21、erly in these cultures often move to old peoples homes and nursing homes.

27、 World”展开论述,C项“以下是我们可以从其 他文化中学习到的对待老年人的方法”既满足全文主旨,又能引出后文。故选 C项。 2.G 根据上文“In the US and UK,Protestantism (新教) is at play.Western cultures tend to be youth- centric,stressing qualities like independence.”可知,本段主旨是讲英美两国对待老人受到新教影响。所 以西方文化往往以年轻人为中心,强调个人主义和独立自主等特质。G项“这一点与新教工作伦理有 关”符合此处过渡。前后句复现的 Protestant是

28、关键词。 3.F 根据后面的“one.the other.”提到的两个事件可以推断,这与 F项中的 two disgusting events 相 匹配。故选 F项。 4.E 根据第四段内容尤其是“.elders are respected for their wisdom and life experiences.Within Native American families,its common for the elders to be expected to pass down their learning to younger members of the family.”可知,在许多美洲土著地区,老年人因其智慧和生活经验而受到尊重。在美国 土著家庭中,人们通常希望长者把他们的知识传授给家庭中的年轻成员。因而 E项“美洲土著的长者 传授他们的知识”最符合本段主题句。 5.A 本段主要讲述了在中国,照顾老人的方式正在发生改变。按照中国儒家传统,中国家庭将孝顺和 尊敬老师视为做人的最高美德。成年子女通常需要照看年迈的父母。但是现在养老院成为更被人 接受的养老选择。 A项“但由于预期寿命增加和人口老龄化,这种传统在中国开始瓦解”既解释了其 中的原因又承接了上文,符合行文逻辑。
