     My wife passed away a few years ago, and I went through the worst time in my life. I even wanted to

kill myself. Just for kids, I had to continue to live and work as small-town doctor at my medical clinic in

Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. Then they asked me to have a family trip.

      On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade

Center. Seeing it falling down, I said to my kids:"I'm going to Afghanistan". And a few weeks later,

international Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care.

     In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs, we were eventually serving

27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule. Tired and nervous, I gradually had a sense of achievement,

a sense of purpose, and my depression went away. In the years to follow, I went to Indonesia after the

tsunami, Pakistan after the earthquakes, Sudan after the civil warm and Iraq after more and more bombs.

Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed, wounded and many more had to

flee. We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees, and it was supposed to hold 13,000

originally. Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water

and food were also serious problems."Adventures or not?" I often asked myself.

     When my wife passed away, I thought my life was done. But in reality, it was just getting started. At the

end of her life, she went unconscious. I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would

visit and the exciting adventures we would have.

      I think about the moment many times during my "adventures". I didn't know how predictive those words

would be. But I know that she is still with me.

1. Where has the doctor been in the past few years?

2. How would the doctor describe his life after he had worked in Afghanistan?

A. Tired and troublesome.

D. Frightening and depressing.

3. The underlined word "refugees" means people ______.

A. who are robbed, killed, or wounded

B. who suffer from flu in movable clinics

C. who like to take adventures

D. who have lost homes because of disasters.

4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

     Kelly Reeves was getting ready for a trip when her phone slipped into a sink full of water. Panic

moment! She quickly picked up the wet phone and tried to turn it on, but nothing worked. Her first

reaction? She got dressed, drove to the nearest store, and bought a new model at full price.    

     A new study finds that fear of losing your phone is a common illness. About 66 percent of those

surveyed suffer from nomophobia or "no mobile phone phobia". Interestingly, more women worry

about losing their phone than men.    

     Fortunately, there's a solution.    

     The first step is to figure out if you have nomophobia. Checking your phone too often is one

thing,but the true sign of a problem is that you can't conduct business or go about your routine when

the fear becomes so severe.    

     Do you go to unusual lengths to make sure you have your phone? That's another sign of a

problem.If you find you check your phone plenty of times per hour, or a total of an hour per day,

there may be a problem.    

     Some of the treatments are similar to those for treating anxiety attacks: Leaving the phone behind

and not checking e-mail or text messages, and then learning to tolerate the after anxiety. Even if this

leads to a high level of worry and stress, the solution is to push through the fear and learn to deal

with not having your phone.    

     Of course, there are also technological alternatives. Luis Levy, a co-founder at Novy PR, says

he uses an application called Cerberus that can automatically track the location of his phone. To

find it, he can just go to a Web site and see the phone's location.    

     He also insures his phone through a service called Asurion. The company's description of its

product reads like a prescription for anxiety: "60 million phones are lost, stolen or damaged each

year. You'll have complete peace of mind knowing that your phone is protected and you can

quickly reconnect with family, friends and work, as soon as the very next day!"
