In the old days, children were familiar with birth and death as part of life. This is perhaps the first generation of American youngsters (年轻人) who have never been close by during the birth of a baby and have never experienced the death of a family member.
Nowadays when people grow old, we often send them to nursing homes. When they get sick, we transfer them to a hospital, where children are forbidden to visit terminally ill patients—even when those patients are their parents. This deprives (剥夺) the dying patient of significant family members during the last few days of his life and it deprives the children of an experience of death, which is an important learning experience.
Some of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed approximately 500 terminally ill patients in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of more benefit, not just to them but to the members of their families as well. We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its potential outcome.
It is important for family members, doctors and nurses to understand these patients’ communications in order to truly understand their needs, fears, and fantasies (幻想). Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly, honestly, and frankly about their trouble. Many of them shared with us their tremendous need to be informed, to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition, and to be told when the end was near. We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to cope with the approach of death and finally to reach a true stage of acceptance prior to death. [br] The need of a dying patient for company shows________.
选项
A、his desire for communication with other people
B、his fear of approaching death
C、his pessimistic attitude towards his condition
D、his reluctance to part with his family
答案
A
解析
细节题。本题的问题是“临死的病人需要有人陪伴,说明……”根据文章第四段第二句“Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly,honestly,and frankly about their trouble.”可以看出,病人欢迎他人陪伴是想与之非常坦诚地谈论他们的麻烦、困惑,是一种需要同人交流的渴望,所以A项符合题意。B、C、D均不符合题意,故应排除。
