The student 23 the professor, saying, “Let’s play the man a(n) 24 : we will hide his shoes, and we stay behind those bushes, and wait to see his 25 when he cannot find them.”

Chinese people are now living happier and longer than before. According to the latest study, the number of people over 60 years old is 130 million, making up 10 percent of the whole population, and increases at a rate of 3 percent per year. This marks that China has stepped into the aged society. It is the Chinese tradition to respect, love, support, and help old people, and the aging problem has received more and more attention from the society.
