The Importance of Accessibility Awareness

? At a recent Teen Leadership of Jewish Family Services meeting, people with disabilities talked about their lives. ? 1.? However, what amazed me most was the great importance of education about handicap accommodations (残疾人便利设施).

? One school-teacher who is blind, and a woman who has used a wheelchair all her life are two important members of the National Group for Disabled Persons, devoted to raising awareness about disabilities. ? 2.? These include handicap parking spots, handrails, and wheelchair ramps. One big concern is the people who take advantage of aids, such as handicap parking spaces.????????????? ? 3.? And the meeting focused on educating the public.

? Some handicap spots have extra room next to them, marked with the “No Parking” signs. “As long as I'm not in the spot, I can take the no-parking area next to it,” some people say. However, the woman who uses a wheelchair disagrees to this. The space exists to allow someone in a wheelchair to have room to get in or out of their car. ? 4.?

? Some walkways have handrails next to them to help those who require extra assistance. Whether it is a blind person seeking guidance or an elderly person seeking support, the rail is there for walking. Sometimes the rail is blocked, by a parked bicycle for instance, and consequently made useless. ? 5.? People who are informed of the rail’s use would be less likely to mistake it for a bike rack.

? Meeting some of the people who are affected by the lack of education about accommodations made me see that there is work to be done. If more people were educated about the proper uses of accommodations, there would be fewer challenges for people with physical disabilities.

A. Accommodations will vary according to the needs of the disabled.

B. As with the parking spot, this is more likely a case of lack of education.?

C. They educate about all the accommodations for people with disabilities.?

D. Improvement must be made so that disabled people can fully participate.

E. If there is a car in that space, the handicap parking spot is no longer useful.

F. So people without disabilities need to be educated about these accommodations.

G. I was amazed to hear about the challenges faced by people with physical disabilities.

试题分析：有许多的残疾人便利设施经常被人们占用，比如停车、停放自行车等，这严重影响了残疾人的出行。对公众开展残疾人便利设施的使用方面的教育是很有必要的。

1.根据“people with disabilities talked about their lives ...the great importance of education about handicap accommodations”可知，第一段讲的是有关残疾人的事情，G项“身体残疾的人所面对的困难让作者感到吃惊”符合段意，故选G。

2.根据“devoted to raising awareness about disabilities ...These include handicap parking spots, handrails, and wheelchair ramps.”可知，这个组织致力于提高残疾人使用便利设施的意识，C“他们教育残疾人使用便利设施的方法”符合段意，故选C。

3.根据“One big concern is the people who take advantage of aids, such as handicap parking spaces. ...And the meeting focused on educating the public”可知，人们往往会占用残疾人便利设施，对大众的教育是会议的焦点，故选F。

4.根据“The space exists to allow someone in a wheelchair to have room to get in or out of their car.”可知，E“如果那里停着一辆车，残疾人停车区域就派不上用场了”与上文连接最紧密，故选E。

5.根据“Sometimes the rail is blocked, by a parked bicycle for instance, and consequently made useless. ...People who are informed of the rail’s use would be less likely to mistake it for a bike rack.”可知，残疾人专用扶手有时会被自行车等占用，而知道这种扶手的用途的人是不会去占用的，由此可见，对公众的教育很有必要，故选B。
