Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Ensuring that disabled people have an easy life is very important, not just because they are human, like all of us, but because their dignity and social well-being should not be ignored just because of a disability. Disabilities can occur through illness, aging, accidents and other different causes that may happen to anyone or affect us all at some stage in life. 1

We are all human beings and so have the same basic needs. But we should remember that there is a wide range of what we call a disability, and while the basic needs are all the same for everyone, the different lifestyle needs are entirely individual. 2 It is best to find out people’s needs from spending time with them.

3 Even the most attractive homes can feel like a cage, so it makes a huge difference to be able to go out to a park or a shopping center, or to plan a day trip such as a picnic or a trip to the beach. Even if a trip can only be organized one day a month, it is more than nothing and does really make a difference.

If they are interested or able, pets can be great companions. 4 Some may be able to take care of a cat or dog; some prefer goldfish or birds in a cage. Very often, people who are cared for don’t feel that they have the chance to care for someone or something else, so caring for pets can improve their confidence and/span> mental health, which can take their mind off their own troubles.

Do not let pets be their only companions. Book a regular appointment with a social worker to visit them at least once a month. This is to check on their mental and physical health as well as ways of improving their living conditions. 5

A. Plan regular trips.

B. Stay with them in a friend way.

C. It is wise to check the abilities of the individuals.

D. You won’t know if they can help if you don’t ask them.

E. It is important because they may need to talk to someone.

F. Therefore, there is no one-size-fits-all method to improve quality of life.

G. The great thing is that it is not hard to make disabled peopled lives easier.

【文章大意】残疾人也要有自己的尊严和生活，甚至工作，能让残疾人舒适得生活很重要，也是社会的一种责任，文章从几个方面介绍了怎么样让残疾人过得舒适。

【1】考查上下文理解以及逻辑推理。根据文章第一段第一句“Ensuring that disabled people have an easy life is very important, not just because they are human, … ignored just because of a disability.”可知，让残疾人舒适的生活很重要，下面几段从几个方面讲该怎么样做。本题又在段尾，故此句应承接上文。故选G。

【2】考查上下文理解以及逻辑推理。根据前一句可知，不同的个体有着不同的需求，以及后一句“最好花时间和他们在一起弄清楚人们的不同的需求”来判断，F符合语境。故选F。

【3】考查上下文理解以及逻辑推理。根据位置来判断，此题位于句首，应是总述性的一句话。再根据此段大意：走出去对残疾人来说有重大的意义。故选A。

【4】考查上下文理解以及逻辑推理。根据后面的内容：主要讲残疾人可以照顾一些动物，通过照顾动物来提高自信和精神健康状况，可知，此处讲残疾人的能力问题。故选C。

【5】考查上下文理解以及逻辑推理。根据上句“This is to check on their mental and physical health as well as ways of improving their living conditions.”可知，此处应和social worker 等类似的人有关。故选E。
