For as long as I can remember, seniors have attracted too little attention from society as a whole. For example, people may shrink physically as they get older and have a higher incidence(发生率) of falls, but how many people have thought about buying a more comfortable and stable chair for their elderly parents?
We spend generously on our children, such as hiring a nanny to take care of them .When we look for a nanny for our baby, we believe that someone who charges 8.000 yuan must be better than a person who charges 5, 000 yuan because they have a better grasp of how to interact with babies, But when we look for someone to take care of our elderly parents, we usually keep the cost as low as possible, We just want to make sure that caregivers will prepare three meals a day for our seniors, but we don’t take their psychological needs into consideration.
The differences in attitudes are obvious. However, we are not yet old, so perhaps it's hard for us to understand the bitterness of the elderly: regression(衰退)in health, a handful of pills every day, not being able to catch up with developments in the digital age, and the disappearance of the old streets and favorite restaurants from the good old days. Those are the kinds of lives they live and we may even live through something similar in the decades to come.
If we think about how we want to be treated when we grow old, we should start the changes today. Because the elderly were once the backbone of society and made huge contributions, they should enjoy the fruits of the country's development as well
1.What situation might old people face according to the text?
A. A high and stable income. B. Physical inconvenience.
C. Much concern from the public. D. Short of favorite food and fruits.
2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “nanny” in paragraph 2?
A. home teacher B. coach C. storyteller D. babysitter
3.Why is it difficult for us to understand the bitterness of old people?
A. Because we fail to catch up with their development.
B. Because we are sharing a similar lifestyle with them
C. Because we are too young to experience their condition
D. Because we have spent much money looking after them
4.What does the writer think of the elderly?
A. They can make greater contributions. B. They are worth the attention from society
C. They should start to change themselves D. They need a handful of pills every day.
