About half of these disabilities are "developmental", i.e., they occur【C3】______to the individual’s 22nd birthday, often from genetic conditions, and are【C4】______enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as mobility, communication, employment, etc. 【C5】______other disabilities are considered "adventitious", i.e.,【C6】______or caused by outside forces.
Prior to the 20th century, only a small percentage of people with disabilities【C7】______for long. Medical treatment for these disabilities was not【C8】______. Advancements【C9】______medicine and social services have created a climate in which people with disabilities can expect to have such basic needs as food, shelter, and medical treatment.【C10】______. these basics are often not available. Civil liberties such as the right to vote, marry, get an education, and gain employment have historically been【C11】______on the basis of disability.

It is estimated that more than half of qualified Americans with disabilities are unemployed,【C16】______a majority of those who do work are underemployed. About two-thirds live at or below the official poverty【C17】______.

选项
A、defied
B、denied
C、declined
D、deprived
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。下段提到的these infringements(侵害)of civil rights指代本句Civil liberties suchas the right to vote…disability,由此可知,此处是说公民的自由权因为残疾被侵害。由Congress responded bypassing realior legislation recognizing people with disabilities…(国会以通过认可残疾人…的重要法律的方式作为回应)可知,这里说的自由权被侵害指的是权利不被认可,故答案为[B]denied“被否认的”,同时排除[D]deprived“剥夺”,它常与of搭配使用。[A]defied“公然违抗”常用来指公开地、勇敢地反对或抵抗法律、权威人物,有时含公然挑衅之意;[C]declined“拒绝”指婉言谢绝他人的帮助或邀请等。
