David Brown and Anne are two patients in the Adult Day Care Program at Mercy Hospitals. David Brown is seventy-two years old. He’s friendly and likes to talk. He lives with his wife in the city. But David is being forgetful. His wife says, “He’ll heat up some soup, then forget to turn off the gas.” She is sixty-one and still works. She is worried about leaving her husband alone.
Anne is eighty and lives with her 60-year-old daughter. Her daughter says that she needs a rest. “Mom follows me everywhere. She follows me when I read newspapers. I need a rest and she does, too.”
And so, several times a week, David and Anne’s families take them to the Adult Day Care Center. Many hospitals have this program. Patients e to the Center for a full or half day, from one to five days a week. All the patients live with their families and most are old people.
Mrs. Carol Johnson is the director of the Center. She says, “We are offering both the patients and their families a service of great value. Patients have the chance to get out of their houses. Husbands, wives or grown children can work or have a rest. Most important of all, families are able to stay together.”

(答案→)C
解析：
【小题1】C 细节题。根据第一段第3.4行But David is being forgetful. “He’ll heat up some soup, then forget to turn off the gas.”说明C正确。
【小题2】D 细节题。根据第二段第一行Anne is eighty and lives with her 60-year-old daughter. Her daughter says that she needs a rest.说明Anne的女儿已经厌倦了已经累了，不想在照顾她了。故D正确。
【小题3】A 细节题。根据文章第三段Many hospitals have this program.说明这样的机构是由医院搞的，故A正确。
【小题4】D 细节题。根据第三段第一行And so, several times a week, David and Anne’s families take them to the Adult Day Care Center.并没有说明一个星期六天，故D这样的说法是不成立的。
【小题5】D 细节题。根据文章最后一段可知ABC都是这样的结构的优势，但是并没有说明在这里使用最好的药物等信息，故D并不是原因。
