你是“暂停的一代”吗？

　　这两天微博和朋友圈都在疯传几张图表，上面列出了1980年以后出生的人在不同的年龄阶段应有的存款数量，以及应该经历的人生阶段，比如，恋爱，结婚，怀孕等。但事实上，随着社会的发展，传统意义上某个年龄段应该做的事情，可能现代社会的年轻人都没有在做。有些是因为经济原因，有些则是个人选择了不同的生活方式。

　　Generation pause refers to young adults who are not able to do things previously typical for their age group such as buy a home, start a family and have kids because they are short of money.

　　“暂停的一代”指到了一定年纪，却因为没有钱而无法像前辈人那样买房、结婚生子的年轻人群体。

　　The research, conducted by Research Plus, found that:

　　由Research Plus组织的这项研究发现：

　　Of those aged 25 to 34 years old…

　　-One in five are postponing their marriage plans for more than two years

　　-One in 10 say they could never afford to marry

　　25到34岁的年轻人当中：

　　-五分之一将结婚计划推迟两年以上

　　十分之一表示他们可能永远都结不起婚

　　Of those aged 35 to 44 years old..

　　-One in seven had or would put off starting a family for at least four years

　　-One in four delayed starting a family for two years because of lack of savings

　　-One in 12 think they’ll never be able to afford children

　　35到44岁的年轻人当中：

　　-七分之一已经或者打算将成家的时间推迟至少4年

　　-四分之一曾经因为存的钱不够而推迟两年结婚

　　-十二分之一认为他们可能永远都养不起孩子

　　For example:

　　A new study released last week revealed a quarter of Brits believe they’ll never own a property, leading them to be dubbed ‘generation pause’ – an entire generation trapped in a kidult lifestyle not being able to afford to do the ‘grown-up’ stuff, like buying property, getting married and having kids.

　　上周发布的一项新研究显示，有四分之一的英国人认为自己永远也不会拥有自己的房子了。这一代被称为“暂停的一代”，整个群体停滞在“长不大的成年人”阶段，也没有能力做一些“大人们”的事情，像是买房，结婚和生子。
