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.
Falls in the bathroom are considered to be unfortunate because ______.

选项 A、they can easily be avoided
B、old people seldom fall in bathrooms
C、grab bars do not help to prevent falls
D、bathroom accidents are difficult to prevent

答案A

解析 事实细节题。从文章第三段第三句“This is unfortunate because it’s easy to make the area safe from accidents.”可知,其实我们可以很容易就把浴室改造得更加安全,要是在这里发生事故就太不幸了。所以正确答案为A。
