         I was interested to read a newspaper article about a new concept in old people’s homes in France. The idea is simple   41  revolutionary -- combining a residential （住宅的）home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building. The children and the residents eat lunch together and   42   activities such as music, painting, gardening, and   43   for the pets which the residents are encouraged to keep. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and   44   a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always somebody attending to (照顾) him. There are trips out and birthday parties, too.

They also learn that old people are not “different” or “frightening” in   47   way. And of course, they see illness and death and learn to   48   them. The residents are happy because they feel   49   and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance, too.
