　　A

　　Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，a __1__ of about eighty miles.It was late and I was in a hurry.However，if anyone asked me how fast I was __2__，I'd say I was not over-speeding.Several times I got __3__ behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road，and I was holding my fists tightly with __4__.

　　At one point along an open highway，I __5__ a crossroads with a traffic light.I was alone on the road by now，but as I __6__ the light，it turned red and I braked to a stop.I looked left，right and behind me.Nothing.No cars，no suggestion of headlights，but there I sat，waiting for the light to __7__，the only human being for at least a mile in any __8__.

　　I started __9__ why I refused to run the light.I was not afraid of being __10__，because there was obviously no policeman around，and there certainly would have been no __11__ in going through it.

　　Much later that night，after I __12__ a group of my friends in Lewisburg and climbed into bed near midnight，the question of why I'd stopped for that light __13__ me.I think I stopped because it's part of a contract（合同）we all have with each other.It's not only the __14__，but it's an arrangement we have，and we trust each other to __15__ it：we don't go through red lights.Like most of us，I'm more likely to be __16__

　　from doing something bad by the social convention that __17__ it than by any law against it.

　　It's amazing that we ever __18__ each other to do the right thing，isn't it？And we do，too.Trust is our __19__

　　preference.

　　I was so __20__

　　of myself for stopping for the red light that night.

　　1. 答案：B

　　解析：哈里斯堡（Harrisburg）和路易斯堡（Lewisburg）兩個地方之間的“距離（distance）”大約是八十英里。D項表示“長度”，語意不恰當。

　　2. 答案：B

　　解析：本段開頭部分提到作者當時開車行駛在兩地之間，所以此處描述的是“開車”的速度。

　　3. 答案：C

　　解析：在一條狹窄的道路上，作者好幾次被前面一輛行駛緩慢的卡車“困住”了，即無法超車。

　　4. 答案：D

　　解析：根據本段第二句的內容可知作者當時急于趕路，所以非?！安荒蜔┑亍蔽站o了拳頭。

　　5. 答案：B

　　解析：在一條開闊的公路上，作者“來到（came to）”了一個有交通燈的十字路口。

　　6. 答案：C

　　解析：當“靠近（approached）”交通燈時，燈變成了紅色，作者于是踩了剎車。

　　7. 答案：B

　　解析：作者坐在那里，等待交通燈“變成”綠色。

　　8. 答案：D

　　解析：上文提到作者環顧左右和后面，但是一片空蕩蕩，由此可知作者是至少一英里之內任何一個“方向”中唯一的人。

　　9. 答案：A

　　解析：雖然當時四周沒有一個人，可是作者仍然沒有闖紅燈，于是作者開始“疑惑”自己這樣做的原因。后三項分別表示“懷疑”“掙扎”“遺憾”，均不符合語境。

　　10. 答案：B

　　解析：作者不害怕被“罰款”，因為四周沒有交警。fine“處……以罰金”，符合語境。

　　11. 答案：A

　　解析：由于當時周圍沒有人，闖紅燈當然不會有“危險”。

　　12. 答案：A

　　解析：在當晚的晚些時候，作者“見到”了一群朋友。后三項分別表示“克服”“擺脫”“回電話”，都不符合語境。

　　13. 答案：B

　　解析：上一段的開頭部分提到作者不知道自己當時為什么沒有闖紅燈，此時作者又“回想起”這個問題。

　　14. 答案：C

　　解析：作者認為自己之所以停下來是因為這是“我們”所有人彼此之間合同的一部分，它不僅僅是“法律”，而且是“我們”達成的協定。此外，第17空后面的law也是線索提示。

　　15. 答案：A

　　解析：“我們”彼此信任對方會“執行”這一協定：“我們”不闖紅燈。honor表示“信守，執行”，符合語境。

　　16. 答案：A

　　解析：像“我們”中的大多數人一樣，作者更可能被社會慣例“制止”做被其認為是不好的事情。后三項分別表示“保護”“拒絕”“害怕”，均不符合語境。

　　17. 答案：D

　　解析：相對于被法律制止做些不正確的事，作者更傾向于被社會慣例制止住。disapprove of“不贊成”。前三項分別表示“談及”“支持”“吸收”，均不符合語境。

　　18. 答案：B

　　解析：“我們”總是彼此“信任（trust）”對方去做正確的事情，這非常令人驚奇。此外，第15空前面的trust以及第19空前面的trust都是線索提示。

　　19. 答案：B

　　解析：作者強調彼此之間應該互相信任，這是“我們”的第一選擇。

　　20.

　　答案：D

　　解析：作者通過深思感悟到當時的行為非常正確，為那天晚上沒有闖紅燈感到無比“自豪”。

　　B

　　1. 答案：B

　　解析：從下文第11空后的counter可知，此處表示“收銀臺”，故選B項。

　　2. 答案：C

　　解析：她向我買的報紙瞥了一眼（glanced）說：“我早就厭煩了（tired of）頭版那些消極的消息了，我想讀些好（good）消息，換換口味?！边@里glance at是固定詞組，表示“對……看一眼，瞥見”。

　　3. 答案：A

　　解析：根據下文說“想換換口味”可知，這里應是指已經厭倦了現在的頭版消息。

　　4. 答案：B

　　解析：參見第2題解析。這里表達的意思應該與negative相反，所以選good，也可從第6空后的a good news newspaper得到提示。

　　5. 答案：A

　　解析：實際上（In fact），“我”認為人們應該出版（publish）一種只有好消息的報紙。
