I can clearly remember the moment I realised that people were frightened of my brother. I was 18, and my boss at the time was telling me that, a few days earlier, he had taken his little girl down to the local playground. My brother, who loves playing and is severely autistic (孤僻的), had been there. “I was frightened that he would hurt my little girl,” he told me.

I'm still not sure why he told me this. Perhaps he was admitting his own weaknesses, but to me it felt like an attack. It made my heart hurt that my gentle brother should inspire fear like that. It made me angry that this man felt his ignorance was worth sharing.

I imagine the anger and hurt I felt then is something similar to how the parents of Faruk Ali are feeling, days after their autistic son was beaten in the street by two police officers as he was outside his house, helping to collect rubbish. Collecting rubbish probably made him happy. Many autistic people enjoy organising and systematising, and his simple enjoyment of this task being interrupted in such a seemingly violent way simply because he looked “suspicious (可疑的)” must have hurt him badly.

Disabled people and their relatives will be aware of the fear and ignorance that the general public may have. That this can sometimes turn into violence is absolutely terrifying. Andrew Young, a man with Asperger's syndrome, a kind of autism, was killed after pointing out that cycling on the pavement was dangerous. Some people with Asperger's believe that it is very important to follow rules, but telling someone so can be interpreted as “threatening”, as his killer said.

Obviously, it's not just tough for those with autism, but people with mental illness, people who have mobility problems, basically anyone whose behaviour might not fit the majority definition of “normal”.

There was something else I felt that day. It was shame. The shame that my brother and by extension we were different from the others, and that our differences caused them discomfort. I never want to feel that way again, nor should anyone else.

24. The author was sad because he was told that _____.

A. his brother appeared dangerous

B. his boss had hurt his brother

C. his boss decided to fire him

D. his brother was frightened

25. What is the author's attitude towards Faruk Ali?

A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Admiring. D. Sympathetic.

26. The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to “_____”.

A. a serious crime

B. a danger to public health

C. violence against disabled people

D. discrimination against disabled people

27. The author hopes that people can _____.

A. forgive his brother B. respect disabled people

C. define “normal” differently D. realize the importance of rules

C

More than four in 10 cancers — 600,000 in the UK alone — could be prevented if people led healthier lives, say experts. The population of the UK is about 63,000,000.

Latest figures from Cancer Research UK show smoking is the biggest avoidable risk factor , followed by unhealthy diets. It advises people to live healthily, limit alcohol intake and do regular exercise.

According to the figures from 2007 to 2011, more than 300,000 cases of cancer recorded were linked to smoking. A further 145,000 were linked to unhealthy diets containing too much processed food. Obesity contributed to 88,000 cases and alcohol to 62,200. Sun damage to the skin and physical inactivity were also contributing factors.

Professor Max Parkin, a Cancer Research UK researcher, says: “There's now little doubt that certain lifestyle choices can have a big influence on cancer risk, with research around the world all pointing to the same key risk factors.

“Of course everyone wants to enjoy some extra treats during the Christmas holidays so we don't want to ban beef pies and wine but it's a good time to think about taking up some healthy habits for 2015.

“Leading a healthy lifestyle can't guarantee someone won't get cancer but we can stack the odds in our favour by taking positive steps.”

Public Health England says a healthy lifestyle can play an important role in reducing cancer risk. It says campaigns such as Smokefree, Dry January and Change4Life Sugar Swaps all aim to raise public awarene
