Lisa is ten years old. She is handicapped（殘疾的）because she has brain damage. She could not dress herself or feed herself until a year ago. Her parents loved her, but they treated her like a baby.

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

Mr Ching became a foster grandparent to Lisa a year ago. At first, Lisa was shy. She was afraid because Mr Ching was a stranger. But he came to see her three times a week. Little by little, she began to trust him.

Lisa let Mr Ching do things for her. He helped to dress her, told her stories and fed her. One day he came at lunchtime and fed her. 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 our clothes 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 treatment. Thanks to Mr Ching, she had learned to do one simple thing. She could also learn to do other simple things.

To become foster grandparents, people must be at least sixty years old and in good health. They are volunteers, so they are not paid.

Mr Ching 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!”

64. Why does Lisa need help?

65. Does Mr. Ching live with his children?

66. How often did Mr. Ching visit Lisa?

67. How can people become foster grandparents?

68. What did Mr. Ching do to help Lisa?

閱讀短文, 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問(wèn)題。

Lisa is ten years old. She is handicapped(殘疾的) because she has brain damage. She could not do even the simplest thing until a year ago. She could not comb(梳理) her hair or feed herself. Her parents loved her. And they treated her like a 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 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 handicapped children’s therapy(心理治療). 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 lunchtime and fed her. One day he handed 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, thanks to Mr. Ching. She had learned to do one simple thing. She could learn to do other simple things. Mr. Ching was trainded 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 volunteer, 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(受益). 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!”

64. Is Lisa ten years old?

65. Why does Lisa need help?      

66. How did Lisa first feel toward Mr. Ching?

67. What things do foster grandparents help handicapped children do?

68. What do you think of Mr. Ching?
