IELTS: writing task 2: An Aging population
TOPIC: At the present time, the population of some countries includes a relatively large number of young adults, compared to the number of older people. Do the advantages of this situation outweigh the disadvantages?An aging population is always a challenging problem faced by the countries all over the world. Therefore, the situation where the number of the young people is higher than the older population is beneficial for the government and ourselves (?) the population.
On the one hand, if the population of a country consists more of young adults than older people, it will have a positive effect on the speed of economic development. Firstly, industry and agriculture need a large number of workers which mainly come from the younger population. In addition, the young adults who have received a high-level education will spark the development of business and technology. For example, after the university fostered the students with knowledge, (frontier? do you mean) novel ideas and thoughts, young people enter society and the workplace and can make good use of their knowledge to increase the production and sales volume, and at the same time, they will do their best to improve avoid the drawbacks of new technology and craft (?).
On the other hand, the large number of old people will increase the burden on the government’s healthcare system, medical services (same), as well as family. Serious illnesses such as cancer and heart disease happen frequently when people get older, and the government and families need to spend much money on them. Therefore, if a family with more young adults will reduce the cost pressure.
So every country encourages couples to have more than two children to keep the number of young people higher than the old people so as to prevent the occurrence of an aging population.
