When people care for an elderly relative, they often do not use available community services such as adult day-care centers. If the caregivers are adult children, they are more likely to use such services, especially because they often have jobs and other responsibilities. In contrast, a spouse, usually the wife, is much less likely to use support services or to put the dependent person in a nursing home. Social workers discover that the wife normally tries to take care of her husband herself for as long as she can in order not to use up their life savings. Researchers have found that caring for the elderly can be a very positive experience. The elderly appreciated the care and attention they received. They were affectionate and cooperative. However, even when care-giving is satisfying, it is hard work Social workers and experts on aging offer caregivers and potential caregivers help when arranging for the care of an elderly relative. One consideration is to ask parents what they want before they become sick or dependent Perhaps they prefer going into a nursing home and can select one in advance. On the other hand, they may want to live with their adult children. Caregivers must also learn to state their needs and opinions clearly and ask for help from others especially brothers and sisters. Brothers and sisters are often willing to help, but they may not know what to do.
19. Why are adult children more likely to use community services to help care for elderly parents?
20. Why are most wives unwilling to put their dependent husbands into nursing homes?
21. According to the passage, what must caregivers learn to do?
选项
A、Provide professional standard care.
B、Be affectionate and cooperative.
C、Be frank and seek help from others.
D、Make full use of community facilities.
答案
C
解析
原文提到caregivers应该学会清楚表明自己的需求和看法,并向兄弟姐妹寻求帮助,C中的be frank 和seek help分别为原文state clearly和ask for help的同义替换,因此为答案。B为强干扰项,affectionate and cooperative“深情并合作”为原文原词,但原文中这两个词组的主语为The elderly,即指接受照顾的老年人,而非问题所问的caregiver。A“提供专业标准的护理”和D“充分利用社区设施”并非caregiver必须学会做的。
