Read the following conversation and answer the question. M: Today, we have Professor McKay on our morning talk show. Good morning, Professor McKay. I've heard that you and your team have just completed a report on old age. W: That's right. Well, the report basically look into the various beliefs that people hold about old age and tries to prove them. M: And what do you think your report can achieve? W: We hope that it will somehow help people to change their feelings about old age. The problem is that far too many of us believe that most old people are poor, lonely, and unhappy. As a result, we tend to find old people, as a group, unattractive. And this is very dangerous for our society. M: But surely we cannot escape the fact that many old people are lonely and many are sick. W: No, we can't. But we must also remember that the proportion of such people is no greater among the 60-70 age group than among the 50-60 age group. M: In other words, there is no more mental illness, for example, among the 60s-70s than among the 50s-60s. W: Right! M: Are people's mental abilities affected by old age? W: Certain changes do take place as we grow older, but this happens throughout life. These changes are very gradual and happen at different times with different people, but, in general, if you know a person well in his middle age and have seen how he deals with events and problems, you will easily recognize him in an old age. M: So that someone who enjoys new experiences, travel, education, and so on in his middle years will usually continue to do so into old age? W: Exactly. Question: What does Professor McKay think the report can achieve? - Arise people's awareness of caring for the old. - Encourage people to be more responsible for the old. - Help people change their feelings about old age.
Help people change their feelings about old age.

Read the following conversation and answer the question. Sam: Hey, Henry, how's everything going, and what's with the flowers? Henry: They're for my wife. Sam: Oh, a wedding anniversary or something? Henry: To tell the truth, it couldn't be worse. [Oh]. You see, I have to pick my wife up from the airport this evening, but while she was gone, there were a few minor mishaps. Sam: Oh really? What happened? Henry: Well, I had some of the guys over Friday night to watch a basketball game on TV, but one of them got all excited, and started horsing around, waving his arms, and he accidentally knocked over my wife's 250-year old Chinese porcelain vase given to her [Oh no!], given to her by her grandmother, and broke it beyond repair. Sam: Man, have you tried ... Henry: ... super glue? Yeap, but she would be able to tell in a second I was trying to pull something over her eyes. Sam: Oh, wow. You're in hot water now. Henry: If it had only been that. Sam: Oh, there's more? Henry: Yeah, you see, the water from the vase spilled all over the manuscript of a book my wife has been writing for the past two years. It blurred the ink over many of the pages. [Oh no.] And so one of the guys had the bright idea of drying the pages by the fire while we watched, uh, the rest game, but a spark from the fire must have blown out and burned the manuscript to a crisp. Sam: But what about an electronic file copy? Had one, didn't she? Henry: Well, actually, her computer crashed the day before while I was playing some computer games, and I haven't been able to get it to work since. Sam: Man, are you in trouble now. [I know.] You're going to have a hard time digging yourself out of this one. [Yeah.] Ah, so I get it now. You're buying the flowers for her as a part of some kind of peace offering, right? Henry: No, not at all. They're for my funeral. Sam: [laughter] Question: The vase broke when one of Henry's friends: - hit it with a ball. - accidentally dropped it. - bumped into it with his arm.
