During the first week of his stay，he went out one day to do some shopping．He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone．He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers，including his passport．
He reported the case to the police and then sat there，lost and lonely in strange city，thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one．

3．Danger-junkie orangutans（猩猩） in Borneo climb dead trees and shake then until they begin to fall．They scream with excitement as they cling to the falling tree．Just before the tree hits the ground the orangutans leap to another tree or vine，narrowly escaping death．While no one cab ask orangutans if they enjoy it as a person playing an extreme sport，one animal behaviorist sees this monkey fun as a bit of harmless thrill-seeking．
A growing number of scientists agree that animals are conscious and capable of experiencing basic emotions（情感），such as happiness，sadness，boredom or depression．A few scientists even see the possibility for higher animal emotions like love，jealousy and spite．
Five years ago，behaviorist and animal-rights activist Dr．Jonathan Balcombe stood on a Virginia hotel balcony watching two crows intimately groom（清洁） each other in the comfort of an abandoned billboard．He felt that the birds liked what they were doing，even if engaged in a natural，beneficial act，such as picking parasites（寄生虫） off the other's feathers．That moment changed the way he would view animals forever and led to a book，"Pleasurable Kingdom：Animals and the Nature of Feeling Good"，which is filled with hundreds of examples of animals living it up thanks to developed senses of touch，taste，sight，sound and smell．
Balcombe recounts a favorite example of Kenyan hippos（河马） having high-end spa treatment in a fresh water spring．They splay their toes，open their mouths wide and wait for a school of cleaner fish to remove parasites and slough off dead skin，he recalls．Balcombe knows that the hippos and the fish both benefit from this arrangement．"My interpretation is that it is also enjoyable for them，"he says．

13．Some people act sick to get out of work．Others act sick to get work．For medical actors like Ted Bell，the stage is an examination room with a future doctor，nurse or others health care professional．
Mr．Bell is playing a 55-year-old patient with stomach pains that began three months ago．He is also playing a teacher．But in a way he really does teach．He helps students like Emily Tyrrell at the University of Maryland School of Nursing learn to work with patients．
In real life，Mr．Bell is a retired civil engineer．He now works as what is known as a"standardized （标准化的）patient"．He stays busy working at local medical schools．About 700standardized patients work in the area．Pay starts at 17dollars an hour．It can go as high as 35dollars an hour depending on the project．
Becoming a standardized patient does not require medical knowledge．The schools provide the training．Nor does it require acting experience．In fact，standardized patient Tom Wyatt is a professional actor--yet he does not even think of his work with the students as acting．
Standardized patients spend hours training for each of their"performances"．They have to remember the medical history of the person they are playing and be able to answer questions as if they were really sick．Tom Wyatt says remembering all the patients he has to play and their conditions can be difficult．
After each session （学期）the standardized patients talk to the students to discuss their performance，that is，the performance of the students．
Kurt Haspert is studying to become a nurse practitioner （护理师）．He said，"It is always good to do the standardized patients because it keeps you thinking about how your thought process has to go，and how you can narrow down your differential diagnosis while you're asking questions．"
The actors enjoy it too．Retired engineer Ted Bell says the students find the experience very helpful，and that makes him feel good．
