　　A dog found shot in the head and face with a pellet(小弹丸) gun,

　　in a garbage bag and left to die is recovering from his injuries at an animal clinic in Texas. The bag containing the 3-year-old male animal was discovered tied to a fence in Conroe, Texas, earlier this month. When the locals opened the bag, the dog appeared, took a few steps and fell.

　　Augustyn rushed the dog to an emergency animal clinic, where he was treated for many pellets to the face, eyes, mouth, neck and shoulders. The dog was stabilized, but according to Dr Ron Hendrick, a vet at the Animal Emergency Clinic of Conroe, pellets remain in both eyes and it’s unclear whether the dog nicknamed Buck was left blind forever.

　　A Facebook page, Buck Needs Bucks for His Buckshot Injuries, was launched last week by Augustyn. It was created to help pay for the dog’s medical bills. The page has attracted nearly 7,000 “likes” and, according to its creator, already more than enough donations to pay for his treatment.

　　“The last 24 hours has been astonishing for me.” Augustyn wrote on the page. “I have gone from not knowing if I would have enough money to pay for Buck’s emergency bill to having an unbelievable amount of money to provide the best possible care for Buck’s recovery. I have though long and hard about this today and how I should handle this. The conclusion is that I will open a separate bank account for Buck and all donations will be used for Buck’s recovery and necessities.” With the help of Facebook, Buck’s story quickly sparked international interest. “Buck is now walking,” Augustyn says.

　　Police in Montgomery County say they are investigating the incident, and Augustyn says she has been in contact with law enforcement officials about donating a reward for information leading to the arrest of the person who tortured(折磨) the dog.

　　Sadly, cases like Buck’s are not uncommon, particularly in Texas.

　　41.When Augustyn found the dog, it was ______.

　　A. being shot by its owner

　　B. tied to a fence near an animal clinic

　　C. in a horrible physical state

　　D. hiding from its owner inside a bag

　　42. After being treated at the emergency animal clinic, the dog ________.

　　A. is still not in a stable condition

　　B. remains blind because of the shots

　　C. has no pellets remaining in his body

　　D. has completely recovered from his injuries

　　43. What was Augustyn’s purpose in launching the Facebook page?

　　A. To ask for donations for the dog

　　B. To ask a vet to help treat the dog

　　C. To call for people to love animals

　　D. To ask people to find the dog owner

　　44. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that _______.

　　A. Augustyn is worried about the emergency bill.

　　B. Augustyn will try to help more injured dogs

　　C. many people care about the injured dog’s recovery

　　D. Augustyn doesn’t know how to deal with the donations

　　What will the passage most probably talk about next?

　　A. How to stop people from torturing dogs.

　　B. Some people who like torturing animals

　　C. Why the dog’s owner abandoned him

　　D. Some other examples of badly torturing dogs
