What happens ,then, when a person can no longer work? Most Americans stop working at the age of sixty-five or scventy and retire.because work is such an important part of life in this culture ,retirement can be very difficult .Retirees often feel that they are useless and unproductive .Of course,some people are happy to retire;but leaving ones job,whatever it is,is a difficult change,even for those who look forward to retring .Retirement can also bring financial problems.Many people depend on Social checks every month .During their working years,employees contribute a certain percentage of their salaries to the government .Each employer also gives a certain percentage to the government.When people retire,they receive this money as income.These checks do not provide enough money to live on , however,because prices are increasing very rapidly .Senior citizens,those over sixty-five,have to have savings in the bank or other retirement plans to make ends meet.The rate of inflation (通货膨胀) is forcing prices higher each year ;Social Security checks alone cannot cover these growing expenses.
