wearing a white coat and pretending he was a doctor. Yesterday he proudly claimed in court that despite
his complete lack of medical experience or qualifications, he had saved several people"s lives. He had even
been allowed to assist a surgeon during an emergency operation on a patient who was about to die on
something she had swallowed.
"I watched one of those TV dramas about a hospital and suddenly I felt like playing one of the roles
myself. So I put on a white jacket and a stethoscope (听诊器) and walked around one of the biggest hospital
in London. At first I just watched. Once you learn how doctors talk to patients, nurses and others doctors,
it"s easy to take people in," he said.
One of the patients he treated was Laura Kennan. She had been knocked down by a car and fainted.
When she came to in hospital, York was standing over her.
"He looked very professional. He told me his name was Doctor Simon. Then he gave me some sort of
injection," she said. And then he suddenly cleared off when a nurse asked who he was. She didn"t think there
was anything wrong. "I would never have realized he was a fake if a policewoman hadn"t showed me his
photograph a week later. When the policewoman told me who he really was, I could hardly believe my cars."
Judge Raymond Adams told York that he was "shocked and horrified" that he got away with his deceiving
for so long, and then sentenced him to eighteen months in a special prison for criminal with mental disorders.
"I can only hope that this will not lead to further problems. After all, you will have considerable opportunity
to study the behaviour of the psychiatrists (精神科医生) who will look after you while you are there. If you
try to persuade people that you yourself are a psychiatrist after you are set free, I shall make sure that you
are given a much longer sentence." Judge Adams warned York.

significant had happened in the way of promotions or salary increases. Martha felt that her supervisor, a
younger and less experienced person than she, did not like her. In fact, the supervisor often said unpleasant
things to her.
One day, while talking with her friend Maria, she mentioned how discouraged she was. Maria gave her

company. Martha called him the next day and set up an interview on her lunch hour.

wasted in this job.

appreciated! Good-bye!" She took up her things and stormed out of the office.
That night she called Maria and told her what had happened and then asked Maria, "What do you think?"
"Well," said Maria carefully, "are you sure about the other job?"
"Well, not exactly, but …"
Maria continued, "Will you be able to get a recommendation from Ms.Kenny if you need one?"
"A recommendation?…from Ms.Kenny?" hesitated Martha, in a worried tone.
"Martha, I hope you didn"t burn your bridges," Maria said. "I think I would have handled it differently."

What am I doing with my daughter at home? Rather than read aloud from books, we go go dinner and have a very a good time. This is usually when her Mom isn"t around, and this is when my little girl and I relate better. They"re alone together so much. We"re seldom alone.

And why on earth did she pick Laura and me for parents? When my daughter and I are along she"ll hold my hand and say, "I just love you so much, Daddy!" She"s so used to my leaving that when I tell her she and I are going to hang out all night, she gets this great look on her face and says, "We"ve got so much to do, Dad!"

Right in the middle of all this pleasantness,the voice goes, "Look at yourself! You"re washing dolls!" | ||||||||||||||
