Original title: the queen of England declined the title of "old man of the year"
[micro special release of Xinhua News Agency] Queen Elizabeth II recently declined the title of "old man of the year", saying she did not meet the "relevant standards".
According to Reuters, the British magazine the elderly published a letter from the Queen's assistant on the 19th, explaining the reasons why the queen refused the honor.
The letter said that the queen believes that mentality determines a person's age, so she thinks she does not meet the "relevant criteria" for accepting the title, and hopes that the selection agency can find better candidates.
Over the past 29 years, the magazine has selected the "old man of the year" every year to commend the elderly for their contributions to public life. Most of the previous "old man of the year" were famous British figures, including former Prime Minister John Major and painter David Hockney. The Queen's mother also received this honor during her lifetime. However, the Queen's husband Prince Philip declined the title of "old man of the year".
At the age of 95, Elizabeth II is the oldest and longest reigning monarch in Britain. (end) (Yuan Yuan Yuan)
