The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
翻译：伦敦养老院给老人母鸡让他们去照顾，以防止他们感到孤独。
The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use.
翻译：该项目是由当一家慈善机构构想出来的，旨在减少老人的孤独感，提升其幸福感。它还被用于帮助患有痴呆症的患者（这是一种严重的精神疾病）。养老院的工作人员报告说，在使用母鸡的养老院，药物的使用有所减少。
Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school.

翻译：“我非常喜欢这个项目。我早上坐着轮椅到那边把母鸡放出去，晚上又去那里，看到它们已睡觉了。”
“It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”
翻译：“有不同的关注点是件好事。人们常常带着他们的孩子来看这些母鸡，居民们过来坐在外面看它们。我很喜欢这些创意活动，做了件有用的事感觉很棒。”
