Usually, stuff that is soft will absorb sound.

answ2. Sound is a vibration of air molecules, and anything that may be made to absorb energy from the molecules will absorb sound. If the material has soft fibres, and can allow the sound to penetrate easily, (is porous) then the collision of sound molecules with the fibres, will transfer the energy from the molecules to the inelastic fibres, where it will be dissipated as heat.

What are the materials that absorb sound waves except for sponges?

It is likely true that absolutely everything is capable of absorbing sound waves; if there are materials that cannot, they would be special indeed. Some materials are much better than others, but even the materials that are most resistant would be absorbing small amounts of energy from sound waves, assuming that the material is in a medium (like air) capable of transporting sound.
