　　Judged by Chinese tradition, the elderly are symbols of wisdom and compared to the charming twilight. Undoubtedly, the old occupy many significant positions in various areas, even in the government department. The essay would critically discuss both views and bring up my own opinion.

　　The reasons why some people think young adults can take on essential posts in the government are the following two aspects. Firstly, like racial discrimination, preventing young people from being engaged in crucial posts in governments can be regarded as “age discrimination”, which is against the universally accepted notion of “men are born equal“. Furthermore, the young adults have innovative thinking patterns and possess enough courage to change certain conventions, which may be different from those who are used to current states despite existing unsatisfactory phenomenon.

　　Nevertheless, there are three main factors why some people object to the opinion mentioned above. To begin with, with the development of medical science and the improvement of living standards, people now boast longer life expectancy. Most people are still energetically healthy at the an old age which should no longer be considered as a weak age. Additionally, since wisdom practically increases with one’s age, people around such an age as 55 usually possess merits they accumulate through their valuable living and working experiences, which are unlikely to be found in our green young people. With their extraordinary skills and sophistication, they stand out in all walks of life, not to mention in political arena. Another point we should bear in mind is that some senior posts in the government can be too demanding for the younger employees who lack experience.

　　In conclusion, from my perspective, it is accepted that young employees are capable of devoting themselves into the government work, while it is more appropriate to insist the elderly with rich experience on taking responsibility for vital positions.
