When getting old,people can meet many difficulties in their everyday life.Common problems for senior citizens are poor health,inconvenient public facilities,and loneliness.Young people can do a lot of things to help the old,provided they do have the desire.Young couples may pay more visits to their parents' homes during weekends and holidays.The young could help the old more in public,offering seats on buses,for example.However,the most important thing to help the old is that the society should consider more for senior citizens.We should build up more rest homes,hospitals,and entertainment centers with high-grade service specially for old people.
