Everybody knows that it is dangerous to cross the street without looking both ways in China. However, I had a different experience in Berkeley, a beautiful city in California, US.

I didn't know what to do when I had to cross the roads【1】 my first couple of days there: I wondered whether I should let the car go first or not? Based on my old experience back in China, I would certainly let the car go. "Who wants to be knocked down by a car?" I thought to 【2】.

One day, I was checking for cars while I was waiting to go to the other side of the road. An SUV came fast, toward me, so I stopped and 【3】.

【解析】

作者通過描述自己在美國的一次過馬路的經(jīng)歷呼吁在中國司機和行人之間能夠互相多一些尊重和禮讓，讓過馬路對所有人來說都是安全的。

【1】句意：當我在那里的頭幾天不得不穿過馬路時，我不知道該做什么。

分析句子可知，此處表示“在……期間”，用英語表示是during，是介詞，此處用于句中構(gòu)成短語“during my first couple of days”翻譯為“我在那里的頭幾天”，故填during。

【2】句意：我心想。

分析句子可知，此處表示“我自己”，用英語表示是myself，是反身代詞，此處用于句中構(gòu)成短語“think to myself”翻譯為“我心想”，故填myself。

【3】句意：所以我停下來等。

分析句子可知，此處表示“等”，用英語表示是wait，是動詞，又因為此處與stopped構(gòu)成并列結(jié)構(gòu)，所以也應用過去式，故填waited。

【4】句意：說實話，我有點困惑，因為在中國司機通常在人們走出去之前盡可能快地穿過馬路。

分析句子可知，此處表示“快”，用英語表示是fast，是副詞，修飾其前的動詞drive，此處用于句中構(gòu)成短語“as fast as possible”翻譯為“盡可能快”，故填fast。

【5】句意：在一番禮貌的斗爭后，我讓步了，先走到十字路口。

分析句子可知，此處表示“在……之后”，用英語表示是after，是連詞，此處用于句首，所以需要大寫首字母，故填After。

【6】句意：但那情景仍然一次又一次地浮現(xiàn)在我的腦海中。

分析句子可知，此處表示“一次又一次”，用英語表示是again and again，是副詞，此處用于修飾其前的動詞comes back to，故填again and again。

【7】句意：司機和行人之間的良好的道路舉止意味著和平。

分析句子可知，此處表示“和平”，用英語表示是peace，是名詞，此處用于動詞mean之后作賓語，故填peace。

【8】句意：我真的希望更多的中國人能意識到這一點，讓所有人能安全過馬路。

分析句子可知，此處表示“安全”，用英語表示是safe，是形容詞，此處用于make sb/sth+ adj結(jié)構(gòu)中，故填safe。
