Question 8 - What's your opinion of Korea's present retirement age of 58-62? Do you think it is suitable or too young? Why do you think so?

My eighth question is: what's your opinion of Korea's present retirement age of 58-62? Do you think it is suitable or too young? Why do you think so?
Nowadays Koreans can expect to live up to at least 75 or 80 years of age. So requiring people to retire at the young age of about 60 is "absurd." Besides the fact that people live longer than before, there are other reasons for raising the retirement age. For one thing, with the current labor-shortage, it is helpful for everyone to allow old people to continue their work. Another reason for raising the retirement age is the growing trend for retirees to remain independent. Most of them would feel uncomfortable if they should live under the same roof with their children and they don't expect their children to support them in their old age. So I want the retirement age to be raised.

Question 7 Life after death.

Hi everyone,
Today's topic is life after death.
Which of the following three statements is the closest to the way you believe about life and dying? Tell why you believe it.
a) Man lives only one time, dies, and doesn't live again. There is only darkness after death. There is no "life after death."
b) There is life after death, but it is in a different place, such as "heaven." We can't come back to this world again.
c) Man dies and is reborn again in a new body such as cow, horse, and a human being.
I'm not a religious person, so I don't think there is another world after death. My motto is "do my best in this world" because I can't live again and can't live in another world.

Question 6

Hi everyone,
Nowadays the price of oil is soar up. I feel we are facing another energy crisis. Addition to this it is predicted that the presently-known oil reserves will be depleted by the year 2050. Sometimes I feel it is better to dispose of my car. Instead it will be more economical to use public transportation. We are hard-pressed to find other ways to satisfy our growing energy needs very soon. So my question is: "what kind of research do you think that governments around the world should be spending the most money on right now? Why do you think so?
1. developing solar energy
2. developing nuclear energy
3. developing wind energy
4. developing water energy
5. looking for more oil reserves

Question 5

Hello everyone,
The fashion industry in Korea is booming, and a lot of men as well as women today are spending lots of money to buy clothes of good quality. They are concerned about their clothes. Suppose that you have an important meeting.
My question is:
When do you decide what closthes you're going to wear?
1. I decide the night before.
2. I decide in the morning, but it takes a long time to decide.
3. I decide in the morning, very quickly.
My answer is 3. I decide in the morning what to wear. I follow my feeling at the moment. I always choose the clothes without my wife's help. I want to know your answer and if there is any special reason, let me know.

Question 4

Hello everyone,
When I recall the past, sometimes I think if I should have studied harder. As some of you know, because I attended a technical high school, I didn't take any supplementary classes or do night self-study in my high school days. After class I usually played on the playground with my friends playing such as soccer, baseball, basketball, or volleyball. I miss my friends much. My question is, "How was your high school days (or middle school days)? "

Question 3

Hi, there
How can I live my life well?
I want to live as long as possible.
But if I should live a hard life, I would not want to live longer.
I want to live a healthy life.
According to an expert of human life span, humans can live up to 125. Growing period for humans is 25 years. If we multiply the growing period by five, we can get our maximum life span, so the number is 125. But the environment doesn't allow us, humans, to live up to 125. So my question is, "how long do you think you will live?" considering all the factors such as environment, pollution, advance of technology and medical science.
