　　Sample Answer高分答案：

　　Well,if you ask me to introduce someone old whom I admire,I’ve got a myriad of amazing people that I can talk about!I genuinely enjoy hanging out with older people-they are kind,patient,understanding,supportive and wise.Being with them is like being with a book:I can always learn something different,and have my questions answered or problems solved.But if I need to pick someone that I respect the most,it would be a friend who qualifies as being old but is truthfully young at heart.

　　I met Tom at a social event when we both worked in New York.Not only did we both work in the same industry,our firms were also across from each other.He was in his 50s,polished,tanned,smart and full of energy.He usually got out of work at 6pm sharp while I needed to stay late for my job.When I said late,I meant 10pm late.He often joked that he left work earlier than me because he was way smarter so that he could leave when market closed.Well,I respected that but it wasn’t anything special-smart people were literally everywhere.I also knew Tom had everything he needed in life at that point:a well-paid job,a beautiful apartment and two cars!More annoyingly,his job was so stable that he didn’t even need to try hard at all.

　　One day,Tom came to me and said he would be moving back to his home country.I was in shock and said:“Wait,what?How?”He told me he had already quit his job,sold his house and cars,and would pack up the rest of his stuff and try to start his own company in a different city,and in a different industry!I always thought life-changing decisions should come slowly.For Tom,it was very simple:it is never too late to pursue your dream or take a risk.He seemed to show me that his most prized possessions were not material items,but his intelligence,vision and confidence in facing the unknown.He was someone who would seize the opportunity to find out how far his own intangible assets would take him

　　Tom makes me reflect on how we determine what it truly means to be young.It is about not settling,not giving up,and not stopping from trying something new.Being young is about not being afraid of the result.In that sense,Tom is forever young and I deeply respect him.
