Yet, I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the car 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, Id 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 want to see 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 was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He 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 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(保险) company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played with time,and I left without getting a cent.My experience taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality（道德）. Secondly, foreigners are still being treated unfairly. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.52. The authors roommate offered to help him because .A. he felt sorry for the authorB. he thought it was a chance to make some moneyC. he knew the doctor was a very good oneD. he wanted the author to have a good lawyer53. A good doctor is essential for the author to .A. to be properly treatedB. talk with the person responsible for the accidentC. recover before he leave AmericaD. eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury54. Both the doctor and the lawyer in the passage are very .A. friendly B. greedy C. professional D. busy55. 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 thingsin America.CThe market is a concept. If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbors and some to the local managers of the supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them.If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steel worker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market.When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas station and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market.The market may be something abstract（抽象的）. But for each person or business that is making and selling something, it is very concrete. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it wont be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It is telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesnt want you to do.56Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?ASelling and Buying.BEverything you do is producing for the market.CWhat is the market?DWhat the market can do for you.57All of the following acts are producing for the market except .Aworking in a bankBattending a night schoolCprinting a bookDgrowing beans for sale58You are buying from the market when you .Aborrow a book from your neighbor Bgo to the seaside for a holidayClook after your children Ddine at a restaurant59The word “concrete” in the last paragraph may most probably mean .AseriousBimportantCnecessaryDrealDI made a pledge (誓言) to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving, no ifs, ands or buts.The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical（圣经的）passage about husbands being thoughtful of their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.”“Oh, Tom, you noticed,” she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyns been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, thats how the whole vacation passed. I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love.There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.“Whats the matter?” I asked her.“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with distress , “do you know something I dont?”“What do you mean?”“Wellthat checkup I had several weeks agoour doctordid he tell you something about me？Tom, youve been so good to meam I dying?”It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.“No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “Youre not dying; Im just starting to live.”60.

During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because _.A. she looked lovely in her new clothesB. he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firmC. he was determined to be a good husbandD. she was seriously ill62.
