(25)Passage OneNo one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million
11、. 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
12、 hearing or have failing 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 disa
13、bled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by peoples attitude towards them. Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up
14、steps, or on to 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 barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for t
15、he able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts. 1. The first paragraph points out that_. A. there are many disabled people
16、 in the worldB. the number of disabled people in India is the greatestC. India has much more disabled people than CanadaD it is impossible to get an exact figure of the worlds disabled people2.

B. there are about l0 percent disabled persons in the UK. C. the whole society, should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the disabled peopleD
18、. there still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorancePassage TwoOn Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with her money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the over-60s Club. She always went there on
19、 Thursdays. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone. At six oclock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign
20、 of forced entry. Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door-“a master key” perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed a
21、s usual, but she didnt go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait. It was just after four oclock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and th
22、en she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and
23、 poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet. 4. Mrs. Clarke looked forward to Thursday because_. A. she worked at a club on
24、that dayB. she visited her relatives on ThursdaysC. she visited a club on ThursdayD a special visitor came on Thursday5. If someone had made a forced entry_. A.

26、e refused to open the doorB. when the mans glove dropped offC. because it was too hot to holdD. because the man just wanted to get awayPassage ThreeThe economy of the United States after 1952 was the economy of a well-fed, almost fully employed people. Despite occasional alarms, the country escaped
27、any postwar depression and lived in a state of boom. An economic survey of the year 1955, a typical year of the 1950s, may be typical as illustrating the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was valued at l0 percent above that of 1954(1955 output was estimated at 392 billion doll
28、ars). The production of manufacturers was about 40 percent more than it had averaged in the years immediately following World War Two. The countrys business spent about 30 billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National income available for spending was almost a third greater than it had b
29、een in 1950. Consumers spent about 256 billion dollars; that is about 700 million dollars a day, or about twenty-five million dollars every hour, all round the clock.
