(2013·江西九校高三联考)One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Avenue,____ I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wish to buy only one pair is ____. I turned into the first sock shop that ____ my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old ____. “What can I do for you, sir?”“I wish to buy a pair of socks.”His eyes glowed. There was a note of ____ in his voice.“Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks?” I had not been aware of that, as my entrance had been ____. “Come with me,” said the boy,excitedly. I followed him to the back part of the shop, and he began to haul down from the shelves box after box,____ their contents for my enjoyment.
“Hold on, young man, I am going to buy only one pair!”“I know that,” said he,“but I want you to see ___ beautiful these are. Aren't they wonderful?” ____ was on his face an expression of solemn and holy pleasure,____ he were revealing to me mysteries of his religion. I became far ____ interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. “My friend,” said I, “if you can keep this up, if this is not ____ the enthusiasm that comes from novelty, from having a new job, if you can keep up this enthusiasm and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every ____ in the United States.”
My amazement ____ his pride and joy in salesmanship will be easily understood by all who read this article. In many shops the ____ has to wait for someone to wait upon him. And when ____ some clerk does notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him. Whether he is ____ in deep thought in which he hates to be disturbed or he is chatting with a girl clerk, you feel like ____ for “being too rude”.
He displays no interest either in you or the goods he ____ to sell. Yet possibly that very clerk who is now so apathetic began his career with hope and ____. The daily grind was too much for him; the novelty wore off; his only pleasures were found outside of working hours. He became mechanical, he became incompetent, and then he saw younger clerks who had more zest in their work, promoted over him. He became sour. That was the last stage. His usefulness was over.

He       eight kids and they live in the United states but     of them live near him in Florida and nor do they visit him. I     him once a day to check on him and spend some     time with him.
I even watch TV with him that I don’t even      , but the       is that he feels someone is there       him company.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s       filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so       that I decided to write an article about her.
I       Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career .She       and told me to come to her Studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of mind. I       I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there      , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…?” I soon realized that       Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The       was almost unbearable. I struggled for days       draft(草稿)after draft. Finally I put my manuscript(手稿)into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.
It didn’t take long. My manuscript      . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I      
in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t       the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.
Five years later, I was moving to California. While       my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in      :
Ms Profit,
Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some       materials. Please add those and return the article immediately. We would like to       your story soon.
Shocked, it took me a long time to      . Fear of rejection cost me greatly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and the chance of having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of       writing. Today, I have become a full-time writer. Looking back on this      , I learned a very important lesson: You can’t       to doubt yourself.

It was unusually quiet in the emergency room on December 25. I didn’t think there would be any    , sighing about having to work on Christmas. Just then five bodies       at my desk, a pale woman and four children.
“Are you all       ?” I asked. “Yes,” she said weakly and lowered her head.
But when it came to     of their problems, things got a little strange. They all claimed to have headaches, but the headaches weren’t       by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still.
Something was wrong. Our hospital policy,       , was not to turn away any patient. I explained it might be a little while       a doctor saw her. She responded immediately, even a bit       “Take your time,” and then added, “It’s warm in here.”
Then, I checked their registration form out of curiosity. No address—they were      .The waiting room was warm. I went back to the nurses’ station and mentioned we had a homeless      in the waiting room. The nurses, complaining of       on Christmas, turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get       on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when there’s a       emergency. But this was a Christmas emergency.
We were all       a free meal on Christmas Day, so we took back that meal and prepared a big dinner for our    .We needed presents. We    from different departments candies, fruits and other things     that could be presents. As seriously as we met the      needs of the patients, our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas.
      , as the family walked to the door to leave, the mother came         back, gave me a hug and whispered, “Thanks for being our angels today.”

Although the Garden God had made him the most beautiful place that there could ever be, Adam was lonely.
Adam needed some   . So God reached into the ground again and took some more stuff from the earth. This time he made every kind of animal and every kind of bird. He brought them all to Adam to see   he would call them. It must have   a long, long time to think up all those   ! Luckily, he didn't call them things like 'Foo Foo' or “Snuggems”or 'Pooky' or anything like that.     , he called them 'gerbils' and 'rabbits' and 'rhinoceroses'. And he   the birds 'eagles' and 'egrets' and 'ruby throated warblers'.
Well,     , we don't know what Adam named them,     he didn't speak English. But he named each kind, and that's important because people are the only ones that name things. Your   knows what a squirrel is, but he doesn't call   a squirrel. He just barks   it! But naming things is one of the things that shows we are   from all the other creatures that God made.    
    even with all the animals around to keep him company, God saw that Adam was    sad. Monkeys are fun to play with, but they don't have very much to say and they have   table manners.
