Over 10 years ago，people had to leave their houses to buy a train ticket.Now it can be done with a smartphone.Although the fast development of science and technology is making our life easier，it is creating problems for old people.For example，an old man in Dalian was not allowed to travel by subway.At the station，he was asked to show his health QR code （健康码），he had to leave the station.Many old people worked hard for the world when they were young，but now it seems that the world has left them behind.What can be done to make a difference？Some volunteers are trying to help.They teach the elderly to use smartphones.However
Many old people have physical problems.They can't see small screens clearly，and their fingers make it hard for them to touch screens.To solve the problems，perhaps smartphone makers should make screens of the smartphones better so that the old can use them easily.
If you have grandparents or know some elderly people，lend a helping hand to them when they need it.Technologies that you think are easy to learn may be very difficult for them.
