10、lorado. The hospital wanted payment for surgery totaling $41,188. Ryan had never set foot in that hospital. Obviously there was some mistake. “I thought it was a joke，”says Ryan. But when he called the billing agency，nobody laughed. Someone，whos also named Joe Ryan，using Ryans Social Security number

11、，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 doesnt know if his medical record has been cleared of wrong information. Joe Ryan was the victim of a little-k

12、nown 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 isnt the half of it. When someone steals your name to receive health care，

13、his medical history becomes part of your record-and setting the record straight can be extremely difficult. Thats 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

14、， “so I went to the hospital，and they had a three-inch-thick record for me，but they wouldnt let me see it. I showed them my ID， and they said thats not Joe Ryans signature. Well，of course not!They had this other guys signature. ” Ryan had fallen into a victims Catch-22：If your record doesnt appear t

15、o be yours，you may not have the right to read it，much less change it. Ryans next step was a visit to the police department.

19、einer，co-founder of Castle Rock Entertainment，was greadtly surprised when he saw his studios film Proof of Life. “Wow， why is Meg Ryan smoking up a storm?”Reiner says. “It didnt add to the plot. ”Fourteen months later，Castle Rock has a policy of discouraging tobacco use. Any actor，director or screen

20、writer who wants to depict it must first meet with Reiner. “They have to make a really good case. ”he says. “Movies are basically advertising cigarettes to kids. ”Movie characters light up more often than people do in real life，argues Stanton Glantz，a professor of medicine who has launched a“Smoke-F

21、ree Movies”newspaper ad campaign. His study found that on average the 20 top-grossing films featured 50%more instances of smoking an hour in 2000 than in 1960. And an American Lung Association survey discovered that 61%of the tobacco use in films last year occurred in movies rated G，PG and PG-13. Wi

22、th teen smoking up dramatically in the past decade，a movement is building to hold Hollywood accountable. So Glantz says，“The entertainment industry is in denial. ” But its getting an education. Susan Moses，deputy director of Harvards Center for Health Communication，and Lindsay Doran ，former head of

23、United Artists，have been going from one studio to another. They hit the bosses with hard facts：a million teens a year become daily smokers，and a third of those will eventually die from tobacco-related illness. When Doran and Moses met with executives from Imagine Pictures，says Doran，“They said，Smoki

24、ng is not in any of our scripts. But then they called the next day and said， We looked，and its everywhere. ”Karen Kehela，co-chairman of Imagine，recalls trying to take smoking out of one script after the meeting，“but the actor insisted on smoking,”she says. In fact，many movie stars cant leave their c

25、igarettes in the dressing room. “Actors who smoke look for any reason to integrate it into their characters，”Reiner says. “You have directors who dont care about the social implications or are yielding to the actors. ” 26 Reiner was astonished at the film Proof of Life made in his studio because_.（A

26、）one of the characters smoked a lot（B） smoking added something to the plot（C） smoking in the film resulted in a storm（D）tobacco use was prohibited from films27 Glantz found that the number of smoking scenes in hit movies were_higher than 40 years ago.（A）20%（B） 50%（C） 61%（D）80%28 The word“it”in Line

29、me up with an excuse. I thought it was strange-but he told me that he had not gotten over the death of his wife and he was still grieving for her. I thought that he needed a friend and decided that I could be that friend. We sent cards, exchanged gifts，talked on the phone and I was sure that we woul

30、d meet someday. I had spoken with his children so I was sure that what he told me was true. I could not wait for the day when we would meet. I was so looking forward to being able to reach out and touch him. To hug him，to hold him and feel his big strong arms around me. After almost two years of tim

Finally，contacted the website WhoisHe. com and asked if they could check out the man who had taken up so much of my heart，my energy and my

32、life. I had enough information about him and felt that if I could confirm what he had been telling me-I could feel okay about these delays. I had hopes that I didnt want to dash if he was telling the truth. I believed I could wait a little while longer. Well, I am glad that I decided to have him che

He was a man cheating on his wife，with me-and I found out later，with countless others on the“net”. He did not care that he had hurt me in a very deep and pathetic wa

34、y. He talked of spending his life together with me. He told my son that he wanted to make me happy. Basically，he just lied. He was such a good liar I did not see it coming. It was as if he had been able to worm his way into my heart-and he didnt care about the effect he had on my hopes and dreams. E

35、ach of us should look at the signs that are so clear if we are willing to see them. Do not let someone keep making excuse after excuse. If something feels wrong-likely it is.
