I came to study in the USA a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I injured (伤害) in an accident, because after the accident I had to see a doctorand 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 (负责) 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.

When the bell rings, every student takes out an IPad. The light from the screens makes their young faces pretty and lively.

That’s what happens every day at my school in the US. We use IPad in class.

I felt surprised and excited when I got an IPad the first day I arrived at the school. But it was not free. I paid about $99 to rent it for three years.

Every IPad at my school has a special learning system called Focus. Teachers put their teaching materials like textbooks and PPTs on it. When we have classes, we enter the system and download the materials with our IPads.

It makes the classes interesting and efficient. For example, several weeks ago, we learned about former South African president Nelson Mandela. Our teacher prepared a video in which Mandela made an encouraging speech. We could not only watch the video, but also check the transcript (文字稿)at the same time. Because of the video, I know more about the great man.

We also do our homework with IPads. If the homework is made up of multiple choices(选择题),we can know our grades right away after we submit(提交)our homework. If it’s articles, teachers grade them online, without needing to look through so many papers.

However, there are still some bad points about learning with IPads. Some of my classmates play games or log on social networking websites (社交网站)in class.

I believe the key to use Ipads well is to have good self-control (自制力), isn’t it?

1.The writer paid about _____ dollars to rent an Ipad every year.

A.99 B. 612 C. 33

2. How is an IPad used in class?

A. We enter the system-Focus and download the materials with it.

B. We only turn it on.

C. We record what the teacher said in class with it.

3.The underlined word “efficient” means “______ in Chinese.

A. 有影响的 B.高效的 C. 有活力的

4.We can’t ______ with IPads

A. do our homework

B. play games

C. grade our essays

5.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. How to use an IPad

B. Have classes with an IPad

C. How to have good self-control
