1、 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 grown children visit them only occasionally , but more often , they do not have any regular visitors. The truth is that this idea is an unfortunate myth-an imaginarystory . 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 average American couple reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children. Moreover , because people today live longer after in illness than people did yearsago , family members must provide long term care. More psychologists have found that all caregivers share 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 workersinterviewed caregivers to find out why they took on the responsibility of caring for an elderly relative . Many caregivers believed they had obligation 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 dependent. Caring for the elderly and being taken care of can be a mutually satisfying experience for everyone who might be involved.多人错误地认为,当人们到达年老时,他们的家人把他们在疗养院。他们在陌生人的手中剩下的他们的生活。他们的成年子女只是偶尔拜访他们,但更常见的是,他们没有任何的常客。事实是,这个想法是一个不幸的myth-an虚构的故事。事实上,家庭成员提供超过80%的老年人需要护理。社会学家塞缪尔·普雷斯顿,研究美国家庭是怎样变化的。他报道的美国夫妇平均达到40岁,他们的父母比孩子。此外,由于今天的人们活得更长比人在患病后年前,家庭成员必须提供长期护理。心理学家发现,所有护理人员共享一个共同的特点:所有护理人员认为他们是最好的人。换句话说,他们都觉得他们可以比任何人都更好地完成这项工作。社会工作者采访了护理人员找出为什么他们承担照顾一个老人的责任。许多护理人员认为他们有义务帮助他们相对的。一些说,帮助别人让他们觉得更有用。其他人现在希望通过帮助别人,他们都会受到保健当他们成了老和依赖。照顾老人和被照顾的感觉,可以相互令人满意的经历对每个人都可能涉及。2、 Reading involves looking at graphic symbols and formulating mentally the sounds and ideas the
