About half of these disabilities are "developmental", i.e., they 64 prior to the individual’s twenty second birthday, often from genetic conditions, and are 65 enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as mobility, communication, employment, etc. Most other disabilities are considered "adventitious", i.e., 66 or caused by outside forces. Prior to the 20th century, only a small percent age of people with disabilities 67 for long.

Dear Client,Office Angels Agency is advising businesses to plan as far ahead as possible to ensure guaranteed staff cover during holiday periods. There is now a serious shortage of skilled secretarial and administrative staff and this is expected to get worse over the next twelve months.Businesses which require staff with experience of specialist computer applications are the most at risk. You are advised to contact our agency well before the staffs are actually needed to be certain of filling gaps with adequately trained personnel. If you don’t, it’s almost certain that you will be left without the skills needed to keep your office running smoothly.The reason for the shortage of secretarial staff appears to be a combination of two factors. There has been an increase in the demand for secretarial services over the last few years, and at the same time there has been a lack of students deciding to choose secretarial studies.Office Angels Agency would like to emphasize that businesses should not underestimate the difficulty of getting experienced temporary staff. It is also necessary to make the point that businesses should be prepared for the fact that they may have to pay more for this kind of service in the future. What kind of serious shortage is expected to get worse over the next twelve months Shortage of skilled secretarial and ().
Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage. It is clear that human history will end; the only mystery is when. It is also clear that if the timing is left to nature (or, if you prefer, to God) and humans hang on until the bloody end, the race’s final exit will be ignoble (不光彩的). If future generations escape the saurian (蜥蜴类) agony of extinction by a wandering chunk of rock or ice, the sun’s unavoidable growth to giant hood will still burn their last successors to ashes: only cinders and gases and dust will remain. Far future generations might prolong the process by posting colonies beyond the earth’s orbit, but these would be sad outposts at the end of the solar system’s long day, clutching memories of a lost planet and of billions of sacrificed souls. The difficulties—fantastic difficulties—of interstellar (星性际的) travel might be overcome, but the mightiest of starships could do no more than defer the end of the world. An ignoble existence hopping from planet to planet—clinging to each clod until it, in its turn, was vaporized or frozen—might still be bearable were it not for the knowledge of its final uselessness. In the end, there is only death by gravity or entropy, the fiery quantum (量子) pit or the heatless grey soup. The great violinist Jascha Heifetz was great not least because he quit the concert stage at his peak, before the show became stale or the audience drifted away. To exit gracefully is sublime (美妙的), as Heifetz understood. And only one species is capable of choosing a similarly graceful exit; all others march on like robots. To call time on the human race by choice, not necessity, would be the final victory of the human spirit over animal nature, an absolute emancipation from the command of DNA. Precisely because no other known life-form could do or even conceive such a thing, humanity must. Science has revealed only one place in the universe that is hospitable to intelligent life, and humans are the only intelligence that, as far as is known, has ever enjoyed the opportunity to occupy it. If people left the stage after a reasonable run, in the fullness of time intelligence could evolve again (dolphin-people Chimp--people orchid(兰花)—people). And then, in due course, when this new species deciphered (译解) human books or reached the marker that might be left for them on the windless moon, they would know that man ended his dominion so that theirs might begin. Imagine, then, how they will regard us. It is, far and away, the greatest act of goodness ever contemplated, the ennoblement of a whole species; an act, almost, of angels. According to the passage, what might be human being’s best choice for the final exit
There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it and how to encourage a child to write without holding him back with the complexities of spelling.If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is not neat." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing. But it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors. But if his priorities had centred on the child’s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the writing would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.\ The phrase "play safe" (Sentence 1, ParA．2) probably means ().
