Question

17．One morning in 2007．Parthasarathy---we usually called him Partha．---came to meet me．He was disabled and was not an engineer but had majored in a computer course in college．I told Partha，"I'd like to employ people like you．"In fact，it turned out to be the right decision to employ him．Partha had an amazing enthusiasm and his disability did not stop him from improving himself．I was not doing any charity by employing him because my company benefited more from Partha．I have realized that physically challenged people are more faithful than others but unfortunately we usually pay scant attention to them．
At that time our office was on the first floor and Partha had difnculty dealing with the stairs．Seeing him struggle．I decided to make the entire office disabled-friendly．Our ground floor is now intended for the disabled people，and we have special toilets for them．We have also built houses for them near the office so that they can avoid long travelling hours．
After meeting Partha，I decided to hire more disabled people．We waited six months to get another disabled person who then became our receptionist．
I don't regard employing disabled people as charity．I consider it my responsibility．The country has spent much money educating me and I feel it is time for me to do something as a reward．
It is great to work with them．Seeing them work，get married，settle in life and have children is a wonderful experience．
We have 550employees now，and 20percent of them are disabled．We go to Engineering Colleges looking for disabled people but onty to find one or two in each college．Parents don't send them out．The biggest challenge for the physically disabled is the attitude of their parents，but we hire them even if they are not engineers．

56．What kind of person was Partha？（No more than 10words）
Partha was disabled but didn't stop improving himself．
57．What does the underlined word"scant"in the 1^st paragraph mean？（No more than 2words）

58．Why is the ground floor intended for the disabled people？（No more than l2words）
Because the disabled have difficulty dealing with the stairs．
59．How many disabled workers are there in the writer's company now？（No more than 2words）
110
60．Do you agree to the writer's plan to employ more disabled people？And why？（No more than 30words）
Yes．Because it is our duty to reward the country and the disabled need chances to make full use of their skills to improve themselves．．

Answer 1

分析 文章介紹作者的公司聘用了一些殘疾人，這不是做慈善，作者認(rèn)為身體殘疾的人比其他人更加有信念，而且這也是他回報(bào)社會的方式．

解答 56．Partha was disabled but didn't stop improving himself．細(xì)節(jié)題：從第一段的句子：Partha had an amazing enthusiasm and his disability did not stop him from improving himself．可知Partha是個(gè)殘疾人，但是沒有停止提高自己．
57．Little．/Not enough．猜詞題：從第一段的句子：I have realized that physically challenged people are more faithful than others but unfortunately we usually pay scant attention to them．可知作者認(rèn)為身體殘疾的人比其他人更加有信念，但是我們不夠關(guān)注他們．從but unfortunately看出這個(gè)單詞的意思是"Little．/Not enough"．
58．Because the disabled have difficulty dealing with the stairs．細(xì)節(jié)題：從第三段的句子：At that time our office was on the first floor and Partha had difnculty dealing with the stairs．Seeing him struggle．I decided to make the entire office disabled-friendly．Our ground floor is now intended for the disabled people，可知作者的公司的第一層為殘疾人設(shè)計(jì)，因?yàn)樗麄兣罉翘莶环奖?br />59.110．細(xì)節(jié)題：從最后一段的句子：We have 550 employees now，and 20 percent of them are disabled．可知作者的公司有110個(gè)殘疾人．
60．Yes．Because it is our duty to reward the country and the disabled need chances to make full use of their skills to improve themselves．這是一道開放題，考生可以自由發(fā)揮，但是提倡積極的答案．
