—Oh, which _______? There are two ______ in our office.

C


解析:

在通常情况下,专有名词具有“独一无二”性,因此它通常没有复数形式,即不可数。但是,专有名词的独一无二性有时是相对的,随着范围的扩大,这种独一无二性便会受到破坏。如在一个星期(week)内,只有一个星期六(Saturday), 一个星期日(Sunday)等,但是在一个月中甚至一年中,便有多个星期六,多个星期日了。所以我们有时可以说:We have spent many happy Sundays there. 我们在那儿度过了许多个愉快的星期日。另外一点值得注意的是,与一般的名词单数变复数不同,以“辅音字母+y”结尾的专有名词,其直接加词尾-s,而不将y改为i。

Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process. The instructor asked us to list  41  in our past that we felt  42  of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.?

This seemed like a very  43  process, but there’ s always some  44  soul in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then  45  that we find ways to  46   people, or take some action to right any wrongdoings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever   47   my communication.

Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story. Making my   48  , I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff  49   of us kids liked. One night, my two friends and I decided to play a  50  on him.?

After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall water tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is an s.o.b. The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious  51  . Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one  52  found out.

Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown’s name  53  on my list. I didn’t even know if he was still  54  . Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed. I tried his number. After a few  55  , I heard, “Hello?” I said, “Sheriff Brown?” Paused. “Yes.” “Well, this is Jimmy Calkins.”

“And I want you to know that I did it!” Paused. “I knew it!” he yelled back. We had a good laugh and a  56  discussion. His closing words were: “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you  57   your friends got it off their chest, but you were carrying it  58  all these years. I want to thank you for calling me…for your sake.”

Jimmy inspired me to  59  all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: It’ s never too late to  60  the past wrongdoings.?
