One  of  the  qualities  that  most  people  admire  in  others  is  the  willingness  to  admit  one's  mistakes.

It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that,”and it is even

harder to say,“I was wrong, and you were right about that.”

I  had  an  experience  recently  with  someone  admitting  to  me  that  he  had  made  a  mistake  fifteen years  ago.  He  told  me  he  had  been  the  manager  of  a  certain  grocery  store  in  the  neighborhood where  I  grew  up,and  he  asked  me  if  I  remembered  the  egg  cartons  (箱子).Then  he related(提到) an incident and I began to remember clearly the incident he was describing.

I  was  about  eight  years  old  at  the  time,and  I  had  gone  into  the  store  with  my  mother  to  do  the weekly  grocery  shopping.  On  that  day,I  must  have  found  my  way  to  the  dairy  (乳品的)  food department where the incident took place.

There  must  have  been  a  special  sale  on  eggs  that  day  because  there  was  an  impressive  display  of eggs  in  dozen  and  half-dozen  cartons.  The  cartons  were  stacked(堆放)  three  or  four  feet  high.  I must  have  stopped  in  front  of  a  display  to  admire  the  stacks.  Just  then  a  woman  came  by  pushing her  grocery  cart  and  knocked  off  the  stacks  of  cartons.  For  some  reason,I  decided  it  was  up  to

me to put the display back together,so I went to work.

The  manager  heard  the  noise  and  came  rushing  over  to  see  what  had  happened.  When  he appeared,I  was  on  my  knees  examining  some  of  the  cartons  to  see  if  any  of  the  eggs  were broken,but to him it looked as though I was the criminal(罪犯).He severely scolded(责骂)

me  and  wanted  me  to  pay  for  any  broken  eggs.  I  protested(抗议)my  innocence  and  tried  to explain,but  it  did  no  good.  Even  though  I  quickly  forgot  all  about  the  incident,obviously  the manager did not.

61.The author was___________when he wrote this article.

A. about 8     B. about 23  C. about 18  D. about 15

62.Who should have been blamed for knocking off the stacks of cartons?

A. The woman  B. The manager.

C. The author.  D. The author's mother.

63.When the manager scolded him,the author____________.   .

C. did not say anything  D. tried to explain

64.It can be inferred that the author____________.   .
