24、osing their phone than men. Fortunately, theres 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 cant conduct business or go about your routine when the fear becomes so severe. Do you go to unus

25、ual lengths to make sure you have your phone? Thats 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

26、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-foun

27、der 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 phones location.

35、to the tissues that need it.Damage to the body can begin very quickly from large amounts of carbon monoxide. How quickly this happens depends on the length of time a person is breathing the gas and the amount of the gas he or she breathes in. Carbon monoxide poisoning has warning signs. But people h

36、ave to be awake to recognize them. Small amounts of the gas will cause a persons head to hurt. He or she may begin to feel tired. The person may feel sick.

43、wo dog walkers passed by and we heard one of them say, “Never seen that dog around here before.”We looked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling(蹒跚) painfully up the hill.

44、e collar, but no one answered.The dog was painfully thin. It didnt have many teeth left and, well, it just seemed done.Julie ran home to get some of our dogs food while I tried to encourage the dog to come along with me.

45、n the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food.Eventually we got her home. We gave her a blanket, more food, kept her warm and wondered what to do next.After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch of flowers for us.

46、t Tara had been her fathers dog. She was very old and should probably be put to sleep, but the lady just couldnt bring herself to do it. So, Tara was safely returned home.Here is the truth of the story:Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me to

47、 come back, but I wasnt hearing anything that made that sound likely. I was about to turn and go when an old, worn out dog walked between us and collapsed.

52、f the following is the best title for the passage? A. A Helpful Couple.B. An Angel Dog.C. Saving the Dog.D. A Famous Song.DDo you know what Fear and Faith have in common? Fear believes in a negative future. Faith believes in a positive future. Both believe in something that has not yet happened. So

53、I ask you, if neither the positive nor negative future has happened yet then why not choose to believe in the positive future?I believe during these challenging times we have a choice between two roads: the positive road and the negative road. And our bus cant be on two roads at the same time. So we

54、 have to make a choice and this choice determines our belief about the future and the attitude and actions we bring to the present.Im not saying we shouldnt have any fear.
