Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who comes into contact with them. Their values—this can’t be repeated too often—are not necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important things. The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying(腐烂) food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone on bed, taking no notice of the worms. But is it interfering with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying this concept of personal freedom to the point of where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old.
Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The body is like a car: it needs more mechanical maintenance as it gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to the provision of spare parts. But never forget that such operations are painful experiences, however good the result is. And at what point should you cease to treat the old baby? Is it morally right to try to push off death by continuing the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to make the old body active, knowing that it is designed to die? You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they will feel bound to give them a try, on the principle that while/where there’s life, there’s hope.
When you talk to the old people, however, you are forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant depends less on money or on health than it does on your ability to have fun.
选项
A、very old people enjoy living with their relatives
B、social services have nothing to do with very old people
C、very old people would like to live alone so that they can have more personal freedom
D、very old people are able to keep their rooms very clean
答案
C
解析
本题考查的是对文章大意的归纳。通过总结我们知道老年人已不把健康、环境和年老看得那么重要,而要独自居住去享受个人自由。而C项"老年人喜欢独自生活,这样他就可以有更多的个人自由"正是印证了这段文字所要表述的内容。A项"老年人喜欢和亲戚住在一起"与But is it interfering with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relations so that they might be taken better care of?不符。B项"社会服务部门与老年人无关"与Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms不符。D项与Physical comfort,cleanness and older are not necessary the most important things不符。
