问题      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?
According to this passage, the old people today ______.
选项 A、often go to clubs with their brothers and sisters
B、prefer lonely life to social life
C、live more happily than their parents and grandparents
D、like to share their feeling and thoughts with other people
答案D
解析 本题为细节推理题。文章第二段指出，现代社会的家庭结构是子女长大后离家独立生活，忙于工作和自己的家庭，而且现的老人兄弟姐妹又不多。由此推断老人是由于缺乏人与人之间的感情交流才产生孤独感的。
