Timothy Lloyd, whose parents were both doctors, had always wanted to work in medicine. At last he did quite well in the examination, well enough to get into a school of nursing. On his first school day, Timothy was so excited that he could hardly eat any breakfast, and left home so early that he was at the school long before it opened.
The first thing he had to do was to have a meeting with new head of the school, whose name was Thompson, and other new students. The head, a woman who had herself been in the nursing profession(职业)for many years, congratulated the new students on entering the nursing profession, shook hands with each of them and hoped them to work hard during their time at the school. She warned them that their work would not be easy, begged them always to remain sincerely loyal(真诚地忠于职守) to their chosen profession and then wished them good luck.
When that was all over, the new students went off to their first lesson. The teacher whose class they joined always gave his new students a test on the first day, to judge how much they already knew, to see how clever they were, and so on.
“Does anyone know,”he asked,“why a doctor wears a mask(口罩) while he or she is doing an operation?”
“Oh, yes,”Timothy answered quickly.“Because then, if the operation isn't successful, the patient won't know whose fault (过错) it was!

If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication 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 communicate, you drift apart.When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and take no notice to anyone. 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 “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance （表达）of information, correspondence （通信）, means of communication: a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s 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 you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse.
Here 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 didn’t 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, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, telling the other person how you feel-------listening is the key to communication.
