Chen Lin is a doctor who is from Hengyang，After his graduation from Peking University，he works in an office for a large organization． And this job can sometimes be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer．
Chen Lin works for MSF，an organization also known as Doctors Without Borders（无国界医生）．MSF sends trained doctors all over the world to help people after a war or disaster（灾难）． Chen Lin has traveled to many places to organize programs that help people in need．
At present，there are over 27，000 trained medical staff taking part in MSF projects and tasks．The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999．All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF．They need to be prepared to go almost anywhere in the world and，of course，they should expect difficult conditions．Doctors with experience in tropical （热带的）diseases are especially useful because most of MSF's work is in Africa．When MSF accepts a doctor for a task ，he has to go for at least six months．When doctors have completed a few tasks，they might be sent on an emergency task following a disaster， such as an earthquake．
But why would a doctor leave a comfortable life and a good salary to join MSF？ According to Chen Lin，the experience you have is a great help in your career．Besides，just like the explorers of the past，you need to keep an open mind and learn to get along well with the people you meet． Most importantly，at the end of each task， you have made a real difference to people's lives．

On Feb 12， Dalian（not his real name）was taking a train to Changsha， Hunan， for a business trip． While on the train，he went into a carriage（车厢）to have lunch and chose to remain in the carriage．He didn't know that the carriage was only for people heading to Wuhan．
Several hours later， when the train arrived in Wuhan， Dalian was asked to get off， as he was in the special carriage． Although he was surprised， he didn't want to cause trouble and got off the carriage with just a single bag．
Because of the epidemic， Wuhan had been locked down． So Dalian couldn't find a hotel to stay in． Feeling at a loss， he saw a notice online looking for volunteers to work in hospitals． Dalian decided to give it a try．
He soon became a volunteer in Wuhan No.1 Hospital． He was responsible for（对……负责）taking out rubbish，sweeping the floor，disinfecting（消毒）the hospital，dealing with used protective suits（防护服）and bringing meals to patients．
The young man， reportedly from northeast China， had to work 12 hours every day， changing his protective suit three times a day． While working， he couldn't drink anything or go to the bathroom． He also had to have close contact with infected patients， which is risky（冒风险的）．
Dalian was afraid of getting infected at first． "When I entered the wards（病房）， I was kind of frozen（僵硬的）and felt like I couldn't move，" he said． But after he saw more patients get better， his fear gradually went away．
Dalian's story has gone viral（走红的）online． People were surprised by his experience， and described him as having "a heart of gold"．

D． Everyone can fight the virus（病毒）in their own way．
I caught a cold． It was really a bad cold． Actually， the doctor later told me that I had the flu （流感）．
My head was pounding． My throat was hurting． My body was aching．My voice became hoarse and I could hardly speak．I never experienced anything like this before．Worst of all， my sore throat was so serious that I couldn't even swallow（吞咽）!
I knew I should drink more fluids﹣water， soup or juice ﹣ and maybe take some medicine． But I couldn't． Each time I tried to swallow， it hurt so much． So my dad took me to the hospital．
A doctor came in．He checked my throat．He then checked my lungs．After his examination，he said，"Nothing to worry about． You have the flu．"
"Why is it so serious？" I asked．"Can you give me some medicine so that I don't suffer as much？"
"No，" the doctor said．"No medicine can cure （治愈） your flu． Don't be sad． Your body is an amazing thing． It will cure itself without any help．""What？ My body will fix things on its own？"I cried in disbelief．
Yes， your body's immune system （免疫系统） will fight the virus （病毒） for you． No doctor or medicine will cure you．" repeated the doctor．
My tears rushed out．I had not realized this in the past．Everything had always seemed so natural．I've had my meals every day for thirteen years． I drink water like taking a breath﹣without thinking about it at all．
Now， I understand that even a simple thing like swallowing is like a miracle （奇迹）． The parts of my body do their jobs amazingly well一and yet quietly， without me even noticing．
I don't remember how many days it took me to be well again， but I do remember what my father told me． He said that we should all appreciate our bodies and the miracle of how they are built．

When people discover that I work as a film and TV extra （临时演员），they always ask me the same questions： Emily， is it easy to get work？ Isn't it boring？ Do you get to meet famous actors？ Does it pay well？ My answers are pretty standard as well： Yes， sometimes， once in a while， and …kind of．The life of an extra is both more interesting and more boring than you might imagine．
Extras， who play the people in crowds，on streets，or in the background of indoors scenes，can come from all walks of life． Unlike many extras，I'm a trained actor．I do get real speaking roles，but work can be hard to come by if you're not a popular star． I' m registered（注册） with an agency that deals only with extras，so I get calls all the time．The agency explains who I'll be﹣someone in a crowd，a member of a jury， a clerk ﹣ and tells me where to go． Call time is usually bright and early， so I try to get to bed at a reasonable hour．
Sometimes being an extra is a "hurry up and wait" job． In my first extra role， I was one of a group office workers who come out of a building just as a car explodes（爆炸） in the street．We waited for hours for the scene to be shot， and then went in and out of the building about fifty times， trying to act terrified by an explosion which was not real． Then we had lunch， changed clothes， and spent the afternoons as customers in a department store．
It may sound like I don't enjoy the work， but I do． Being part of the background in a convincing（令人信服的）way is challenging，and being on a film or TV set is always fascinating．A lot of famous actors don't even notice the extras，but the ones who do make the job a lot of fun for everyone．As for the money，it's nothing compared to what the big actors make，but it pretty much pays the bills．And，as a bonus，I've beaten my high scores on all my phone games，thanks to all the time I spend sitting around，waiting for something to happen．
（1）Emily gives standard answers because ．
A． she is proud of her job
B． she wants to hide her feelings
C． she thinks it's unnecessary to explain
D． they are the exact answers to the questions
（2）What does Emily think of her job？
A． Busy．
B． Enjoyable．
C． Fashionable．
D． Easy．
（3）Another way to say as a bonus would be ．
A． above expectation
B． as a result
C． in general
D． after all
（4）According to the passage， ．
A． the famous actors look down upon the extras
B． being an extra is always a "hurry up and wait" job
C． Emily tells the truth about being a film and TV extra
D． those who want to be film or TV extras must be trained
（5）We can infer that Emily， ．
A． often pays the bills for others
B． sometimes has to get up very early
C． has beaten all the phone game players
D． was in face of danger in her first extra role

The nurse， who had just arrived to work，heard about the situation and made a decision．She took off her gold ring， took it to the eashier's desk（收银台） and said she would use it to pay for the patient's bill．Although the ring was the only piece of valuable gift her parents gave her， the nurse gave it away to save the patient． Thanks to her help， the patient was at once transferred to another hospital and his life was saved． Though the patient was a stranger， the nurse gave so much to him．
The nurse's action caught the attention of the doctor on duty that day． The doctor saw everything in the hospital and he was deeply moved by the nurse． He later fell in love with the nurse and they finally got married． The patient attended their wedding （婚礼） as well and returned the ring．
Things like this happen every day in our life． Sometimes， giving can bring you something that you have never expected before． As Mother Teresa once said，"In our life， it is not how much you do，but how much love you put into what you do．"
