Passage Three

No one knows exactly how many disabled (残废的) people there are in the world, but estimates 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 (可动的), 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 to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up 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 the 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.

41. The first paragraph points out that ______.

A. it is possible to get an exact figure of the world's disabled people

B. there are many disabled people in the world

C. the number of disabled people in India is the greatest

D. India has not much more disabled people than Canada

People, in different parts of the world have very different ideas about what is good to ea

t. Even when people in different countries eat the same food, they often prepare it very differently. If you were in Germany, you would find soup that is thick and heavy. If you were in China, you would find soup that is thin and clear. On holidays most of us eat special foods. Year after year, even if many other things change, the food is always the same. Sometimes housewives begin weeks in advance to prepare the special foods that are traditionally served on certain holidays.

People in different parts of the world also have different ideas about what is good to drink. Among the most popular hot drinks are coffee and tea. Coffee is very popular in northern Europe and in the Middle East. Some people put cream and sugar in their coffee. But in the United States, many people drink their coffee "black" that is without cream or sugar. Tea is the national drink in China, Japan, and other Oriental(东方的) countries. In the Orient, people drink tea without sugar. But in England where it is also a national drink, many people use both sugar and hot or cold milk in their tea.

第10题

Many people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years

, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto (世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language.

By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto is spoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.

Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role.

Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______.

A.all people will be able to speak a common language

B.people will learn a foreign language better

C.people can understand each other better

D.people will be able to speak several languages

Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A.he wanted people to learn it quickly

B.he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn it

C.he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficulty

D.he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language

Which of the following is NOT true of English？A.It is widely taught in schools.

B.It has become a second language for many millions of people.

C.Many books have been written in English.

D.It is less popular than Esperanto.

What is the best title of the passage？A.The language made by one man.

B.A talk about the world language.

C.English as a second language for everyone.

D.Esperanto—a better language than English.
