退休是这样子的么？谢谢！

还有这个“还活着吗”的问题，是不是就添living 还是有其他专有名词？谢谢！

Faint! What kind of school asks those questions? Columbia?

'Retired' is the correct answer. I'm not sure about 'living', could it be 'alive'? Bottom line, it doesn't matter to adcoms, so don't waste your time on those issues, just type whatever is understandable to you.

retired is right. Ignore the "living part" except if some of them passed away. It is kind of rude question.
