to visit a 70-year-old Traditional-Chinese-Medicine doctor with no formal education, instead of a 35-year-old one with a PhD degree, because they think the older the doctor is, the better medicine he will prescribe. This belief is also true in selecting a surgeon. People tend to choose aged surgeon to perform operations, because they are deemed as the best in the field. Why no one worry that aged surgeon, with potential trembling hands, could mess up an operation? Because deep down in their mind, old age is more valuable. In conclusion, Chinese people value the old age more than the youth Even though youth means possibilities and potentials, Chinese people recognize old age more.
