Question

Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, a distance of about 80 miles. It was late, I was late, and I was driving 1.
At one point along an open highway, I came to a crossroads with a traffic light. I was 2 on the road by now, but as I came near the light, it turned 3, and I braked to a stop. I looked left, right, and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of headlights, 4 there I sat, waiting for the light to 5, the only human being, for at least a mile in any 6.
I started wondering why I 7 to run the light. I was not afraid of being caught, because there was 8 no policeman anywhere around and there certainly would have been no 9 in going through it.
Much later that 10, after I’d met with a group in Lewisburg and had climbed into bed near midnight, the question of why I’d stopped for that light 11 me. I think I stopped 12 it’s part of a contract(契約) we all have with each other. It’ s not only the law, but it’s an agreement we have, and we trust each other to follow 13: we don’t go through red lights.
We do 14 we say we’ll do. We show up when we say we’ll show up.
I was so 15 of myself for stopping for that red light. And as no one would ever have known what a good person I was on the road from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, I had to tell s someone.

文章主旨大意：本文是一篇議論文。文章通過作者沒有闖紅燈這件事，號召我們無論何時何地為了自己和他人的安全都要遵守交通規(guī)則。
1.由上文中的late可知天已黑，作者回家晚了，可推知開車加速，fast意為“迅速地”。
2.由下文“Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of headlights”可推知作者一個人，故答案選B項，意為“獨自的”。
3.由下文的作者剎車和交通常識可知紅燈亮了。
4.由下文中的waiting for the light可知雖然路上什么都沒有，“可是”作者依然停下車等候。
5.考查根據(jù)上文可知紅燈亮了，所以作者停下來等交通燈變綠后通行，故答案選B項，意為“改變”。
6.由上文中的a mile可知指的是“距離任何方向”，in any direction 指“任何方向”。
7.由下文“I was not afraid of being caught ”故可推知“作者想知道自己為什么沒有闖紅燈呢？”，故答案選A項，意為“拒絕”。
8.由上文可知作者“不害怕被逮住”可推知是“因為清楚周圍沒有警察”，故答案選D項，意為“清晰地；清楚地”。
9.考查由上文可知沒有警察，故可推知“闖紅燈”就沒有“被逮住”的“危險”了，故答案選A項。
10.由下文中的bed和 near midnight可知是晚上。
11.根據(jù)上文中的I started wondering why I rufused to run the light和 the question of why I’d stopped for that light可知“晚上”作者思考的是同樣的問題，故答案選D項，意為“回到……”。
12.由下文It’s not only the law, but it’s an agreement we have可知作者之所以停下來的“原因”是這是彼此之間的一份承諾，故答案選C項，意為“因為”。 
13.由下文we don’t go through red lights可知這是“一條”交通規(guī)則，故答案選B項，相當于the rule。
14.what連接的從句，在句中作動詞do的賓語。
15.聯(lián)系上下文可推知作者為自己沒有在任何監(jiān)督的情況下能自覺遵守交通規(guī)則而感到“自豪”，故答案選C項，意為“驕傲的；自豪的”。
