1. A。根據(jù)下文60年代矛盾沖突（指白人對黑人的種族歧視），下文提到了一個(gè)白人青年幫她，因此可判斷老太太是“黑人”。

2. B。從第15空前的 freeway 一詞可以得出此題答案。

3. C。從下文 she decided to flag down the next car 說明她的車“拋錨”了。

4. B。因?yàn)檐噿佸^了，所以她“非常”需要搭車，只有 badly 符合此意。

5. D。從下文 in his car 得出答案。

14. B。根據(jù)第一空已經(jīng)得出答案是一位黑人婦女，因此選 dark。

17. B。not only…but（also） 是固定搭配。

18. D。從上文可以得知，當(dāng)老太太的車子拋錨時(shí)，那個(gè)白人青年及時(shí)地出現(xiàn)在她跟前，并給予了幫助。……
