需要阅读理解答案详解
正文:No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world,but
estimates suggest the figure is over 450million. 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 tht 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 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 fuly 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.
