I think a better question would be "when is one old?" I just turned 70, look 55, feel 30, and have no aches, pains, illnesses or physical problems of any kind. So while 70 sounds old to a 20-year-old, I cannot think of myself that way. 我觉得问题换成：“一个人什么时候才算老？”更好。我刚刚70岁，看起来像55岁，感觉自己才30，而且并没有任何病痛缠身。70岁让20出头的人听起来老，但我并不觉得自己老。 My maternal grandmother lived to be 102. My paternal grandfather lived to be 99. I have good genes, so I figure I'll live another 30 to 40 years, barring any unforeseen incidents. 我的外祖母活到102岁，我的祖父活到99岁。我有这么好的基因，我认为我可以再活个三、四十年，除非发生不可预知的意外。 It makes my heart glad to see all these answers on Quora of people in their 70s, 80s, and beyond. Because I used to think that at that age, you can't deal with change or technology -- but these people do and they use Quora to help those of us who will be approaching those ages soon enough. 很高兴可以在Quora看到七八十岁甚至更高龄的人的回答。因为我曾认为到了那个年纪，你就没有办法跟上变化和技术，但是这群人却可以，他们使用Quora来帮助我们这些即将踏上高龄的人。 So I want to thank all the "old" posters here and I hope that when it's my turn, I can do the same for the next generation. |
