A．To ensure the safety of others.

　　B．To ensure the security of the Castle.

　　C. To prevent them from disturbing others.

　　D. To prevent the use of the built-in cameras.

　　（C） Until late in the 20th century, most Americans

　　spent time with people of different generations.

　　Now middle-aged Americans may not keep in

　　touch with old people until they are old themselves.

　　That’s because we group people by age. We put our three-year-olds together in day-care centers, our 13-year-olds in schools and sports activities, and our 80-year-olds in senior citizen homes. Why?

　　We live away from the old for many reasons. Young people sometimes avoid the old to get rid of fears of aging and dying. It is much harder to watch someone we love disappear before our eyes. Sometimes it’s so hard that we stay away from the people who need us the most.

　　Fortunately, some of us have found our way to the old. And we have discovered that they often save the young.

But the reporter baked banana bread for the neighbors and had her children deliver it and visitthem.
