    　　A four-year study done by the Infant(幼儿)Testing Center in San Francisco, California, suggests that babies feel more comfortable around other babies than with strange adults．According to the study, babies benefit by being with their fellow infants daily．While on the other hand, a baby might show fear of an adult stranger, he is likely to smile and reach out for an unfamiliar infant．By the time babies are one year old, they have begun to form friendships of a sort．

    　　The above findings, based on observation(观察)of 100 babies aged three months to three years, might prove interesting to working parents who must find day care for their babies．Family care in a private home, with several babies together, is probably the ideal way to care for babies under three．Dr Benjamin Spocks, well-known pediatrician(儿科医生)and author of books about babies, supports the idea．He says that family day care is sounder(有理由的)in theory than hiring a housekeeper or a babysitter．

    阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，然后从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。

    　　Lisa is ten years old. She is handicapped(残疾) because she has brain damage. She could not do even the most simple thing until a year ago. She could not comb her hair or feed herself. Her parents loved her. But they treated her like baby.

    　　Mr Ching has a daughter and a son. They are both grown. They live far from their father. Mr Ching felt lonely. He decided to do something about it. He decided to become a foster grandfather to a handicapped child. And that was how he met Lisa.

    　　Foster grandparents are grandparents who are not related by birth. But foster grandparents love the children they care for. They love them just as natural grandparents love their grandchildren.

    　　The foster grandparents also help the handicapped children in special ways. They help to dress and feed the children. They read to them and tell them stories. They also help with the handicapped children's therapy. Therapy is the treatment of a disease or disorder. It helps the children overcome their handicaps.

    　　Mr Ching became a foster grandparent to Lisa when she was nine years old. At first, Lisa was shy. She was afraid because Mr Ching was a stranger. But he came to see her every day. Gradually, she began to trust him.

    　　At last Lisa let Mr Ching do things for her. He came at lunch time and fed her. One day he handed her the spoon and guided it to her mouth. He told her she must learn to feed herself.

    　　“Most of that lunch ended up on us instead of in Lisa's mouth,”Mr Ching remembers.“But it was a start for Lisa. She learned to feed herself in a few months.”

    　　Then Lisa was ready for more therapy, thank to Mr Ching. She had learned to do one simple thing. She could learn to do other simple things. Mr Ching was trained to help with Lisa's therapy.

    　　To become foster grandparents, people must be at least sixty years old and in good health. They must be willing to give their time to handicapped children. They are volunteers, so they are not paid. They are given money for expenses, such as transportation.

    　　Mr Ching speaks for most foster grandparents when he says,“We all benefit. The handicapped children benefit because we help them live more useful lives. And we benefit because we know the children need us and love us. For any person, there's no greater happiness than that!”

    1．Why did Lisa need help?

    [　　]

    A．She was a baby.

    B．She had brain damage.

    C．She did not want to do anything.

    D．She was a blind girl.

    2．How often did Mr Ching visit Lisa?

    [　　]

    A．Every day.　　　　　　B．Every other day.

    C．Every week.　　　　　　D．Twice a week.

    3．Which five things do foster grandparents do for handicapped children?

    a．love them　　　　　　b．dress them

    c．live in their homes　　 d．feed them

    e．charge them money　　f．read to them

    g．tell them story　　　　h．make fun of them

    [　　]
