问题     Falls are the number one cause of death to old people at home. Most old people can live safely at home if they make a few changes. Falls are common as people are getting older. Up to half of home accidents could be prevented by making some very simple changes. Here are a few suggestions:
    Mark trouble spots with bright tapes. The first and last steps on stairs are usually high-risk accident areas. Applying bright tapes and using bright light in these areas would make these spots easier to see.
    Put grab bars(扶手)in the bathroom. A large number of falls occur in the bathroom. This is unfortunate(不幸的)because it’s easy to make the area safe from accidents. Putting grab bars in the bathroom gives people something to hang on to.
    Invest in a personal alarm. A personal alarm can be started if a person falls or otherwise gets in trouble.(73)With the push of a button, the alarm automatically sends a signal, which gets someone to call and see if the person needs help.
Last steps on stairs may become a high-risk accident area if they are______.

选项 A、not painted in a different color
B、not marked with bright tapes
C、fixed with grab bars
D、very brightly lit

答案B

解析 事实细节题。从文章第二段“Mark trouble spots with bright tapes.The first and last steps on stairs are usually high-risk accident areas.Applying bright tapes and using bright light in these areas would make these spots easier to see.”可知,用鲜艳的胶带或照明灯来标明容易摔跤的地点,都可以使这些地方更容易被看到。A“没有用不同颜色粉刷”,C“安装上扶手”,D“良好的照明”,这三项不符合原文。所以正确答案为B。
