问题    No one knows exactly how many disabled (残废的) people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure 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 (可动的), 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.
   Friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or onto buses and 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, which counts.
选项 A、the exact number of disabled people in the world is 450 million
B、the number of disabled people in Canada is more than the population of India
C、there are so many disabled people in the world
D、the disabled in India is the greatest on earth
答案C
解析 从第一段我们可以看出，地球卜的残疾人人数据估计大约是450 million。所以A答案是错误的。也可以从第一段得知，印度的残疾人人数比加拿大的多，所以B答案也是错误的。至于D答案说印度是全球人口最多的国家，本文根本就没提到。所以应该选 C。
