18、lected government of Tanzania chose to expand educational opportunities by using the donation from developed countries. Financial aid might make needy countries become over-dependent on the donors because money can only solve temporary problems. International aid might bring about political interfer

19、ence and economic exploitation. If poor countries want to become richer with the help of rich countries, a condition they must accept is to buy goods from the donors.

They may miss their children, particularly when they have lived in nursing house for a long time. Many nursing houses cannot

25、offer a comfortable environment to the elderly because they do not have adequate advanced facilities. So we cant ensure that the elderly will have a high level of living condition in nursing house. Since nurses in nursing house are aiming to earn money, we should not expect that they will treat the
