1、“My name’s Jim Shelley and I’m an addict(有癮的人)…”

With these words I began to  36  the problem, the problem of my telephone addiction. I used to call people  37 , from the moment I woke up to the time I went to sleep. I  38  to be phoned, I wanted to phone. Just one more call.

It started socially ― a few calls each day. It seemed  39 , just a quick chat. Gradually though, the  40  got worse. Soon it was  41  use, until, finally, addiction.

And it began to affect(影響) my  42 . During the day I would disappear for  43  call. If I couldn’t make a call, I spent the whole time waiting for the phone to ring. Getting more and more  44 , in the end, I would ring someone, then someone else,  45  myself just one more call.

I was phoning people and  46  messages to make sure  47  calls would see me through the day. I used to arrive at friends’ homes and before the door was closed, go straight for the phone with the  48  “Is it OK if I just use the phone…?” At work, I became  49  when my fellow workers tried to  50  me from using the phone. And one day I hit my boss (with the phone). Finally, the police caught me  51  a phone box that had taken my last one pound coin, and I was  52  to see a psychiatrist(心理醫(yī)生).

I haven’t  53  a phone in the house for three weeks now, and it’s several days  54  I used a phone box. I try not to watch TV because there are  55  people on it making phone calls. My name is Jim Shelley and I am an addict.
