问题     Falls are the number one cause of death to old people at home. Most old people can live safely at home if they make a few changes. Falls are common as people are getting older. Up to half of home accidents could be prevented by making some very simple changes. Here are a few suggestions.
    Mark trouble spots with bright tapes. The first and last steps on stairs are usually high-risk accident are as. Applying bright tapes and using bright light in these areas would make these spots easier to see.
    Put grab bars(扶手) in the bathroom. A large number of falls occur in the bathroom. This is unfortunate(不幸的) because it’s easy to make the area safe from accidents. Putting grab bars in the bathroom gives people something to hang on to.
    Invest in a personal alarm. A personal alarm can be started if a person falls or otherwise gets in trouble. With the push of a button, the alarm automatically sends a signal, which gets someone to call and see if the person needs help.
选项 A、are free from home accidents
B、can improve their health
C、are likely to live longer
D、can live more safely
答案 D
解析 本题为推理题。由题干simple changes定位于文章首段第四句“Up to half of home accidents could be prevented by making some very simple changes．”(有一半的家内事故都能通过做一些非常简单的改变来避免发生。)可推出：事故减少一半，这样老年人会生活得更安全。A、B、C项文中均未提及。因此，答案为D。
