【解答例】

1.

I think old people should live with their families and I have two reasons for that.　First, old people can live safe if they are with their younger family members.　By living together, they feel less anxious even if they are in poor physical condition, for their children or grandchildren will help them.　Second, for all family members to live together in the same single house will save them a lot of money.　This is because they do not have to pay for two houses.　For these reasons, I think it is better for elderly people to live with their families.　(101 words)
