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 day 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 was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all.

BLiving and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that munication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along with any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to municate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesntt solve anything.munication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you cant just e home from school, go up to your room and ignore (不理睬) everyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.If you looked up the word “munication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance （表达）of information, correspondence （通信）, means of munication: a letter or a message”. To maintain (保持) a good relationship, you must keep munication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if its just by writing a note.When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that youll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didnt feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not when Sophie explained why she was late, they werent as mad and let the incident go. munication is the key factor here. If Sophies parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.munication isnt a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophies, telling the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to munication.6. In the writers view, dealing with parents is _ than with children.A. more difficult B. easierC. more uninteresting D. more interesting
