It is true that times are changing for the old people in Britain. But not all the changes are bad ones. Modem medicine, for example, has made old people healthier than ever before. Another advantage is that there are many more old people than there Used to be.
This means that old people often have a good social life with their own clubs and organizations.
Old people, too, have more money now than their own parents and grandparents had.
The biggest disadvantage of modem life is loneliness. The young leave home when they grow up and many old people live alone. Fewer old people have brothers and sisters. An old person’s one or two children may have moved to another part of the country. Even when they live nearby, the young people have their own work to do and their own children to look after. They have not much time for the old. Problems of loneliness often start when people stop work. When people retire they often find it difficult to start a new life without their jobs.
The world has changed so fast since 1900 that it is difficult for old people to understand the problems of the young. And the world is changing even faster these days than it was fifty years ago. It makes you think, doesn’t it? What will it be like when today’s young people are old?
In the last century, old people did not have so many problems because ______.
选项
A、they had big families
B、they lived with their children
C、the young were kind to the old
D、the society didn’t change so rapidly
答案
D
解析
本题为细节推理题。文章一开始便指出“对老人而言时代在变”;而第二段提到,当今社会老人所面临的问题就是由于社会变革所引起的。由此推断,以前的老人没有这么多问题,是由于上个世纪的社会变迁没有现在这么大。
