年龄不是借口 Age Is Not the Excuse

In China, it is the tradition to respect the old, so in the public occasions, old people enjoy the priority, such as taking the seat in the bus. For the small children, when they make mistakes, their parents will protect them by the reason of being ignorant. Old age and small age seem to be the special group to enjoy the priority. But now many news reported the negative behaviors that were caused by the old and the small. Old people beat the young people for wanting to dance in the basketball court. What's more, small children damage the public property but are free of duty. The public is so angry about these incidents, then they start to think about the old merit. It is the good behavior that deserves us to be respect instead of the age. Age is not the excuse of avoiding responsibility. 
在中国，尊重老年人是传统，所以在公众场合，老年人享受优先权，如在公共汽车有座位坐。对于小孩子，当他们犯错误时，父母会出于年幼无知的原因保护他们。老年和年龄小似乎是享受特殊待遇的团体。但是现在新闻报道了许多由老年人和小孩子造成的负面的行为。老人因为想要在篮球场上跳舞而殴打年轻人。小孩损坏公共财产，却不用负责任。公众对这些事件非常生气，他们开始思考传统美德。好的行为才值得我们去尊重，而不是年龄。年龄并不是逃避责任的借口。
