A

Every day I drive through town, I see a one-legged man go through ash trays for cigarette butts and trash cans for food outside fast food restaurants．It was only a month before Christmas and it was starting to get cold, so I could not stop thinking about him．That year my husband and I didn't have enough money to spend much on presents, but I figured what was too little for us would be a lot for someone who had nothing．

So one day I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste and some cans of tuna（金枪鱼）, just a few little things that didn't cost much and then I added a blanket and sweatshirts to them．I prepared a box so that it looked like a present and went in search of this man．I saw him hobbling（蹒跚） away from the trash can next to McDonald, so I pulled over, grabbed the box and went up to him．I said, "I would like to give you a Christmas present．There are some food items here and some other things I think you might be able to use．"

He looked at me and said, "No, thank you．I just had lunch．I don't need anything．" Then he hobbled on down the sidewalk, leaving me standing there in tears. I took the box down to a little shop that gave things out to the poor and the homeless and told them what had happened．Then I asked them to give the box to someone who could use it．The person there told me not to be upset, but I told her I was not crying for myself but for him because what I had done took away his dignity by treating him like a beggar．I was so ashamed．What a great lesson it was for me to learn. Sometimes accepting help is harder than giving it.

A new report says African governments are ill prepared to handle the growing number of people over age 65. The population in Africa as in other parts of the world, is getting older. Currently, there are 36 million people on the continent 65 years and above，which is 3.6 percent of the population, up from 3.3 percent 10 years ago. That could rise to 4.5 percent by 2030 and 10 percent by 2050. The African development Bank is raising concerns over the shortage of health insurance and pensions.

???? The African Development Bank says, "Aging is highly linked with long-term physical and mental?disability and a number of long-term chronic (慢性的) conditions."

???? "Africa is not well prepared to care for its aging population right now. And it needs to prepare for this fact." said Professor Mthuli Ncube, the African Development Bank's chief economist. African nations spend far less on healthcare than developed nations. Not so many countries have well developed medical aid plans for the elderly, whether they are privately provided plans or indeed government plans. If you look at the pension plans, you will find the pension industries are not well developed in some of the countries.

???? Professor Mthuli Ncube said African governments failed to take action on health insurance

and pensions because they were busy with economic reforms.

??? Another challenge for Africa is the worsening of informal systems of social protection. That is cash and support from both the extended family and community sources.

?? The African Development Bank recommends governments help carry out health insurance and pension plans. Ncube said African governments didn't have to handle the health insurance burden alone. "It is not only a must but also an opportunity for private companies to add their bit in this regard", he said. The report also recommends that African governments consider provi
