what is special about this clown’s job
Check the anwers
This clown works in a hospital or other health care facilities. His job is to comfort, entertain and cheer up patients, their families as well as the hospital staff in order to remove their nervousness and make them feel better.
Clown doctors are professional clowns working in hospitals with sick children.
They use humour, music, storytelling and magic shows to keep patients entertained. Most importantly, they keep patients laughing and laughter helps to reduce pain and stress levels, and to boost the immune system. Humour also helps to promote a positive outlook and helps people to make friends with each other, both of which are important factors in healing and fighting disease.
Clown doctors are more familiar in the West. The first clown doctor, Patch Adams, worked in the US in the 1970s.

Paraphrase
本句中的as引导时间状语从句，意为“当……时”；wearing my white coat作伴随状语，其逻辑主语为I，两者为主动关系。在any other doctor中，any意为“任何一个”，所以doctor用单数形式。
As I approach the hospital wearing my white coat, I look just like any other doctor.
approach在这里是及物动词，意为“接近”。
approach 还可作不及物动词，意为“临近；走近 ” 。
Our holiday is approaching but we still haven’t decided where to go.

twice也可换为其他表示倍数的表达，即 ... times （倍数）+ the / its + size / height / length / weight / amount / width + of…。
