One morning in 2007,Parthasarathy—we usually called him Partha—came to meet me.He was disabled and was not an engineer but had majored in a computer course in college.I told Partha, "I'd like to employ people like you." In fact,it turned out to be the right decision to employ him.Partha had an amazing enthusiasm and his disability did not stop him from improving himself.I was not doing any charity by employing him because my company benefited more from Partha.I have realized that physically challenged people are more faithful than others but unfortunately we usually pay scant attention to them.
At that time our office was on the first floor and Partha had difficulty dealing with the stairs.Seeing him struggle,I decided to make the entire office disabled-friendly.Our ground floor is now intended for the disabled people,and we have special toilets for them.We have also built houses for them near the office so that they can avoid long travelling hours.
After meeting Partha,I decided to hire more disabled people.We waited six months to get another disabled person who then became our receptionist.
I don't regard employing disabled people as charity.I consider it my responsibility.The country has spent much money educating me and I feel it is time for me to do something as a reward.
It is great to work with them.Seeing them work,get married,settle in life and have children is a wonderful experience.
We have 550 employees now,and 20 percent of them are disabled.We go to Engineering Colleges looking for disabled people but only to find one or two in each college.Parents don't send them out.The biggest challenge for the physically disabled is the attitude of their parents,but we hire them even if they are not engineers.
(1)What kind of person was Partha? (No more than 10 words) Partha was disabled but didn't stop improving himself.Partha was disabled but didn't stop improving himself.
(2)What does the underlined word "scant" in the 1st paragraph mean? (No more than 2 words) Little. / Not enough.Little. / Not enough.

(5)Do you agree to the writer's plan to employ more disabled people?And why? (No more than 30 words) Yes.Because it is our duty to reward the country and the disabled need chances to make full use of their skills to improve themselves.Yes.Because it is our duty to reward the country and the disabled need chances to make full use of their skills to improve themselves.
