选项

答案 The Phenomenon of Empty Nest ①Currently, both in urban and rural areas, it is hard to observe three or four generations living under the same roof. Many old people live by themselves, while their children study or work somewhere. These old people are referred to as the old in the empty nest. ②Two reasons result in this matter. ③For one reason, due to the fierce competition and globalization, many young people have to pursue their career in a remote place. ④For the other reason, the improvement in economy and housing condition makes it possible for a family to have more than one apartment. Therefore, the young and the old live separately. Old people in the empty nest are likely to feel lonely and depressed. ⑤Joint efforts must be made for them. Firstly, the government and community should engage their attention to establish clubs for the older to kill their spare time. Secondly, the young should always extend their love to the old. Last but not least, old people themselves should enjoy a colorful life by cultivating hobbies.

解析 ①开门见山,解释空巢老人的社会现象,并对其进行定义。另外,generations living under the same roof“世代同堂”的家庭生活模式,和现在的空巢老人形成鲜明对比。
   ②分析产生这种社会的原因。运用衔接短语表达多种原因,使文章结构清晰:Two reasons result in…For one reason,…For the other reason,…Therefore….
   ③原因之一:子女在外出工作,无暇照顾父母。fierce competition“激烈的竞争”为加分词。
   ④原因之二:子女喜欢自由,与父母分开居住。其中make it possible to do sth为亮点结构。
   ⑤提出解决措施:分别从政府和社区、年轻一代以及老人自己三个方面提出建议,呼吁大家齐心合力解决问题。其中engage their attention“引起某人的注意”是高分表达。
