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(同伴) 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 lied. No one __47__ 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__, 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 __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 101 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. 小题1: A.something B.anything C.somebody D.anybody 小题2: A.ashamed B.afraid C.sure D.proud 小题3: A.private B.secret C.interesting D.funny 小题4: A.foolish B.polite C.simple D.brave 小题5: A.expected B.suggested C.ordered D.demanded 小题6: A.connect with B.depend on C.make an apology to D.get along with 小题7: A.improve B.continue C.realize D.keep 小题8: A.notes B.list C.plan D.stories 小题9: A.any B.most C.none D.all 小题10: A.part B.game C.trick D.record 小题11: A.view B.sign C.attention D.remark 小题12: A.also B.even C.still D.ever 小题13: A.appears B.considers C.presents D.remembers 小题14: A.angry B.happy C.doubtful D.alive 小题15: A.words B.rings C.repeats D.calls 小题16: A.cold B.plain C.nervous D.lively 小题17: A.in case B.so long as C.unless D.because 小题18: A.around B.out C.on D.away 小题19: A.build up B.make up C.clear up D.give up 小题20: A.regret B.forgive C.right D.punish
