People with disabilities comprise a large part of the population. It is【C1】______that over 35 million Americans have physical,【C2】______. or other disabilities. 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.
In recent decades, the disability rights movement has been organized to fight【C12】______these infringements (侵害) of civil rights. Congress responded by passing major legislation recognizing people with disabilities【C13】______a protected class under civil rights statutes.
【C14】______today, people with disabilities must fight to live their lives【C15】______. 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】______.
Significant barriers,【C18】______in transportation and public awareness, prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For example, while no longer【C19】______by law from marrying, a person with no【C20】______to transportation is effectively excluded from community and social activities which might lead to the development of long-term relationships.
It will only be when public attitude advance as far as laws have that disabled people will be fully able to take their rightful place in society.

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。
