Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process．The instructor asked us to list   36 in our past that we felt   37    of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud．
This seemed like a very 38 process, but there' s always some   39 soul in the crowd who will volunteer．The instructor then   40 that we find ways to   41 people, or take some action to right any wrong doings．I was seriously wondering how this could ever 42   my communication．
Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my   43 , I remembered an incident from high school．I grew up in a small town．There was a Sheriff   44 of us kids liked．One night, my two buddies(伙伴) and I decided to play a   45   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 a s．o．b．（畜生）．The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious   46 ．Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office．My friends told the truth but I   47 ．No one ever found out.
Nearly 20 years later．Sheriff Brown's name   48   on my list．I didn't even know if he was still   49 ．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   50 , 1 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   51 discussion．His closing words were: “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you   52 your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it   53 all these years．I want to thank you for calling me for your sake.”
Jimmy inspired me to   54   all the items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: It's never too late to   55 the past wrongdoings．

I moved from Chicago to Brooklyn in July of 2010，just in time to watch my mother die. Our parents were both gone now； I took with me as many things they had left behind as I could.

I was out walking one Saturday later that summer when something caught my eye - a pale green dress. Laid out on the pavement was stuff like earrings, glass candle-holders, books. Hanging on the fence behind were a few pairs of jeans and a green cotton dress.

The woman, the host o£ the stoop (门廊）sale, looked like she was getting rid of a past she didn’t need or want. A dress that was too big for her. A chest of drawers that took up too much space, space she needed, maybe, to heal ，recover, or grow.

I wasn’t planning on buying anything really, but now I needed to show her that I appreciated her things and I would give them a safe home. Then I had my first stoop sale —I paid her 20 dollars for her green cotton dress and her blue candle-holder,

From that day on, I became interested in stoop sales. Some of my favorite things are from someone else’s life. I find no joy in shopping at regular stores any more. I love trying to sniff out a memory from a bud vase or a drawer. It is comforting to know that someone has breathed and laughed inside a sweater before me.

A few weeks ago, I carried my mother’s dresses to a friend’s stoop. These were her best items ，which were once worn by the most important person in my life. For many hours, I watched from across the path people advancing the stoop, some leaving with Mom1S dress. I used to think that her stuff was as forever sacred (神圣的）as my memory of her, I know now that once I love a scarf or shirt too dearly，it needs to find a new home. Even that green dress is long gone by now.

A. she valued the things used by her mom

A. the things the author bought from the woman are too big

B. the author is fond of imagining others’ life experiences

A her mom is the number one person in her life

B. she didn’t really want to sell her mom’s dresses

C. she still thinks of her mother quite often

D. love doesn’t mean holding on to something tightly

4.It can be inferred that the author will ______.

A. not sell her own things at stoop sales

B. keep her mom in her mind in another way

C. be sad about all the memory of her mom

D. move to another city for a new life

Raymond Schneider politely elbowed his way through crowds of customers as he made for the candy bins at Dylan’s Candy Bar in Manhattan. Since he was laid off in December, Mr. Schneider, a 33-year-old designer, says he has become a “gummy junkie,” buying a lot of sweets every time he shops for groceries.

“Sugar is comforting,” he said. “There’s nothing more stressful than growing financial insecurity everywhere.”

The recession (经济衰退) seems to have a sweet tooth. As unemployment has risen, Americans, particularly adults, have been consuming growing amounts of candy, say candy makers, store owners and industry experts.

Theories vary on exactly why. For many, sugar lifts spirits dragged low by the economy. For others, candy also provides a reminder of better times. And not insignificantly, it is relatively cheap.

At Candyality, a store in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, business has jumped by nearly 80 percent compared with this time last year, and the owner, Terese McDonald, said she was struggling to keep up with the demand for Bit-O-Honeys, Swedish Fish and Sour Balls.

“They put candy in their actual budget,” she said.

Many big candy makers are also reporting rising sales and surprising profits.

“Candy companies are relatively recession-proof,” said Peter Liebhold, chairman of the Smithsonian Institution’s work and industry division. “During the Great Depression, candy companies stayed in business.”

1.Raymond Schneider was set as an example to show ________.

A. many Americans were laid off in the recession

B. lots of Americans like candies

C. many Americans in the recession like sweets which are comforting

D. Americans are suffering much in the recession.

2. What does the underlined sentence “The recession seems to have a sweet tooth” mean?

A. Candy consuming rises while people are suffering bad effects of the recession.

B. The recession doesn’t have any bad effect on Americans.

C. Americans are optimistic even though they are out of employment.

D. Candy companies stayed in business during the Great Depression.

3.Which is NOT the reason why people in the recession like sugar?

A. It is relatively cheap.

B. It is comforting and can make a lot of profits.

C. It raises people’s spirits up.

D. It calls up people’s good memories.

4. The best title of the passage is ________.

A. Sugar Is Comforting

B. Candy Companies Stay In Business

C. Americans Have A Sweet Tooth

D. Sugar Sales Rise In The Recession
