Question

17．I came to study in the United States a year ago．Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court．
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，I'd 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 115eachtime．Thefinalexaminationreportconsistedoftenlines，anditcostme215．My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met．But after that he avoided seeing me at all．He 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 to dismiss him．And he made me pay him $770．
Now I had to act as my own lawyer．Due to my inexperience，I told the insurance company the date I was leaving America．Knowing that，they played for time…and I left without getting a cent．

分析 本文大意：我一年前去美国学习，直到我在一场车祸中受伤我才真正了解了美国社会，因为我不得不去看医生和去法院．事故后我的室友给我找了一个医生，但但第二天，他让我付费给200美元给他为我做的事情．我的医生每次让我等50分钟，一次看两三个病人，经常停下手中的病人去看另一个，而他每次收我115美元；我的律师他非常清楚另一方对事故负有责任，但他几乎什么也不做，他简单地等着收钱，
