Many people wrongly believe that when people reach old age, their families place them in nursing homes. They are left in the hands of strangers for the rest of their lives. Their【S1】______children visit them only occasionally, but more often, they do not have any【S2】______visitors. The truth is that. this idea is an unfortunate myth -- a(an)【S3】______story. In fact, family members provide over 80 percent of the care that elderly people need. Samuel Preston, a sociologist, studied how the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the【S4】______American couple reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children. Moreover, because people today live longer after an illness than people did years ago, family members must provide long-term care. More psychologists have found that all caregivers【S5】______a common characteristic: all caregivers believe that they are the best people for the job. In other words, they all felt that they could do the job better than anyone else. Social workers【S6】______caregivers to find out why they took on the responsibility of caring for an elderly relative. Many caregivers believed they had【S7】______to help their relative. Some stated that helping others make them feel more useful. Others hoped that by helping someone now, they would deserve care when they became old and【S8】______. Caring for the elderly and being taken care of can be a【S9】______satisfying experience for everyone who might be【S10】______
A)imaginative I)average
B)grown J)included
C)similarly K)constant
D)regular L)interviewed
E)share M)mutually
F)dependent N)imaginary
G)involved O)ordinary
H)obligations
【S3】
选项
答案
N
解析
破折号后面的内容是对myth的解释说明,story需要一个形容词来修饰,所以该空应填形容词。由后面一句的意思:事实上家庭成员为老人提供了他们所需要的80%的照顾,可推测前面所说的都是假想的,所以选imaginary“假想的,虚构的”。干扰项imaginative的意思为“富于想象力的”。
