No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the number 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 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 on to buses or 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, that counts.
Which of the following statements is NOT true?
选项
A、Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.
B、There are about 10 percent disabled people in the United Kingdom.
C、The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by disabled people.
D、There still exists prejudice against the disabled that is easy to break down.
答案
D
解析
事实细节题。由最后一段第四句“…prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all.”可知,对残疾人的歧视依然是当今最难忽视的障碍,所以D项说法不正确。
