Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions:

The field of medicine forces a confrontation between scientific and everyday language. Outside the world of research laboratory and clinic, there exists the daily routine of medical practice, a situation where a doctor tries to understand the problems of a patient, and the patient attempts to understand the doctor’s diagnosis. The initial statement of the symptoms of any disease is of critical importance as it guides the doctor’s search for the clinical signs of the condition. Similarly, the doctor’s explanation of a problem, and recommendations for treatment, need to be clear and complete if the patient is to understand and follow the correct course of action. The need for careful listening and explanation by both parties should be obvious in a field as sensitive and serious as health. Patients worried about their health are often uncertain and confused in their accounts. Busy doctors will not have the time to take up every point the patient has referred to. Moreover, the tradition of medical interviewing hinders the development of a genuine communication.
