英语课程计划-World Autism Awareness Day
时间：2018-12-29 作者：英语课 分类：英语课程学习计划和讲义
April the 2nd is World Autism Awareness 1 Day (WAAD). Autism is a disorder 2 that affects the development of the brain. People who suffer from autism often have problems interacting 3 socially with others. They also repeat the same things again and again. WAAD started in 2007 when the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution to recognize the disorder. The Emir of Qatar pushed for this day to take place and won support from UN member states. WAAD is one of only three United Nations Days that focus on specific diseases. It aims to bring the world's attention to autism and the tens of millions of sufferers. On this day, countries hold events that celebrate the unique talents and skills of autistic people.
Autism affects as many as 1 in 150 children. No one knows the reason why, but boys are four times more likely to have autism than girls. Autism can affect any child in the world, regardless of where they live or their social background. It is the fastest growing serious developmental disability in the world and is a growing global health crisis 4. Autism affects more children around the world than AIDS, cancer and diabetes 5 combined. Parents usually notice the first signs of autism in children from the age of two. Although there is no cure for the condition yet, education can help the child become more independent. However much care autistic children receive, few grow up and look after themselves.
