24、(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements (No. 46 through No. 50). For each question or statement there are 4 choices. You should make the correct choice and put the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Who takes care of
25、the elderly in the United States today? The fact is that family members provide over 80% of the care that elderly people need. In most cases the elderly live in their own homes: A very small percentage of Americas elderly live in nursing homes. Samuel Preston, a sociologist at the University of Penn
26、sylvania, studied how the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the average American couple reaches about 40 years of age, their parents are usually still alive. The statistics show the change in lifestyles and responsibilities of aging (老龄化) Americans. The average middle-aged co
27、uple can look forward to caring for elderly parents sometime after their own children have grown up. Moreover, because people today live longer after an illness than people did years ago, family members must provide long-term care. These facts also mean that after caregivers provide for their elderl
28、y parents, who will eventually die, they will be old and may require care too. When they do, their spouses(配偶) will probably take care of them because they have had fewer children than their parents did. Because Americans are living longer than ever, more social workers have begun to study ways of c
29、are-giving to improve the care of the elderly. They have found that all care-givers share a common characteristic: They believe that they are the best people for the job. The social workers have also discovered three basic reasons why the caregivers take on the responsibility of caring for an elderl
30、y, dependent relative. Many caregivers believe they had an obligation (职责) to help their relatives. Some think that helping others makes them feel more useful. Others hope that by helping someone now, they will deserve care when they become old and dependent.（分数：10.00）(1).Samuel Prestons study shows

His
37、various methods of trick, which were also skills of self-protection, were so skillful and so desperate(绝望)that neither I nor any of his other adult friends were aware of his entire helplessness in face of written words until we went to dinner one night at a local restaurant, and suddenly discovered
38、that he could not read. Even here, it was not the first time we went out to eat, but something like the second or third, that Peters desperation shocked me. The first time, he was clever enough to cover the truth. He studied the menu for a moment, then looked up to the waitress and asked her if he c
39、ould have “just a coke and a hamburger“. He told me later that he had done the same thing many times before and that he had learned to act as if he were examining the menu:“ Then I ask for a coke and a hamburger. Sometimes they give me a hamburger on a plate with salad and potatoes. Then I ask them
40、for a roll and make my own hamburger. “As we began to go out to eat more frequently, Peter would ask to go to Howard Johnsons. I soon discovered the reason for his choice: The photographs, attached in cellophane (玻璃纸)containers to each of the standard items on the menu, could help him not to struggl
41、e with the shape of words at all.

47、tion procedure(手续),Dr. Ginoux was asked to prepare a list of all the operations performed in the previous seven years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case,
48、she should have given one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have. Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgmen
49、t? For the first time, Dr. Cinoux felt lonely and isolated. The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered if a “country doctor“ had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.（分数：10.00）(1).Dr. Ginoux was working in _.A. a large city B. the American College of SurgeonsC. an a
