Not long ago, I was at a state conference (会议) with a group preparing for a week of meetings. I walked into the room where a handful of volunteers were ______ collating (装订整理) handouts. I asked if I could help. One of the ladies _____ said “Oh, no, thank you” and offered me a chair to just sit while they worked.

Then, another volunteer came into the room, saw me sitting there doing nothing and said: “Hey, Larry, come on over here. There’s work to do, and you can help.” He put a couple of chairs ______, placed two stacks of handouts on them and ______: “OK, the left sheet goes on top of the right one.”

“Fine. I can handle that,” I said. And just like that, I was now part of the team.

This member of the group saw that my ______ did not mean an inability to help. ______, I thanked him for having included me, and asked ______ motivated his action. He said: “Well, I figured ______ one more set of hands we’d finish more quickly. I was just using ______.”

I’m sure that the kind folks who initially (最初) ______ my offer of help did not mean to offend (冒犯) me. It just seemed more appropriate to them to say “No, thank you” than to stop their work and try and ______ how to include me. And that’s the real issue here. Too often, people with disabilities are _______ – within their _____ or within a social setting – because of their disability and not because of their inability.

It’s important for all of us to feel part of the group and to feel that we ______. It’s important to our self-esteem (自尊).

【名师点睛】

1.上下文对照，考查学生捕捉关键词的能力。

解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要阅读下句或者若干句才能明白。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。比如第35. 小题，考查动词词组。A. turned down调小，拒绝；B. reacted to回应；C. came across偶遇；D. defended against防守。句意：我确信最初拒绝我帮忙的人并不打算冒犯我。故选A。36. 小题，考查动词词组。A. focus on集中在；B. figure out明白，理解；C. pick out分辨出；D. refer to提到。句意：他们说“不，谢谢”比停下他们的工作，尝试着明白怎样把我包括在内似乎更合适。故选B。这两个答案必须从上下文联系才能得出准确答案。

2.设置语境，考查学生的分析推理能力。

旨在考查学生在选项都符合语法及句子结构的情况下能否利用前后语境去推断出正确答案。比如，第41小题，考查动词。A. advanced提前；B. valued评估，珍惜；C. represented代表；D. inspired鼓舞。句意：包含意味着作为一名完整的、平等的组员而被接受、被欣赏和被珍惜。故选B。

3.关注连词，考查学生对行文逻辑、句子关联的理解能力。 此项用来考查学生在缺少连词的情况想，通过阅读能否理解句子的与句子的关系，是否了解行文逻辑的要求，能否掌握表示因果、转折、并列、条件、让步等的连词的用法。比如31.小题，考查副词。A. Sooner更早； B. Later 更迟；C. However然而；D. Otherwise要不然的话。句意：后来，因为把我包括在内而感谢他。故选B。
