问题 Elderly people respond best to a calm and unhurried environment. This is not always easy to provide as their behavior can sometimes be irritating. If they get excited or upset then they may become more confused and more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be extremely difficult, it is best to be patient and not to get upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary. Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. You must use every opportunity to provide information but remember to keep it simple and straight forward. "Good morning, Mum. This is Fiona, your daughter. It is eight o′clock, so if you get up now, we can have breakfast downstairs." When the elderly person makes confused statements, e.g. about going out to his or her old employment or visiting a dead relative, correct in a calm matter-of-fact fashion: "You don′t work in the office any more. You are retired now. Will you help me with the dishes?" We rely heavily on the information provided by signposts, clocks, calendars and newspapers. These assist us to organize and direct our behavior. Confused old people need these aids all the time to compensate for their poor memory. Encourage them to use reminder boards or diaries for important coming events and label the contents of different cupboards and drawers. Many other aids such as information cards, old photos, scrap books, addresses or shopping lists could help in individual case. The passage gives help for one responsible for an elderly forgetful person by___________.
选项 A.removing some of his or her worries about the jobB.suggesting sensible things to do in these circumstancesC.providing ideas that help in recovering the lost memoryD.explaining the causes of loss of memory

解析细节题。根据第二段“Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted．The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on．You must use every opportunity to provide information…”可知，对待健忘的老人，我们应该为他们提供信息，帮助他们搞清楚情况，故C项与原文相符。
