热点素材04 人口老龄化
截至2023 年，中国60 岁以上人口已达2.8 亿，占总人口的19.8%，且老龄化呈现“规模大、增速快、
空巢化”特征。预计2035 年前后进入重度老龄化社会，老年人口数量和占比持续增长，为老年文化发展
提供了庞大的需求基础。
《“十四五”国家老龄事业发展和养老服务体系规划》明确提出“构建老年友好型社会”，强调以文
化赋能推动积极老龄化，鼓励老年人参与文化活动，提升精神福祉。
关于人口老龄化与高考英语应用文相结合的主要讨论点

社会视野与未来规划
1. 构建老年友好型社会
我们应关注公共设施的无障碍设计，并倡导全社会形成尊老、敬老、爱老的良好风尚。
背景知识与概念介绍

respecting, honoring, and caring for the elderly.

A Lesson in Lifelong Learning
Saturday, June 10th Cloudy
Today, I accompanied my grandpa to the University for the Aged. He enrolled in a painting class.
I was deeply inspired by his focus and curiosity alongside his silver-haired classmates. Their lively
discussions and willingness to learn new things were amazing. It shattered my stereotype that learning has an age
limit.

Technology: A Bridge or a Barrier?
Technology is advancing fast, but is it including our seniors? In my view, it can be both a bridge and a
barrier.
Smartphones and apps offer them new ways to connect with family. However, the complex designs
often confuse them, making them feel left behind.
Therefore, the solution lies in our hands. We, the younger generation, can act as patient teachers. By helping
them master basic digital skills, we can turn technology into a bridge that connects them to the modern world, not
a barrier that excludes them.

The chart clearly shows a steady increase in the percentage of people aged 60 and above from 2000 to
