Today, it’s quite a common phenomenon that more and more people from the countryside go to big cities to work. In some villages, even the women have gone to cities. Only the old and the children are left at home.
如今,越来越多的来自乡村的人们去城市找工作,这种现象十分普遍。在一些村子里，连妇女们也到城市打工。只有老人和小孩留在家中。

In my opinion, it’s not advisable for those young people to flock into big cities. For one thing, the old need to be looked after, and their children need to be looked after. Without the company of the young, the old may suffer from the loneliness, and without the love and care of parents, the children will not grow up healthily. For another, whether those young people can make a better living there is still in doubt, because the expense of living is too high, and the competition is so fierce in big cities. Although most of them work hard day and night, they still find it difficult to support their life.
在我看来，这些年轻人涌入城市的做法是不明智的。因为首先老人需要照看，孩子也需要人照顾。没有儿女的陪伴，老人会觉得孤单，而孩子缺少父母的关爱，这不利于他们的身心健康。再者，青年人能否在城市过上好生活也不确定，因为城市的开销也很高，大城市的竞争压力也激烈。尽管他们大多数人都日夜工作，也会发现生活仍旧很困难。

Accordingly, before making their decision, those young should consider whether they are capable of the city life. Moreover, they ought to think more about the need of their family.因此，在定下决心外出务工之前，青年人们应该考虑好自己是否能适应城市生活。此外，他们还应该考虑下家人的需要。
