After forty-three years I have forgotten the name of the old lady, who was a   16   on the newspaper route in my hometown when I was a twelve-year-old boy. Yet it remains in my memory that she taught me a lesson in     17   that I shall never forget.

On a winter afternoon, my fellows and I were throwing stones onto the slanted (倾斜的) roof of the old lady’s house to observe how the stones    18    off the roof’s edge and shot out like missiles.

I was so   23   about getting caught that first night   24   I was not concerned about the old lady with the broken window in winter.    25  , a few days later I started to feel guilty for her misfortune.

I    28   my mind that I would save my newspaper delivery money, and in three weeks I had seven dollars. I put the money in an envelop with a    29   explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and hope that the seven dollars would    30   the cost for repairing it.

Facebook means never having to say goodbye. The social media website has earned a reputation for reconnecting old friends. Last week,a guy whom I hadn't seen since my bachelor party five years ago sent me a friend request. I accepted and waited for “Easy E” to send me a greeting of some kind. He had sought me out,after all.

I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son. However,I'm pretty sure we won't ever write wall-to-wall,let alone e­mail each other. But he'll remain a friend of online until one of us makes a point of removing the other from his official list.

My pool of friends consists of family members,college buddies,co­workers from past and  present,and friends of friends. There are 35 in all. If I spent some time uploading old e­mail addresses,I'm confident that I could increase my friend count actually.

A person could make a mission out of reconnecting with childhood friends,former  classmates,distant cousins, and those one would like to get to know better. And some people can even handle hundreds of on­screen relationships,keeping up with the daily happenings of  their small army of companions. After all,there are worse fates than having too many friends.

Thanks to e­mail,the inability to schedule face-to-face meetings no longer means a  friendship must come to a close. But even with e­mail,people will lose touch if one or both  parties stop writing back. That’s normal. People move from school to school,job to job,city to city. You never have to feel guilty for breaking away.

Every day,the masterminds of Web 2.0 find new ways of making human communication  easier. However,convenience can be a crutch(拐杖).Some things shouldn't be simplified. When it comes to friendship,there can be no shortcuts.

A.There are 35 people in the author's list of friends right now.

B.The author communicates with all the 35 friends by e­mails.

C.The list of 35 friends doesn't include the old e­mail addresses.

D.It is not difficult for the author to increase his friend count.

I had been rather proud of myself when my friends and family got the ticket,whether it was for speeding,parking or stop sign violations (违反).It was something that happened to others. But last Friday I joined the club.

I was asked to do a new project last week. On Friday morning on my way to work,I suddenly remembered that I had spent the past six weeks without considering that I had a week’s vacation planned during that time. I was very disappointed with myself for not remembering it. The fact  is that I was not paying enough attention to my driving and I did not come to a complete stop at the stop sign in front of a school. I was so distracted (思想不集中的)that I didn’t even notice I had a policeman on my tail with his lights flashing. Finally I looked in my mirror and caught on.

The policeman was rude and took my papers. Fortunately,I had everything up to date and since I had never had a ticket before,there was nothing for him to do but write me a ticket. While I was sitting there in the seat of “shame”,I felt bad. If I had been that distracted and a child had run onto the road,perhaps I would have not reacted as well as I could have. It was a wake-up call.

People at work asked me if I tried to talk my way out of it. Frankly,it never occurred to me. I felt guilty. Now I no longer have a clean driving record. Please be careful out there,as a moment’s distraction can lead to tragedy.

A.people who are crazy about driving cars

D.a club for people to talk about their driving stories

3.What made the writer unable to focus on her driving?

A.Planning how to spend the vacation.

B.Thinking of the forgotten vacation.

C.Thinking about her work.
