Read this section from “A Celebration of Grandfathers” to determine the central or main idea and answer the follow-up questions.
For some time we haven’t looked at these changes and needs of the old ones. The American image created by the mass media is an image of youth, not of old age. It is the beautiful and the young who are praised in this society. If analyzed carefully, we see that same damaging thought has crept into the way society views the old. In response to the old, the mass media have just created old people who act like the young. It is only the healthy, pink-cheeked, outgoing, older persons we are shown in the media. And they are always selling something, as if an entire generation of old people were salesmen in their lives. Commercials show very lively old men, who must always be in excellent health according to the new myth, selling insurance policies or real estate as they are out golfing; older women selling coffee or toilet paper to those just married. That image does not illustrate the real life of old ones.
Answer Options:
1. Our modern society view is keeping us from understanding them
2. Old people encourage and praise young people but secretly envy them, too.
3. Young people can learn life lessons from older people.
4. Commercials today present a positive, encouraging view of old age.
