答案B

解析 细节题。找原因,本题容易误选C,原文第一句有提到“Family caregivers of seniors should…as it relates to their loved ones.”由此可知家庭成员要意识到老年人的压力,因为这关乎他们深爱的人——老年人;C项表达的意思为:因为家庭护工被老年人深爱,正好与原文相反:在该句话后面又提到,“help seniors learn to recognize stress factors and to take steps to alleviate the effects stress can cause.”家庭成员意识到老年人的压力,主要是帮助老年人减轻压力的危害,B项与此相符,故本题选B。
