今天我们要学的词是baby boomer。 Baby boomer, 指美国战后人口飞速增长期出生的人,也就是1946年到1964年间出生的人,简称婴儿潮。 "The first baby boomer turned 65 on Jan. 1st, 2011," 婴儿潮第一个出生的人2011年1月1号过65岁生日。
在美国,年满65岁可以申请老年人享受的联邦医疗保险Medicare. "Baby boomers will be turning 65 at a rate of more than 10,000 per day for the next 19 years," 在接下来的19年里,每天都会有一万多个婴儿潮期间出生的人满65岁。专家担心,这种情况会给联邦医疗保险体系造成过大压力。好的,今天我们学习的词是 baby boomer...
