Question

【題目】 No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates （估計）suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have falling eyesight.

Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.

Disabled people face many physical problems. Next time you go shopping or to work or to visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or onto buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other problems: prejudice (偏見) can be even harder to break down and ignorance is undoubtedly the greatest problems of all. It is almost impossible for the normal people to fully appreciate what the severely（嚴重） disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these problems and show that it is the individual person and their ability that count, not their disability.

【答案】

【1】A

【2】B

【3】D

【4】C

【解析】

沒人知道世界上準確有多少個殘疾人，數字可能超過4.5億。在英國，十個有一人有某種殘疾，殘疾不只是發(fā)生在其他人身上的。當我們變老時，我們許多人會變的不易行動，聽力困難或視力下降。殘疾可以以任何形式發(fā)生在生命中的任一時期。殘疾人面對許多身體問題，偏見甚至更難打破，目前為止，無知是所有障礙中最具有代表性的。對于一個行動自如的身體是無法充分理解殘疾人所經歷的事情的，所以對這些問題加引關注以及展示是個人和他們的能力，不是他們的殘疾，是很重要的。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world可知沒人知道世界上準確有多少個殘疾人，故選A。

【2】詞義猜測題。根據下文Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older.“一些人出生的時候就帶有殘疾。很多人變老之后出現殘疾。”可推測是人生的不同階段都有可能出現殘疾。因此occur的含義為“出現；發(fā)生”。故選B。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。第四段第一句Disabled people face many physical problems.點明主旨，意為“殘疾人面對許多身體問題”，本段主要介紹殘疾人面臨的問題。故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據It is almost impossible for the normal people to fully appreciate what the severely（嚴重） disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these problems and show that it is the individual person and their ability that count, not their disability.可知作為一個正常人都很難經歷殘疾人經歷的，因此關注殘疾人的問題很重要，發(fā)現的是他們的能力并不是他們的殘疾。因此可推斷作者要我們以正確的觀點看待殘疾人。故選C。
