Samuel: a Prisoner in His Own Flat
In some ways, Samuel is luckier than many old people. He lives in a brand new flat that’s warm and comfortable. But he feels trapped.
He’s eighty-seven, has sight only in one eye and has great difficulty in breathing. Even a short walk down to the local shops would prove far too much for him. And to make matters worse, he had to move from his own home in East London to his new flat, because he was unable to live by himself any longer. Regular transport to an old people’s day center would make all the difference.
They are cheerful, warm places to spend the day—an end to the depressing loneliness. For in the day center old people meet, make friends and can get a good nourishing (有营养) meal at a low price.
Five pounds is a real help towards another center.
Thirty pounds help provide a Geriatric Day Hospital.
One hundred and fifty pounds inscribes the name of someone dear to you on the dedication plaque (纪念用薄金属板) of a day center.
Your donation is desperately needed to help old people. So please post your gift or donation (捐款) to "Help the Aged". [br] What can the day center do for the old?
To keep them from ______during day time.
选项
答案
loneliness
解析
本题问的是日托中心能为老年人做什么。根据文章第三段第一句话的后半部分an end to the depressing loneliness可得出答案。keep from意思为“使远离”。
