Juan and Marcel have been roommates for several years. Juan is a student, but Marcel has a great job that allows him to travel. When he is gone, he allows Juan to borrow his car. This is a story about what happened when Marcel was out of town for a meeting, and Juan had an accident with Marcel's car. <\/p>\n\n

impact maintain connect similarly equip <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Marcel was always so careful about *maintaining* his car, so learning about the accident was going to be upsetting. Juan thought it was best if he *equipped* himself with a clear plan to repair the damage to Marcel\u2019s car. Juan was also frustrated about the entire problem, and he knew his friend Marcel would have *similar* feelings. Juan hoped the accident and the damage to the car would not *impact* their friendship forever, but he knew there would be some immediate distance. There was no *connection* to the internet at the conference, so Juan would have to wait to talk to Marcel face to face when he got home. <\/p>\n\n

create alternative conference approximate cooperate <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

There were still two days before Marcel would return home from the *conference*, so Juan had time to prepare for the conversation. Juan also thought about how kind it was of Marcel to share his car while he was away. *Cooperation\/cooperation* between the two guys was important so that they could help each other get ahead. Juan wondered if he could get the car fixed before Marcel returned. He really wanted to do this to avoid the horrible situation that he had *created*. However, Juan didn\u2019t think he had enough money to pay for the repairs in the next day or two. Juan had no other *alternative*; his only option was to talk to Marcel about what happened. Juan was going to offer to pay for the damages to the car, so he figured out an *approximation* of the cost. <\/p>\n\n

items approach manual process significant <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The *process* of estimating the cost, planning a payment schedule and thinking about the conversation made Juan very upset. He wished he could turn back time and redo that afternoon drive without the accident. Juan really hoped that the friendship with Marcel would not be lost forever, but he also knew that this accident had *significance*. Juan prepared an *itemized* list of the things that would need to be fixed, and this helped him to guess the cost. Juan *approached* the car mechanic to ask for an estimate; he needed to know the time and cost of repair. Marcel loved his car, and he was going to be angry. One of the reasons for the damage to the car was because Juan was not used to the *manual* shifting of gears. <\/p>\n\n

integrate exclude initiate vision potential <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Juan thought it would be best to *initiate* the conversation when he went to pick up Marcel at the airport. Marcel would see the damage immediately. Juan was going to *integrate* the expense of the car repair into his monthly budget, so it would take about 6 months to pay it off. In order to pay for the repairs, Juan would have to *exclude* all entertainment or restaurant meals from his budget for the next 6 months. This issue between Juan and Marcel had the *potential* to end the friendship between the two. Juan was extra careful about making certain he had clear *vision* out of all the car windows while he was slowly driving to the airport to meet Marcel. <\/p>\n"],"submitAnswer":"Submit"}
