The instructor asked us to list _16_ in our past that we felt _17_ of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.This seemed like a very _18_ process, but there s always some _19_ soul in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then _20_ that we find ways to _21_ people, or take some action to right any wrong doings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever _22_ my communication.Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my _23_, I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff _24_ of us kids liked. One night, my two buddies and I decided to play a _25_ 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 _26_. Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one _27_ found out.”“Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Browns name _28_ on my list. I didnt even know if he was still _29_. 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 _30_, 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 _31_ discussion. His closing words were: “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you _32_ your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it _33_ all these years. I want to thank you for calling me.for your sake.”Jimmy inspired me to _34_ all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: Its never too late to _35_ the past wrong doings.16.

A。ashamed 意为“羞愧的”，根据后面列举的几项，不应该是“害怕的(afraid)”的事情。18. A。private 意为“私人的、保密的、不让人知道的”。上述事情都属于个人隐私，不宜公开。19. D。brave 意为“勇敢的”，尽管是隐私不宜公开，但在自愿者中也有勇敢的人。20. B。suggested 意为“建议”，句子谓语用的动词原形，是虚拟语气，可先排除expected；从说话者语气看，不是“命令”，所以可排除ordered和demanded。21. C。这里教员建议要做以下几件事情：to make apologize to people“向人们道谦”，(to) take some actions right any wrong doings“采取措施纠正错误的所作所为”。22. A。本来作者是参加一个交际培训班，而现在教员所要学员做的一切似乎与培养交际能力无关，所以作者很纳闷这是否能提高(improve)他的交际能力。23. B。make a list 意为“列表、造表”。24. C。none of us kids liked是定语从句，前面省略了关系代词whom / that(代替Sheriff)， 选none表示Jimmy(由短文最后可知此人是Jimmy)和他的少年伙伴都不喜欢那位郡长 (Sheriff)，与下文吻合。25. C。play a trick on sb 意为“捉弄某人”。26. B。sign 意为“记号、标记、符号”，指Jimmy他们写的字。27. D。ever用于否定句表示“在任何时候、从来”，由于Jimmy说了谎话，所以“从来就没人查明事实真相(found out)”。与下文“几乎20年后再提及此事”相呼应。28. A。appear 意为“出现”，指Sheriff Brown的名字被列在表上。29. D。alive 意为“活着的”，此时Jimmy还不知道Sheriff Brown是否活着，与后面他们接通电话，证实了Sheriff Brown还活着。所以此处不宜用其他形容词。30. B。ring 意为“铃声”，这里指电话被拨通。31. D。由we had a good laugh 可知 Sheriff 和 Jimmy 进行的是热烈的(lively)讨论。所以不宜选其他形容词。32. D。后面的句子说明原因，故选 because 引导原因状语从句：因为你的伙伴都把他们做的错事给忘了。(from )33. A。around 意为“大约”，此句表示：而 Jimmy 却这些(nearly20年)年来一直把他所做过的错事记在心头。34. C. clear up 意为“消除、解除”，此句意为：在两年里Jimmy鼓励了我消除在我的表上的所有101项(做错了事情)。35. C。 right 意为“纠正”，此句意为：纠正过去的不道德行为还为时不晚。*结束
