14.An unbiased observer of everyday encounters in Western societies would surely not
find many instances of unkindness by people under 65 toward people over 65.
There are undoubtedly incidents of unkindness based on age, and these warrant
reproof. However, the very fact that such reproof occurs and is generally
accepted implies that our Western societies basically respect the elderly. The
same conclusion can be drawn from a recent survey finding: 71 percent of the
under 65 population agreed with the statement that“people over 65 receive too little respect from
society”, whileonly 44 percent of the over-65 population, the target of the allegedirreverence agreed with it.
The author concludes that Western societiesbasically respect the elderly partly because
(A) people under 65 are just as kind to people over65 as they are to people of their own age group
(B) survey data suggest that fewer people over 65than under 65 get too little respect
(C) disrespect for the elderly does not go so faras to result in actual harm
(D) survey data suggest that people over 65 are
more aware of incidents involving disrespect to the elderly than are people
under 65(E)
(E) incidents of unkindness to the elderly areneither common nor generally accepted in Western societies
