19、ow cultures view and treat their elderly is closely linked to their most prized values and qualities.1.In the US and UK,Protestantism (新教) is at play.Western cultures tend to be youth-centric,stressing qualities like independence.2. It ties a persons value to his or her ability to worksomething that

20、 becomes weaker in old age.As their health becomes worse,the elderly in these cultures often move to old peoples homes and nursing homes.In France,parents are protected by law.It is difficult to imagine an Elderly Rights Law being a focus in the laws of many Western cultures.France did,however,pass

21、a similar law in 2004.3. One was a group of official statistics showing France had the highest rate of pensioner suicides in Europe,and the other was the aftermath of a heat wave that killed 15,000 people,most of whom were elderly and had been dead for weeks before they were found.4. Native American

22、 cultures traditionally accept death as a fact of life.In many Native American areas,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.The way to care for Ch

23、inese elders is changing.Chinese families traditionally view respect for ones elders as the highest virtue,according to the Confucian tradition.Adult children are generally expected to care for their parents in their old age.5.

26、位。1.C全文围绕“HowtheElderlyAreTreatedAroundtheWorld”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“IntheUSandUK,Protestantism(新教)isatplay.Westernculturestendtobeyouth-centric,stressingqualitieslikeindependence.”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。

27、前后句复现的Protestant是关键词。3.F根据后面的“one.theother.”提到的两个事件可以推断,这与F项中的twodisgustingevents相匹配。故选F项。4.E根据第四段内容尤其是“.eldersarerespectedfortheirwisdomandlifeexperiences.WithinNativeAmericanfamilies,itscommonfortheelderstobeexpectedtopassdowntheirlearningtoyoungermembersofthefamily.”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。
