( A )

When you first meet a disabled person, what is your first reaction? Curiosity? Sympathy? If you experience any of these emotions, you are not alone.Chances are that you don’t regularly associate with someone who is disabled.Here are four points to keep in mind if you should happen to meet a disabled person.

Disabled people can lead active lives

With few exceptions, a disability does not prevent someone from working, raising a family, or taking part in social activities.Many sports and recreation programs have been adapted to a person with a disability.Instead of concentrating on the disability, look at the person the same way you would look at any normal person.

It’s all right to ask questions

Many people are afraid of offending someone by asking about their disability.When meeting them for the first time, it’s natural to be curious about who he or she is, and where they’re from.Asking questions is usually acceptable, as long as you use common sense.Don’t, for example, ask a blind person how he feeds and bathes himself.

Offer help when necessary

You see a woman in a wheelchair having trouble entering a building.It’s usually appropriate to lend a hand if someone is having obvious difficulty, but keep in mind that not everyone will be willing to accept your help.Unless the woman in the wheelchair is in danger, you do your part.

Remember that we all have obstacles to overcome

No matter who we are, each of us has a weakness or challenge to face.Like you, a disabled person would much rather be accepted for who they are, rather than be pitied.Many friends have said to me, “I often forget that you are blind.” To me, that is the top compliment (赞扬).

61.Why are you curious when you first see disabled people?

A.They can’t live normally.   B. You seldom deal with them.

C.You look down upon them.           D.They look quite different.

62.What should you do if you find a disabled person can manage it?

A.You had better lend him or her a hand.

B.You pretend that you haven’t seen him or her.

C.You should encourage him or her to try.

D.You had better leave him or her alone.

63.From this passage we learn that _______.

A. the author is blind himself

B. a disabled person needs pitying

C. not everyone has a weakness

D. some people have no difficulty
