    I read two articles about "Aging", I understood from both articles that it is one of the big problem in Japan now. It is called "Aging Society with a Declining Birthrate". I understood that the average life expectancy is the highest level in the world from the article, "The Wisdom Years". I thought, we can get foods easily, we can enjoy sports, and, medical treatment skills had developed, so the average life expectancy was extended. It is important to enjoy own life to live a long and healthy, but we also must be able to learn new things and cope with change. On the other hand, a birthrate was decreased. I thought that it was occurred by a increase of women who work. It is good for people to live a long and healthy life, but a decreasing birthrate will affect Japan in future.
