Ⅳ. 阅读理解：
In the old days，children were familiar with birth and death as part of life．This is perhaps the first generation of American youngsters(年轻人)who have never been close by during the birth of a baby and have never experienced the death of a family member．
Nowadays when people grow old，we often send them to nursing homes．When they get sick, transfer them to a hospital，where children are forbidden to visit terminally(一定时期地)ill patient even when those patients are their parents．This deprives(剥夺)the dying patient of significant family members during the last few days of his life and it deprives the children of an experience of death，which is an important learning experience．
Some of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed approximately(大约)500 terminally patients in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of more benefit，not just
them but to the members of their families as well．We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its potential outcome(结果，成果)
It is important for family members，and doctors and nurses to understand these patients’ communication in order to truly understand their needs，fears and fantasies．Most of our patients welcome another human being with whom they could talk openly，honestly and frankly about their trouble．Many of them shared with us their tremendous need to be informed，to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition and to be told when the end was near．We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to cope with the approach of death and finally to reach stage of acceptance prior to(优先的)death．
21．The elders of contemporary(当代的，同时代的)Americans____．
A．were often absent when a family member was born or dying
B．were quite unfamiliar with birth and death
C．usually witnessed the birth or death of a family member
D．had often experienced the fear of death as part of life
22．Children in American today are denied(否认，拒绝)the chance____．
A．to learn how to face death B．to visit dying patients
C．to attend to patients D．to have access to a life
23．Five hundred critically ill patients were investigated with the main purpose of______．
A． observing how they reached to the crises of death
B．helping them and their families overcome the fear of death
C． finding out their attitude towards the approach of death
D．1earning how to help them and their families
24．The need of a dying patient for company shows_______．
A．his desire for communication with other people
B．his fear of approaching death
C．his pessimistic attitude towards his condition
