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．

E．Tliat is to say，the people you keep company with determine your character development．
F．Job searching under pressure often results in nervous interviewing and decision-making from relatively few options．

The worse time to look for a job is when you feel desperate and must have a new one immediately．（67）FIf you are not in need of an immediate career change，here arc ways you can improve your long-term career prospects today；
Identify at least two different roles．You do not have to be qualified for these positions today，nor do they have to exist in your company．However，these roles should be related to your current skill set．They are career options that look interesting．（68）DPay close attention to what appeals to you，and write it down．This will give insight into your motivations and targets．
Subscribe to a career specific magazine．Knowledge is power in the workplace．All businesses must stay relevant to their customers in order to win the competitions and increase revenue （收益）．Reading about industry trends，advancements and success stories keeps you in touch with market conditions．This information allows you to see which companies and professionals are leading the pack．You can follow their examples in your own workplace．（69）A

As in all things in life，getting in front of a different task early is always less stressful than reacting to a career surprise．Changing jobs is to be expected．No matter how secure you feel today，the time will come when either you or your employer decide it is time to change．
