I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in an accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.
After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.
But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to treat another. Yet he charged me $ 155 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.
My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other part was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $ 770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time…..And I left without getting a cent.
My experience taught me two things about America: Firstly, in America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality. Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America we should see both its good and bad sides.
49. The author’s roommate offered to help him because _____
A. He felt sorry for the first time.
B. He thought it was a chance to make some money.
C. He knew the doctor was a very good one.
D. He wanted the author to have a good lawyer.
50. A good doctor is essential for the author to_____.
A. be properly treated
B. talk with the person responsible for the accident
C. recover before he leaves America
D. eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury
51. The underlined word “charge” in the second passage means”____”.
A. be responsible
B. accuse
C. ask as a price
D. claim
52. What conclusion can you draw from the story?
A. Going to court is something very common in America.
B. One must be very careful while driving a car.
C. There are more bad sides in America than good sides.
D. Money is more important than other things in America.
C
For a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there was nothing special to do about it. Now we know that getting along with ourselves and with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything our own way or demanding the best share of everything, including the attention of our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad ones in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be.
You don’t have to be spineless (懦弱) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked and respected if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights. But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your own group, to older people, to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.
You cannot expect to be perfect, and so you must learn not to be too unhappy when you make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed unless he refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged when they recognize in themselves qualities that they do not like----selfishness, laziness and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.
At the same time, it is important to remember that, while you are probably no worse than others, chances are that you are not much better, either. The surest way to be happy is to think yourself above other people.
When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right. Perhaps you don’t like a teacher or a classmate .Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing something to make that person dislike you. In time, things may turn out all right if you just keep trying to be pleasant and polite. If things do not turn out all right, then you will simply have to get along the best you can with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you can’t change.
53. One of the two ways the author suggested for us to get along well with others is ____.
A. to draw the attention of our friends
B. to demand the best share of everything
C. to look for treasure in order to be successful
D. to pay more attention to other people’s strong points
54. The passage shows that there is no perfect person but someone should be blamed if he ____.
A. makes a big mistake
B. is selfish and lazy
C. does not draw a lesson from his own fault
D. is very unhappy about his unpleasant quality
55. The passage implies that in order to be a happy person, one should consider oneself ____.
A. no better than others
B. not the same as others
C. as having something better than others
D. as having better chances than others
56. The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to _____.
A. train y
