No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but the number may be 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 (可動的) , hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.
Disablement can take many forms and happen 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 disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people’s attitude(態(tài)度) towards them.
　　Disabled people face many physical barriers(障礙). Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine what would you do if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. What would you do if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice(偏見)can be even harder to break down and ignorance (無知) represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully understand what the disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person(個人) and their ability, not their disability, which counts.
小題1:The first paragraph points out that ___________.
A．it is possible to get an exact number of the world’s disabled people
B．there are many disabled people in the world
C．the number of disabled people in India is the greatest
D．India has not much more disabled people than Canada
小題2:The key word in Paragraph 4 is ___________.
A．barriers B．disabledC．disability D．prejudice
小題3: Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A．There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK.
B．The whole society should pay more attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.
C．Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.
D．There is still prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorance.
小題4:It can be concluded（推斷）from the passage that ___________.
A．we should try our best to prevent disablement
B．we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled
C．the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled
D．both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down

I study in a junior high school . I think students shouldn’t be allowed to surf the Internet . Surfing the Internet wastes a lot of time , so the students spend less time doing their homework . Also many students lose themselves in playing the computer games . In their minds , games are everything and they keep on playing the games for hours . That’s too bad for their study and their health .
Jimmy
  I don’t agree with Tracy . In my opinion , surfing the Internet can help us a lot . For example , I often get help from the Internet . I’m weak in learning English . When I have trouble in learning English, I can get on line to ask for help . Always I can get the answers soon . In this way , I have made great progress .Thanks to the Internet .
 Jeff
   Yes , I have the same opinion as Jimmy . My son , Bob studies very hard . After hours of working hard , he usually feels tired . If he goes on with his study , he will feel stressed out . So I often ask him to surf the Internet to listen to some light music . It can help him relax and he will study better later on .

Do you know how to write an English letter?
When we write a letter in Chinese, we always put the date at the end of the letter. But it is different in English. We have to put it on the top of the right corner. And above the date, we also write the number of our house and the names of our street, city and country. To begin the letter, we always use words like “Dear sir” “Dear Mr /Miss/ Mrs…”.To the end of the letter, we usually use words like “Yours” “Yours ever” or “Truly yours”.
It is also different to write an English envelope. If you write to an Australian friend named Jane Shute, write your name and address on the top of the left corner and write hers in the middle.
