Having driven almost thirty hours, I decided to stay in South Carolina for a few days. The next morning, I purchased a three-day fishing license and bait (饵料) before heading to the lake.
Opening my trunk, I carefully took out my fishing gear (用具), put it on the lake’s edge, baited up and began to fish.
“Good morning,” said someone, walking up from behind me.
Turning around, I saw a game warden (猎场管理员) with a clip-board.
“Good morning,” I said, nodding my head.
“Catch any fish?” he asked.
“No sir, just relaxing and killing time.”
“Can I see your fishing license?”
I handed him the license I had purchased at the bait shop.
“Can I see your driver’s license, too?” he requested.
“I see the name on the driver’s license is spelled Kiser and the name on the fishing license is Kaiser,” said the warden.
“The gentleman at the bait shop must have written it wrong,” I told him.
“Well, I’m afraid I’ll have to write you up for fishing with an invalid license and take away your fishing gear.”
“You’ve got to be kidding,” I responded, with a surprised look on my face.
Sure enough I was written up and my fishing gear taken away. I was told that I would have to pay a fine and that my stuff would be sold at auction(拍卖).
I stood there almost in tears as he drove away. Those rods and reels were very special to me. I had used them over twenty years, fishing with my friends, who were now all dead.
After returning home in Georgia, I telephoned South Carolina trying to explain the situation, but no
one would listen. I was told that the Department of Fish and Game had a “zero tolerance” for fishing and hunting violations. Finally, in tears I paid the fine and gave up the fight.
Nine months later, I received a letter. I had no idea who it was from as there was no return address. On a plain piece of notebook paper was written “Auction for the Department of Fish and Game held this Saturday at 11:00 am.”
On Saturday, at six in the morning I headed to South Carolina. By ten o’clock I had found the auction. There were numerous boats and piles upon piles of fishing equipment. All at once, there it was—my wonderful stuff all thrown in a pile as if it was worth nothing.
As the auction began I took my seat. In my wallet was twenty-seven dollars. For more than an hour I waited for my property to be brought to the auction block.
“We have three rods and reels here. I guess we will sell this as a unit,” said the auctioneer.
“50 dollars,” yelled someone in the crowd.
“51 dollars,” yelled another man.
I rose from my seat and walked out of the auction.
“66 dollars,” I heard as the bidding continued.
“100 dollars,” came another bid. The auction became silent.
“100 dollars once, 100 dollars twice, 100 dollars three times. Sold for 100 dollars,” went the auctioneer.
I walked to my truck, got in and just sat there. Suddenly I heard something hit the side of my truck. Turning around, I saw the back of a man putting my three rods and reels into my truck. It was the same game warden who wrote me the ticket almost a year ago!
As I got out of the truck he stuck out his hand and said, “I wasn’t wrong. It’s the law that is wrong.”
I shook his hand, thanked him and drove away. I cried as I crossed the South Carolina Georgia state line.
1.Who wrote a letter to the writer telling him about the auction?
A.The Department of Fish and Game. | B.The game warden. |
C.A person unmentioned in the passage. | D.The auction organizers. |
2.Why did the writer walk out of the auction while it was going on?

In this digital age, we search almost everything online before we decide what to do. According to a US-based business reviewing website, the top searches at different times of the night in different European countries vary a lot. Below are some of the more interesting findings. Take a look.
Italy: While most Europeans are searching for restaurants or bars around 6 p.m., the Italians are searching for messages, shoes and job agencies.
Germany: Coming from perhaps the most organized and efficient country, the average German is attracted to food and drink. Having looked up restaurants and bars earlier in the evening, they have already been searching for breakfast and brunch by 9 p.m.
UK: Karaoke is one of the most popular pastimes in Asia, but in Europe, the UK seems to be the only nation to look first for Karaoke bars in its Internet searches, roughly around 9 p.m. Later into the night, Britons are going to 24-hour pharmacies (药房)by 10 p.m., and then there is a steady interest in 24-hour food stores and delivery, until 1 a.m.
France: The French call it a day online quite early, at about 10 p.m. But they don't do it until they've had a chance to put their dancing shoes on, after searching for “night club” and “dance”.
Spain: The Spanish seem to be quite practical. They search for elementary schools and dermatology(皮肤科) at 10 p.m., followed by swimming lessons at midnight.
