Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process. The instructor asked us to list ___21___ in our past that we felt ___22___ of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.
This seemed like a very ___23___ process, but there’ s always some ___24___soul in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then ___25___ that we find ways to ___26___ people, or take some action to right any wrong doings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever ___27___ my communication.w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m
Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my ___28___, I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff ___29___ of us kids liked. One night, my two buddies(伙伴)and I decided to play a ___30___ 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 SOB(畜生). The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious___31___. Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one ___32___ found out.”
“Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown’s name ___33___ on my list. I didn’t even know if he was still ___34___. Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Sheriff Brown still listed. I tried his number. After a few ___35___, I heard, “Hello?” I said, “Sheriff Brown?” Paused(停顿). “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 ___36___ discussion. His closing words were, “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you ___37___ your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it ___38___ all these years. I want to thank you for calling me...for your sake.”
Jimmy inspired me to ___39___ 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 ___40___the past wrong doings.

I was caught in the war and put to prison．I was sure that I was to be killed，I became terribly nervous．I reached in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes(香烟)，which had   36__ their search．I found one and because of my 37 hands，I could only get it to my lips.But I had no 38 ．
I looked   39 the bars(铁栏)at my jailer(狱警)．He did not make eye contact with me．I called out to him,“Have you got a light?” He looked at me，and came over to 40 my cigarette．
As he came close and lit the match，his eyes met with mine．At that moment，I smiled I don't know 41 I did that，Perhaps it was 42 ，perhaps it was because，when you get very close，one to another，it is very hard not to 43 ．In any case，I smiled．It was   44   a spark(火花)jumped across the distance between our two hearts．I know he didn't want to，but my smile jumped through the bars and caused a smile on his lips．He lit my cigarette but stayed near，looking at me 45_ in the eyes and continuing to smile．
I kept smiling at him，now   46 of him as a person and not just a jailer．And his looking at me seemed to have a new   47 ，too．“Do you have kids?” he asked．
“Yes，here，here．”I took out my wallet and nervously searched for the pictures of my family．He, too，took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his 48 and hopes for them．My eyes were filled with   49 ．w*w^w.k&s#5@u.c~o*mI said that I feared that I'd never see my family again，never have the chance to see them grow up．Tears came to his eyes，too．
Suddenly， 50  ，he unlocked my cell(牢房)and silently led me out．Out of the prison，quietly and by   51 routes，out of the town．There，at the edge of town，he set me   52 ．And without another word，he turned back toward the town．
My life was 53 by a smile．
Yes, the smile—the unaffected，unplanned，natural connection between people．I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could   54 each other，we wouldn’t be enemies．We couldn’t have 55 or envy or fear．

During my second year of college, I was looking around for a place to live. One Sunday after church, the pastor(牧师) told me to stay in his daughter’s room because his daughter was studying abroad for one year.[来源:学*科*网Z*X*X*K]
To be 36 , I really didn’t want to stay with “the pastor’s family”. He told me how much the 37 would be---a very low figure that 38 one home-cooked meal a day. I thought about the 39 and decided to move in.
At the end of the term I had planned to find  40 living place, since the daughter was to 41 home. To my delight, they 42 that I share a room with their son. I seemed to have been adopted into their 43 ----their people became my people. I   44 accepted the offer.
As I emptied the daughter’s bedroom, I thought it might be 45 to have a little sister to look after. But when I later met my new sister, I 46 that she was more independent than I first 47 .
We finally fell in love, 48 , and have looked after each other for many years. There have been times that life turned out more 49 than either of us could have known. But we have always been able to go 50 largely because we knew that we are deeply  51 .
It isn’t about marriage… It’s about 52 . It’s about mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers and special friends who are as 53 as family. It’s about anybody who can say, “I’ll be 54  ----you can count on me. I’ll try to look after you and sometimes I will need you to look after me.
Is there somebody you can depend on? And are others counting on you? We travel the path of life best when there is 55 to look after, and when someone is looking after us.

It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words, “a brilliantly（精彩地）written book”. However, he then went on to talk about Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.
And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t. In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9. The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out ),I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten . But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell’s 1984. I think it’s really brilliant.
The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either )and Herman Melville.
Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in –depth!
But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J. k. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I’ll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).
【小题1】How did the author find his friend a book liar?

A．By judging his manner of speaking.

B．By looking into his background.

C．By mentioning a famous name.

D．By discussing the book itself.

【小题2】Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?

A．Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.

B．42% of people pretended to have read 1984.

C．The author admitted having read 9 books.

D．Dreams From My Father is hardly read.

【小题3】By lying about reading, a person hopes to.

A．control the conversation

B．appear knowledgeable
