AThe cost of medical care in the United States is very high. The time and money that doctors spend on their medical education is properly one reason for the problem.A visit to a doctor’s office costs from fifteen to fifty dollars. It is almost impossible for people to pay for medical care they need. Many people in the United States think that doctors are overpaid. Most doctors, however, disagree. They say that they were required to study medicine for a long time and tuition(学费) for many years of medical education costs a lot of money. Doctors say that it is necessary for most medical students to borrow money from a bank to pay their tuition. Because this money must be paid to the bank, young doctors need to receive a lot of money for their work.

They are probably setting the bar as high as possible, so that you will aim high. That's right, but you need some confidence that they'll be there to catch you — and love you just the same — if you try and fail to achieve all their goals. Because what they're doing now could lead to some unexpected results and not good ones.Giving you a lecture for achieving an A is a big mistake. Your parents might think they're giving you the motivation for succeeding, but all this pressure is making you feel like you can never be good enough.

Tell them that you love them so much, and you worry they won't love you if you don't achieve what they want, and how you suspect you may not be up to the challenge.

If the talk doesn't go the way you hope, you might want to schedule a meeting between you, your parents and a counselor (顾问) at school. The counselor can certainly help your parents understand how this kind of unhealthy pressure can lead to negative results, and give them advice about how to better encourage you to be all that you can be, at school and outside of it.5．Who does the author intend to write to?A.
