　　1. What do you think are the most important decisions that people make in their lives?

　　Well, off the top of my head, I guess it would be decisions like who you want to marry and spend your life with, how many children to have, and what kind of job to pursue, because these are things which will have a huge effect on your whole life.

　　off the top of my head = 不经考虑的话

　　2. What skills are necessary when making decisions?

　　I’m honestly not that sure, because I mean, when I make decisions, I’m not really thinking about what skills I’m using, I just kind of make them, if you know what I mean! But I suppose one skill that’s sort of necessary in making decisions is analytical skills, because this will help you weigh up each choice you face, and therefore guide you in making a good decision. And as well as this, I think that having the ability to make decisions quickly without pondering too much is also necessary, because we often have to make decisions without full knowledge of something.

　　I’m honestly not that sure = 我实在不太清楚

　　weigh up = assess 估量

　　ponder =斟酌

　　3. How can people improve their decision-making skills?

　　If truth be told, I’m not the best person to ask, because I’m not that good at making decisions, but I suppose one thing people could do would be to trust their gut instinct more. And by that I mean attach more importance to how they are feeling deep down, because I think our mind has a kind of sixth sense in knowing what the right thing to do is.

　　gut instinct = 直觉 (gut feeling, intuition)

　　And by that I mean = in other words / so what I mean is, 也就是说

　　attach more importance to = 更重视

　　4. Do you think that parents should make important decisions for their children?

　　On the whole, I’d say they shouldn’t, no, because what parents think is best for their children isn’t always necessarily the best thing. So as far as I’m concerned, I think wherever possible, parents should let their children make their own decisions, because after all, it’s their child’s life, not theirs. And even if the child doesn’t make a good decision, they will still end up learning from it.

　　On the whole = 总的来说

　　wherever possible = 在可能的情况下，只要有可能

　　because after all = 因为毕竟

　　end up = 最终

　　5. How can older people help young people make their own decisions wisely?

　　That’s a good question, and thinking about it, I’d say probably the main thing they can do is to help younger people understand what the most important things to take into consideration are, before they make a decision. You know, older people have experienced more in life, and so they're generally more aware of what’s important and what things should be prioritized. So I think there’s a lot that young people can learn from them.

　　Prioritize - 按重要性排列
