After the accident , my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was amazed. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my accident, 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 $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. 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 refuse his help. And he made me pay him $770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience(缺少经验), I told the insurance(保险) company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time and I left without getting a cent.

National People's Congress (NPC, 全国人民代表大会) passed China's 11th Five-Year Plan. The plan
promises higher incomes (收入), better education and less pollution by 2010. If the promises all come
true, Chinese people's lives will change a lot.
Let's take Cai Wenkang as an example.
Roads and water
The 13-year-old boy is a junior one student in Hunan. His parents are both farmers.
According to the plan, Cai's family will benefit a lot. For example, the government will provide safe
drinking water to 100 million countryside people by 2010. Asphalt (沥青) roads will be built to connect
all towns and villages.
So, Cai will soon drink running water instead of well water. Trips on the bus will be more comfortable.
More money
Also, Cai's parents don't need to worry about money to pay to send their son to school in two years.
The plan promises that by the end of 2007, countryside students won't need to pay school fees until they
finish junior high.
People's lives will continue to improve. Each year, people will get 5 per cent more money, says the
plan.
That is to say, if an average Chinese family made about 10,000 yuan in 2005, in 2010 the family could
earn 12,800 yuan a year.
At that time, as the plan describes, China should see great progress in science. Chinese astronauts
would land on the moon. China might build its own airliners (客机).
So in 2010, if Cai goes to university by air, he probably would find the airplane is not from Boeing or
Air Bus. It's made in China.

It was a cold wet night. The taxi driver hadn't had any passenger all day. When he went by the bus station, he saw a young man from the country coming out, carrying two big bags. “Aha!” thought the taxi driver. “Here's the right person to make good this bad day.” He quickly stopped the taxi and opened the door.
Driver:Where do you want to go, sir?
Young Man:To the Park Hotel.
The taxi driver felt very sorry when he heard that. The Park Hotel was hardly two kilometers away. The young man would give him fifty cents(美分) at most. Only fifty cents! Then he had an idea of taking the young man by a longer way-going all around the city and then back to the Park Hotel. This he did, and after a long time the taxi arrived at the hotel at last.
