請依下文回答第 26 題至第 30 題： We lived on Waverly Place, in a warm, clean, two-bedroom flat that sat above a small Chinesebakery specializing in steamed pastries and dim sum. In the early morning, when the alley was stillquiet, I could smell fragrant red beans as they were cooked down to a pasty sweetness. By daybreak, ourflat was heavy with the odor of fried sesame balls and sweet curdled chicken crescents. From my bed, Iwould listen as my father got ready for work, then locked the door behind him, one-two-three clicks. Atthe end of our two-block alley was a small sandlot playground with swings and slides well-shined downthe middle with use. The play area was bordered by wood-slat benches where old-country people satcracking roasted watermelon seeds with their golden teeth and scattering the husks to an impatientgathering of gurgling pigeons. The best playground, however, was the dark alley itself. It was crammedwith daily mysteries and adventures. My brothers and I would peer into the medicinal herb-shop,watching old Li dole out onto a stiff sheet of white paper the right amount of insect shells,saffron-colored seeds, and pungent leaves for his ailing customers. It was said that he once cured awoman dying of an ancestral curse that had eluded the best of American doctors. Next to the pharmacywas a printer who specialized in gold-embossed wedding invitations and festive red banners. Fartherdown the street was Ping Yuen Fish Market. The front window displayed a tank crowded with doomedfish and turtles struggling to gain footing on the slimy green-tiled sides. Inside, the butchers with theirbloodstained white smocks deftly gutted the fish while customers cried out their orders and shouted,“Give me your freshest,” to which the butchers always protested, “All are freshest.”
