D
【答案解析】[解析] 22-25 There are about 1 million blind people in the United States. The largest and most influential organization of blind people in this country is the National Federation of the Blind. The officials say that the nation doesn't have any colleges or universities that only serve blind students. They say the reason for this is that blind people must learn to live among people who can see. American colleges and universities do accept blind and visually impaired students. They provide services to help these students succeed. For example, colleges find people who write down what the professors say in class and they provide technology that can help blind students with their work. However, experts say that colleges can best help blind students by making it clear that the students should learn to help themselves. One blind American student named T recently made news because he graduated from medical school from the University of Wisconsin. He said technology was one of the reasons why he succeeded. He used a computer that read into his earphone what he was typing. He also used a small printer that permitted him to write notes about his patients in the hospital. He did his undergraduate work at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. National Federation of the Blind officials say that blind students from other nations do come to the United States to attend college. Some can even get financial aid. The Federation awards about 30 scholarships each year that have no citizenship requirement.
