• 2．No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world，but estimates （估计） 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 has 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 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 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 barriers.Next time you go shopping or go to work or 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 barriers：prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably （不可避免地） represents by far the greatest barrier of all.It is almost impossible for the ablebodied 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，that counts.
  
  （1）The first paragraph points out that

  .
  A．there are many disabled people in the world
  B．the number of disabled people in India is the greatest
  C．India has much more disabled people than Canada
  D．it is impossible to get an exact figure of the world's disabled people
  （2）Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage？

  
  A．Even the ablebodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.
  B．There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK.
  C．The whole society should pay attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.
  D．There no longer exists prejudice against the disabled.
  （3）It can be inferred from the passage that

  .
  A．we should try our best to prevent disablement
  B．both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down
  C．we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled
  D．the ablebodied people will never fully understand the disabled

• 3．Having a great collection of books at home doesn't really mean that you are a person who has a passion for literature and reading.It can be a family inheritance（继承） or it can be just to impress people around you about the fact that you are a person of culture.On the other hand，there are many persons who cannot afford to buy books，because some of them are quite expensive，but they usually go to libraries and spend hours reading something that interests them a lot，or just borrow books to read at home.
     From my point of view，literature is very important in our lives from several points of view.For example，reading is a means of gaining culture and enriching our knowledge in different areas of activjye.aiies.It can help us have a great imagination and it makes things easier when it comes to making compositions on different themes.It gives you the possibility to speak about science，even if you don't work in this field，or you can express your opinion about a political aspect，just because you have read something connected to that.
     Secondly，literature offers us the possibility to enter the world of imagination，and to leave apart the real one for a couple of hours.We come to meet kings and queens many years ago，dream in the world of the rich or imagine how life will be in the future.Sometimes，we identify ourselves with the characters in the stories we read and they can give us some clues to solve our problems and how to react in certain circumstances.
     To conclude，I would like to say that literature is the perfect means to enrich our culture，to express correctly and have a rich vocabulary，to be able to interfere（干涉） in conversations in different fields of interest and to really be considered an erudite person.
  
  （1）The people who are fond of literature are those that

  .
  A．go to libraries on weekends
  B．buy expensive books in the bookstore
  C．keep many books in their studies
  D．have much interest in reading
  （2）We can learn from the third paragraph that

  .
  A．we can bring kings and queens back to life
  B．what we read can be useful in our daily life
  C．it is very good for us to stay alone for some hours
  D．we can make friends with the people in the stories
  （3）The underlined word "erudite" in the last paragraph probably means

  .
  A．hard-working
  B．enthusiastic
  C．learned
  D．creative
  （4）What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？

  
  A．To advise readers to like reading.
  B．To explain the true meaning of reading.
  C．To tell readers how to read a book.
  D．To tell readers who has the real passion for literature.
