一九八六年是不平凡的一年。党的十二届六中全会通过了《中共中央关于社会主义精神文明建设指导方针的决议》,这无疑是我国人民政治生活中的一件大事,这也是我们老人普遍关心的一个重要问题。 一个人年纪大了,精神和体力都逐渐衰退了,要退居二线或离休、退休,但是,对于社会主义精神文明建设来说,是永远不存在退出第一线的问题的。 首先,加强社会主义精神文明建设,是对社会全体人员的要求,自然也包括我们老年人在内。老同志的离、退休,绝不是脱离社会,生活在真空里。 1986 is an extraordinary year. The Sixth Plenary Session of the Twelfth CPC Central Committee passed the “Resolution of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Guiding Principles for the Construction of a Socialist Spiritual Civilization”, which undoubtedly is a major event in the political life of our people. This is an important issue that our elderly people generally care about. When a man is old, his mental and physical strength are gradually declining, he must retire from the second line or leave for retirement. However, there is absolutely no issue of withdrawing from the front line for the construction of socialist spiritual civilization. First of all, to strengthen the building of a socialist spiritual civilization is a requirement of all the people in the community and naturally includes the elderly as well. The old comrades must retire from society and live in a vacuum.
