If you take a look at the Commerce Department’s National Broadband Service map, you will see that many parts of rural America still don’t have a broadband Internet connection. It might look like sparsely populated areas, but in reality 28 percent of Americans don’t use the Internet, according to the NY Times. (33)A lot of times, as the article explains, it’s not for lack of want, but because these people simply don’t have access. Only 68 percent of Americans have access to broadband, according to a survey of 54 000 people completed by the Commerce Department. (34)Some people in Thomasville, Alabama, have had to resort to driving to their local library’s parking lot to get a wireless signal. The librarian took pity on them and now leaves the router on all night. If you need the password, it’s posted on the library door. The US government promised that 98 percent of Americans will get wireless Internet in the next five years. This map shows how important that goal really is. With no way to go to school remotely, find out if there is a disaster in the area immediately or even chat with a customer service representative, Americans without web access are at a disadvantage. Even though chances are most of these people just want to be able to have a Facebook account and watch YouTube videos, they still deserve the right to be connected to the rest of the world.
33. Why do so many Americans still have no broadband?
34. What do people in Thomasville do if they want to use broadband?
35. What’s the main idea of the passage?

推理判断题。短文中提到许多美国人不使用互联网,不是因为他们不想,而是因为没有使用宽带的途径。
