30、isrupted temporarily or permanently. Many people with disabling conditions are especially vulnerable to victimization because of their real or perceived inability to fight or flee, or to notify others and testify about the victimization. Frequently, because a person with a disability may be more phy

31、sically frail, the victimization may exacerbate existing health or mental health problems. For those who hope that their disability may “protect“ them from criminal victimization, it is shocking to learn that many criminals do not act upon a perceived “desirability“ of the intended victim. Indeed, m

32、any perpetrators may be unaware that their victims have a disability. Here, the victim is truly random, another one of us in the wrong place at the wrong time. Another reality is that many offenders are motivated by a desire to obtain control over the victim and measure their potential prey for vuln

33、erabilities. Many people with disabilities, because they are perceived as unable to physically defend themselves, or identify the attacker, or call for help, are perfect targets for such offenders. People with disabilities are also vulnerable to abuse by the very professionals and other caregivers w

34、ho provide them with services. Just as many pedophiles gravitate to youth-serving occupations, so do many other predators seek work as caregivers to people with disabilities. People who are victimized are, therefore, vulnerable to exacerbated suffering. Most victims will experience a sense of shock,

35、 disbelief, or denial that the crime occurred, often followed by cataclysmic emotions: fear, anger, confusion, guilt, humiliation and grief, among others. But people with disabilities may have intensified reactions because they may already feel stigmatized and often have low self-esteem due to socie

36、tal attitudes. The sense of self-blame, confusion, vulnerability, and loss of trust may be exaggerated, as may be an ambivalence or negativity related to their perception of their bodies. Denial and avoidance of the need to cope with the aftermath may complicate the identification of crime victims w

37、ith a disability. Some victims, particularly elderly and those with developmental disabilities, will need services designed to enhance a feeling of safety and security regarding future victimization. 94 People with disabilities, even before they are victimized, have such problems as_. （ A） a lack of

38、 basic social services （ B） impoverishment （ C） institutionalization （ D） barriers to equal rights 95 The reasons why people with disabilities tend to be more vulnerable to victimization are all of the following EXCEPT that_. （ A） they are usually more physically frail in face of crimes （ B） they are unable to fight with the criminals or flee from them
