高二英语作文：照顾老人

　　导语：尊敬老人一直是中华民族的传统美德，我们要多多照顾他们，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

　　In the picture, an old man is sitting in the wheelchair, and a dog is serving him with milk and food. Ironically, it is the dog that takes the responsibility to attend the old man. We cannot help wondering where the old man’s grown up children are. It is they not the dog who should take good care of their old father.

　　The implied meaning of the picture is really provoking. It is quite true that in our society there are some grown-up children who treat their old parents badly. When their old parents are too old to take care of themselves, they often view them as a “burden” of their family life. They refuse either to support their aging parents financially or to look after them. No doubt, this immoral behavior of these grown-up children’s should be subject to social condemnation.

　　To respect the old has long been a traditional virtue of the Chinese people. We should always bear in mind that we are much indebted to our parents in that they not only gave us life but have done much to bringing us up. It is against conscience to escape from the responsibility to take care of our parents. Rather, we should pay back for the love and care of our parents by making their later years happy and enjoyable.

　　【参考译文】

　　在这幅画中，有一位老人坐在轮椅上, 一只狗正在给他送牛奶和食物。具有讽刺意义的是，是狗在承担待候老人的责职。我们不禁要发问老人的成年子女在哪里?好好照顾年迈的父亲应该是他们而不是狗。

　　这幅画的寓意真是发人深省。确实，在我们的社会里有些成年子女不能善待老父母。当老父年迈不能照顾自己时，他们经常把父母看作家庭生活的`负担，不愿在经济上赡养或生活上照料老人。毫无疑问，成年子女这种不道德的行为应受到社会的谴责。

　　尊敬老人一直是中华民族的传统美德。我们应该永远牢记：我们应该对父母感恩，因为父母不仅给了我们生命，而且为抚育我们长大为我们付出了太多太多。逃避照顾的责任父母是违背良心的。我们应该让他们晚年生活快乐，回报他们对我们的关爱。
