应该先找出文章说明了一种什么现象，分析产生这种现象的原
因，结果如何，或者针对这种现象提出解决措施或建议。即：
现象＋原因＋结果(措施或建议)。阅读下面短文，然后分别以约 30 词概括这两篇说明文的主要内容。(1) While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged,
loneliness is another problem they may face.Of all the reasons that
explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between
parents and their children is the major one.This phenomenon iscommonly known as “Empty Nest Syndrome (综合症)”． In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many
young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with
no clear idea of when they will return home.Their parents spend
countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the
hope that some day their children will come back to stay with
them.The fact that most of these young people have gone to
Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they
will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they
had not left their countries.Whatever the case, it has been noted that
the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually
do.This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the
grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged
parents living by themselves. The situation in which grown-up children live far away from
their aged parents has been described as “distant parentphenomenon”， which is common both in developed countries andin developing countries.Our society has not yet been well preparedfor “Empty Nest Syndrome”． 答 案 ： ( 现 象 ) Nowadays many aged parents live alone in
loneliness ( 原因 ) because young people leave home to seek their
future far away in a more developed place, (结果) which causing anew social problem around the world.(2) Years ago it was very difficult to travel from one place to
another.The journeys were often long, tiring and dangerous.But
now people travel frequently and easily.Science has improved
transportation and communication facilities a great deal.Traveling
has become safer, more enjoyable and above all, more economical.
Traveling—whether within one's country or abroad—brings
many invaluable benefits.People travel for pleasure, business or for
education and knowledge.In the world of yesterday most people
were only able to read about strange and fascinating places acrossthe mountains and seas.Later, with the coming of the cinema and
television, man's curiosity about faraway places with strange
sounding names was further stirred up.Today man's curiosity can be
satisfied in luxurious comfort.There are first-class ships and
airplanes to take him where his dreams lie. We travel to increase our knowledge of the world in which we
live.Knowledge obtained from books alone is not enough.New
knowledge of different lands and people enriches our mind and
soul.Books generally do not give us a very true picture of lands
beyond our shores.Some of them are even misleading. 答 案 ： ( 原 因 ) With the development of science, ( 现 象 )
transportation makes people travel a lot with comfort, (结果) whichbrings lots of benefits like satisfying man's curiosity and increasing
man's knowledge of the world.
