,he’d been unemployed，and with winter raging on the chill had finally hit home.Most of his friends had already left the Midwestern town,but he stayed on.After all,he was born here.

It was getting dark and light snow was coming down.He almost didn’t see the old lady,but in the dim light of day,he could see she needed help.He pulled up in front of her car and got out.

Even with a smile on his face,she was worried.Was he going to hurt her？He didn’t look safe;he looked poor and hungry.Joe knew how she felt and said to her,“I’m here to help you,ma’am.Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm.”She had a flat tire and Joe set about replacing it immediately.All this put the woman at ease.She then rolled down her window and began to talk to him，telling him that she was from St.Louis and was only passing through.Then the thankful woman asked Joe how much she owed him.But Joe told her that he had been given a hand in the past and if she wished to pay him back,she could give the money to someone who needed her help next time.

A few miles down the road the lady went into a small café.A waitress brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair.The waitress was nearly eight months pregnant,but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude.The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger.When the waitress came back to give the lady her change from a hundred dollar bill,she found a message on a napkin：“Take this.Someone once helped me out the way I’m helping you now.If you really want to pay me back，here’s what you can do. Don’t let the chain of love end with you.”

That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed，the waitress was thinking about what the lady had written.How could the lady have known that she and her husband needed the money？With the baby due next month,it was going to be hard.Knowing how worried her husband was,she whispered soft and low to him，“Everything’s gonna be alright，I love you，Joe.”

But when he called the billing agency，nobody laughed. Someone，who's also named Joe Ryan，using Ryan's Social Security number，had indeed been admitted for surgery. He figured clearing this up would take a just few phone calls.

Two years later，Ryan continues to suffer from the damage to his credit rating and still doesn't know if his medical record has been cleared of wrong information.

Joe Ryan was the victim of a little-known but frightening type of consumer cheating that is on the rise：medical identity theft，which involves using your name to get drugs，expensive medical treatment and even cheating insurance payments.

As Ryan discovered，money isn't the half of it. When someone steals your name to receive health care，his medical history becomes part of your record-and setting the record straight can be extremely difficult. That's because，in part，the information is handed out among dozens of caregivers，from doctors to medicine stores to insurance companies and labs.

“I wanted to help straighten this out，”says Ryan，“so I went to the hospital，and they had a three-inch-thick record for me，but they wouldn't let me see it. I showed them my ID，and they said that's not Joe Ryan's signature. Well，of course not!They had this other guy's signature. ”

Ryan had fallen into a victim's Catch-22：If your record doesn't appear to be yours，you may not have the right to read it，much less change it.

Ryan's next step was a visit to the police department. But the police said that there was not much they could do，that the local law enforcement has little experience with medical ID theft，and cases like this can end up being considered a civil matter.

The billing agency sent Joe Ryan a notice to______.

A．play a joke on him for medical treatment

B．inform. him of the payment for his surgery

C．clear up the wrong information in his medical record

D．correct the mistakes about payment for his surgery

Hi, Joe,

How are you？ I'm sitting on the balcony of my hotel. I am looking at Hyde Park in London and I am thinking about my life here. I am having a wonderful time. I like my job-it is very interesting, and my colleagues are great. I love London it's busy, noisy, crowded and exciting. The cinemas, theatres, pubs and restaurants are really nice, but they're too expensive! I think the people in London are very friendly (surprise!) and I've got some new friends.

What the weather like in Shanghai？ Is it raining？ Here it's lovely! It isn't foggy! The sun is shining and the birds are singing. It's very warm.

And it is my birthday today.

But I am missing you all in Shanghai. COME AND VISIT!

Love,

Xiaoyan
