My family started   44  nursing homes. It took us weeks before final decision. My grandfather would have to 45 there until he improves，both mentally and physically.

Watching my family deal with my grandfather made me aware of the care and   46 the elderly need and I realized how 47 it is to volunteer at a local nursing home.

Since summer I have volunteered at his nursing home 48 I saw how lonely some of the residents (居住者）were. I have learned many things about nursing homes and the factors to consider when 49 one, including the residents’ quality of life, the care received, the 50 surrounding them, and the payment policy.

I have been    51     with the recreation (*）director, with whom I plan activities for the residents. I have painted the women’s nails and read them 52 from their children. Also, I have helped with    53     days like Ice Cream Day and Summer Picnic Day.

Through my volunteering I have made a new friend — Irene. She has two sons who 54 visit. Her grandchildren, however, do visit every weekend. Our friendship grew through the 55 I have had many good experiences both        56     and visiting my grandfather. My volunteer experience has shown me that I can bring 57 to older people.

Everyone will have to 58 having parents and grandparents growing older and becoming dependent on their 59     .  Dealing with this situation       has made me a stronger and more 60 person.
