One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Street, when I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wished to buy only one pair is unimportant. I turned into the first sock shop that caught my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old came forward, "What can I do for you, sir" "I wish to buy a pair of socks." His eyes shone. There was a lot of excitement in his voice, "Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks" I had no idea of that, as my entrance had been accidental(偶然的). "Come with me," said the boy, eagerly. I followed him to the back of the shop, and he began to pull down from the shelves box after box showing their socks for my choice.
"Hold on, lad, 1 am going to buy only one pair "I know that," said he, "but I want you to see how beautiful these are. Aren’t they wonderful!’ There was on his face an exp

[简答题]I am lonely only when I am overtired, when I have worked too long without a break, when for the time being I feel empty and need tilling up. And I am lonely sometimes when I come back home after a lecture trip, when I have seen a lot of people and talked a lot, and am full to the brim with experience that needs to be sorted out. Then for a little while the house feels huge and empty, and I wonder where my self is hiding. It has to be recaptured slowly by watering the plants, perhaps, and looking again at each one as though it were a person, by feeding the two cats, by cooking a meal.

It’s not that we thought things were fine. It’s just that this year there were no fixes to the messes we made—no underwater off-well caps, no AIG bailouts, no reuniting the island castaways in a church and sending them to heaven. We had to idly watch things completely fall apart, making us feel so pathetic that planking seemed like a cool thing to do. This was the year of the meltdown.
