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.

Fifteen percent of US teenagers aged 12 to 17 who own mobile phones have received nude（裸体）or nearly nude images of someone they know, according to a survey released on Tuesday.
Only four percent of mobile phone-owning   1 in that age group have sent sexually suggestive pictures of themselves, a practice known as "sexting,"   2 the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project.
The Pew survey found that girls and boys were equally as likely to have sent a suggestive picture to   3 person and 4   teenagers were more likely to have engaged in "sexting."
Eight percent of 17-year-olds with mobile phones have sent a sexually provocative（刺激的） image 5   texting and 30 percent have 6   a nude or nearly nude image on their phone.
Only four percent of 12-year-olds have sent suggestive images of   7 .
Amanda Lenhart, a senior research specialist at Pew and the author of the report, said sexually suggestive images have become a   8   of "relationship currency" for teens.
"These images are    9 as a part of or instead of sexual activity, or as a way of starting or 10 a relationship with a significant other," she said. "And they are also passed 11 to friends for their entertainment value, as a joke or for   12 ."
"The desire for risk-taking and sexual exploration during the teenage years   13 with a constant connection via mobile devices creates a 'perfect storm' for sexting," said Lenhart.
"Teenagers have always grappled with issues around sex and   14   , but their coming-of-age mistakes transgressions have never been so easily   15   and stored for others to see," she added.
The survey found that teens with unlimited text messaging plans were more likely to receive "sexts"   16   images of people they know. About 75 percent of mobile phone owning teens have unlimited plans.
Among this group, Pew said 18 percent reporting receiving "sexts"    17   with eight percent of teens on    18   data plans and three percent of teens who pay per message.
According to Pew, 58 percent of 12-year-olds own a mobile phone and 83 percent teens aged 17   19    .
Pew noted that a number of US states are grappling with how to 20 "sexting" among minors and some legislatures(立法机关) have stepped in to consider laws that would downgrade charges from felonies（重罪） to misdemeanors（轻罪）.
Pew conducted telephone interviews with 800 teens aged 12 to 17 and their parents between June 26 and September 24.
