三、阅读理解（共15小题，满分30分）
阅读下列材料，然后从每小题A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。
A
One year ago, I went to America for further study. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured (伤害) in an accident, because after the accident I had to see a doctor and to court (法院).
After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $ 200 for what he had done. I was very surprised. 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 (律师). 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 see another, yet he charged me $ 115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $ 215. My lawyer knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided not to ask for him again. And he made me pay him $ 770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Because of my inexperience, I told the insurance company (保险公司)the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time, and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship or honor. Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.
26. The writer’s purpose of going to America is _________. A. to get educated more B. to ask for suggestions B. to visit his friends D. to study law
27. The writer’s roommate offered to help him because __________.
A. he thought it was a chance to make some money B. he felt sorry for the writer
C. he knew the doctor was a very good one D. he wanted the writer to have a good lawyer
28. A good doctor is necessary for the writer to __________. A. be properly treated
B. talk with the person responsible for the accident C. become healthy before he leaves America
D. finally get the responsible party to pay for his injury 29. The word “charge” in this passage means “__________”. A. be responsible
B. be careful
C. ask as a price
D. get an answer
30. What can you get from the story?
A. Going to court is something very common in America. B. Money is more important than other things in the USA. C. There are more bad sides in America than good sides. D. One must be very careful while driving a car.

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills（读写能力）, With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudg-mental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence(自信心), according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard-reading as a headache.” said Lisa Myton, manager of the children’s department.
Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April. According to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager. 31. The passage mainly talks about_____
A. Service in a public library. B. Advantages of raising dogs.
C. Children’s reading difficulties. D.A special reading program. 32. Why are the dogs used to listen to children reading?
A. Because dogs are young children’s best friends. B. Because children can play with dogs while reading.
C. Because dogs can provide encouragement for shy children. D. Because children and dogs understand each other.
33. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?
A. The library uses dogs to attract children B. The library accepts the idea put forward by ITA
C. The library has opened a children’s department D. The library has decided to train some dogs 34. A “pawgraphed” book might be _________.
A. a book used in Saturday classes B. a book written by the children C. a prize for the children D.a gift from parents 35. Where can you most probably find the passage?
A. in a guidebook B. in a storybook C. in a newspaper D. in a science fiction
C
Mount Rainier National Park is in the northwestern state of Washington. It is almost 100 kilometers from Seattle. Yet it can be seen from any place in the city. The beautiful, snow covered mountain seems to offer the city its protection.
The mountain’s offer of protection is false. Mount Rainier is not just a mountain. It is a sleeping volcano（火山）. Experts agree that Mount Rainier will become a very active one at sometime in the future. They say the real problem is that they don’t know when. Experts also agree that the great heat produced by an explosion of the volcano would melt the rivers of ice that are part of the mountain. This could happen in only a few minutes. The melting ice would produce flowing rivers of mud（泥） and rock. People who live in the southern part of Seattle and in the city of Tacoma, Washington would be in great danger.
Experts carefully study conditions at Mount Rainier. They hope to be able to warn of any dangerous change. But for now, the great mountain provides a safe and beautiful place to visit.
You do not have to climb the huge mountain to enjoy Mount Rainier National Park. More than 1,000,000 people visit the park every year. Many walk on the hundreds of kilometers of paths. The paths lead through flat meadows(草地) filled with wild flowers and up through forests of large old trees. Other visitors drive around the park to experience its natural beauty.
