.Chris is not a traditional explorer(探险家)—he usually works in an office for a large organization. However, Chris’ job can be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.
Chris works for MSF, an organization also known as Doctors Without Border(国界). Since 1971, MFS has sent trained doctors all over the world to help people who have suffered from disasters, such as wars and illnesses. Chris is a doctor from France who has traveled to many places to organize programs that help people.
At the moment, over 27,000 trained doctors have taken part in MSF projects. The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF. They need to be ready to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should face difficulties. Most of MSF’s work is in Africa. When MSF chooses a doctor for a task, they have to go for at least six months. When doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency(紧急的) task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.
But why would doctors leave a comfortable life and a good pay to join MSF? According to Chris, the experience they have is a great help in their life. What’s more, just like the explorers of the past, they need to keep an open mind and learn to get on well with the people they meet. One thing that they can say at the end of any task is that they have made a real difference to people’s lives.

A few of years ago, I went to Australia for a meeting with my friend, Chris. We decided to drive across country to Brisbane after the meeting ended(结束). The drive was going to take four days and most of it was across the desert(沙漠),    1   
The first day was a lot of fun as we were excited and laughing at each other's stupid(愚蠢的) jokes. By the third day of driving in the seemingly endless(无边的) desert, we began to get bored. We had been quiet for a few hours when in the distance(在远处) Chris found some kangaroos(袋鼠). We were both excited and decided to get a closer(更近) look.  2  .We got closer and closer, and Chris was doing 110 kilometers per(每) hour. We were very close to the kangaroos—too close—when we heard a loud BANG!
Chris stopped the car and we got out. Behind the car was a larger kangaroo lying completely still on the ground.   3  He took off his sunglasses and put them on the kangaroo and did the same with his jacket. Then, he put his arm around the kangaroo and told me to take a photo of them together.  4  While I was focusing(聚焦) the camera, I saw the kangaroo move. It suddenly woke up(醒来), looked at Chris, and jumped away into the distance before we could do anything.
I started laughing(笑) but Chris looked very serious(严肃).   5   I started laughing even harder(更厉害). I stopped laughing, however, when he said that our car keys were also in the jacket!

A. Chris speeded up(加速) to catch up with the kangaroos.
B. He said his wallet and passport(护照) were in the jacket.
C. In order to (为了)get there in three days, we drove very fast.
D. so we had to take food, water, and extra (额外的)gas with us.
E(AB). Chris went over to the kangaroo and put his baseball cap on its head.
F(CD). I was still surprised, but I took out my camera.
