Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who comes in contact with them. Their values—this can’t be repeated too often—are not necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and order are necessarily the most important things. The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying 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 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 results. And at what point should you cease to treat the old body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by pursuing the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to activate the old body, 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 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 sun. [br] In the author’s opinion, ______.
选项
A、the human body can’t be compared to a car
B、the older a person, the more care he needs
C、too much emphasis has been put on old people’s values
D、it is easy to provide spare parts for old people
答案
A
解析
本题考查推理判断能力。根据文章第二段第四句“But never forget that suchoperations are painful experiences,however good the results.”可知,作者虽然把身体比喻成一辆汽车,当它变老时需要机械维护。但汽车是无生命的,而人的身体是有强烈感受的,所以不能像更换汽车零件那样更换人的身体组织,在这点上人体与汽车有着严格的不同。由此我们可以看出,人体不能与汽车相比才是作者的真实观点。所以答案为A。
