Ⅱ. 阅读理解。
Phyllis Ramberg, 85, lives alone in Hyattsville, Maryland, in the same house for many decades. “Children keep asking me, ‘When are you going to move to one of those retirement villages?’ I say, ‘No, no. My friends are here,’” Ramberg said. “I’ve got everything I need, right in this neighbourhood.” A year ago, Ramberg was able to take care of her backyard. This year, she just can’t do it herself. “When illnesses happen, you just don’t have the capability that you thought you had before,” she said.
That’s where “Aging in Place”, a non-profit organization, comes in. Founder Lisa Walker says she and her friends are among the seven percent of Hyattsville residents who are 65 or older. “A number of my neighbours are also around my age,” Walker said. “We started talking about some of the concerns we had. Several of us had had issues with parents that were getting older and they were far away from them and didn’t know how to take care of them or get support.”
Seniors can call Walker’s organization with a request, such as, asking for someone to shop for groceries, do small chores around the house or drive them to the doctor. Then a volunteer is assigned to provide the help. Most of the calls are for rides to the doctor. “They take me to all my medical appointments,” said Louise Battiste, who is almost 90.
Aging in Place volunteer Sally Middlebrooks says that a review of new volunteers’ background, such as driving records and any criminal history is just as important as the training they receive. “We want the seniors, people we call neighbours, to be sure that they are with safe, reliable people who are also caring people,” Middlebrooks said.
The volunteers also gain some benefits. “I’ve learned how to stay connected to people, our family and friends,” Walker said. “Do I stay close to them? Do I try to keep myself devoted to the community, relating to people younger than I am?” Middlebrooks said. “I’m learning a lot about this whole process of aging, and I’m learning, to my alarm, that it’s very difficult. But I’m also meeting people who amaze me with their flexibility, their sense of humour and their ability to stay very much alive despite aches and pains.”
Not all volunteers are retired. Courtney Wattai, 24, is a graduate student at American University in Washington who studies care-giving and plans to have a career working with seniors. “That’s kind of what I want to do because I want to make sure I’m able to improve their lives,” Wattai said. “I want to be involved in their lives, not just sitting at a desk doing things. I thought this would be a good way to give tribute to my grandparents and what they had done for me and my brother.”
It makes Walker happy to see the younger generation stepping up. She hopes that’s how residents in her neighbourhood will always care for each other.
1. Why do people who want to be volunteers need to be checked?
A. Aging in Place plans for them to have a career working with seniors.
B. Aging in Place wants to make sure the volunteers are qualified for their work.
C. Seniors in the neighbourhood just don’t have the capability that they had before.
D. Aging in Place makes volunteers get connected to people, their family and their friends.
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句中“‘... to be sure that they are with safe, reliable people who are also caring people’”判断,这一组织希望确保志愿者能够胜任他们的工作。故选B。
答案:B
2. What does the author want to show in paragraph 5 by quoting Walker and Middlebrooks?
A. Staying connected to people is volunteers’ responsibility.
B. The old people’s ability of surviving the hardships is amazing.
C. The work of caring for the old also brings good to the volunteers.
D. The process of aging is very difficult for the volunteers to understand.
解析:细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“The volunteers also gain some benefits.”可知,志愿者工作也会带来好处。故选C。
答案:C　　　　　　　　　　
3. What does the underlined word “tribute” mean in paragraph 6?
A. Aid. B. Care.
C. Award. D. Respect.
解析:词义猜测题。根据第六段最后一句“‘I thought this would be a good way to give tribute to my grandparents and what they had done for me and my brother.’”可知,年轻的研究生瓦泰认为他做志愿者工作是对祖父母的一种尊重,也是对祖父母为他和弟弟付出的一种尊重。由此可知画线词的意思是“尊重”。故选D。
答案:D
4. What is Walker’s attitude to the future of Aging in Place?
A. Optimistic. B. Concerned.
C. Doubtful. D. Pessimistic.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,年轻一代也加入了这一志愿组织,令瓦尔克非常高兴,由此判断,她对这一组织的未来持乐观态度。故选A。
答案:A
