What practical skills can young people teach old people?

Hmm, let me see well, I guess there are a few skills they can teach, but probably the most obvious would be how to use new technology, such as smartphones or even how to send an email, um and perhaps in some cases, young people can educate the elderly how to be, how should I put it, more thoughtful about some things, such as queuing etiquette, which I would consider as a type of soft and yet practical skill. Practical in the sense that it can help prevent conflict, I think that’s practical.

It is though, I think, a little difficult to teach them, as the saying goes, ‘you can’t teach an old dog new tricks’.

• thoughtful 考虑周到的；关心的
• queuing etiquette 排队礼仪
• soft skill 软技能
• practical skill 实用的技能
• prevent conflict 阻止冲突；预防冲突
• as the saying goes 老话说
• you can't teach an old dog new tricks [谚]老狗学不了新把戏；老年人很难适应新事物

What skills can young people teach old people besides technology skills?

As I mentioned, I think young people can teach those elderly who have, for whatever reason, not developed contemporary habits, those that most young people I think have, of being perhaps more socially minded, things such as manners, or ways of doing things, or not littering, things like that. Not all old people are like that, but there is a fairly large number that are.

• contemporary 当代的
• socially minded 关注社会的
• a fairly large number 相当多的；大量的

How can young people teach old people skills?

Hmm, I’m not quite sure what you mean, but for example, like how to use a smartphone, it will take patience, repetition, assistance, methodical step-by-step and side-by-side instruction, but I think most importantly, whatever it is that a young person wants to teach to an elderly person, is that one needs to be patient.

• patience 耐心
• repetition 重复
• assistance 协助
• methodical 有条理的；有系统的
• step-by-step 一步一步的
• side-by-side 并排；肩并肩
• instruction 指导
• patient 耐心的

What do we do when we want to learn something new?

What do we do? Hmmm, I guess the first thing we should do is define the goal, and then I think the person should make a plan.

After that, the person should make sure they have the resources, including time, and I guess finally, the learner should be honest with themselves in gauging their process, a constant honest assessment of the progress, or perhaps lack of progress, that is taking place.

• define the goal 定义目标
• make a plan 制定计划
• resources 资源
• lack of progress 缺乏进步
• assessment 评估
• take place 发生
