题目内容
1.A current topic of debate is the amount of support and services we are willing to provide for disabled people.Many people believe that society has become more caring over the old.However,if we look back in time,this may not prove to be true.A good example can be found by looking at some remains(遗骸) of a prehistoric culture.Several skeletons(骨架) were found in the Shanidar Cave in Iraq.It was the home of a tribe (部落) of Neanderthals who existed more than 40 000 years ago.One of these skeletons was a man about 40years old,an old age for that period.He is thought to have been killed by a falling stone.Careful study of the bones has shown that the man's right arm had never fully developed and had been cut off below the elbow(肘).The condition of the teeth was also unlike that of other Neanderthal men's.They showed signs of excessive(过多)use,as if they had been used to make up for the lack of a right arm.
How could someone so disabled from his earliest years have survived to become an adult,and even live on to old age?Societies in such early times faced severe conditions.People who could hunt for meat were few.A disabled person must have needed to keep close to the cave and been provided with meat.In fact,more care were shown towards this disabled man during that time,which suggests that the ancient people did better in caring their disabled people than we do in present-day societies.Such concern indicates a sense of unity(团结) and cooperation that made possible the future achievements of humanity.With this in mind,are we doing enough for the disabled?Rather than being too proud of the efforts that modern society has made,it would be wise to consider if we even equal the efforts of the old societies.
