阅读理解 Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient. At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction. I started wondering why I refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it. Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think Istopped because it's part of a contract(契约)we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it is an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights. Trust is our first inclination(倾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust. We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.1.Why did the author get impatient while driving?A.He was lonely on the road.B.He was slowed down by a truck.C.He got tired of driving too long.D.He came across too many traffic lights.2.What was the author's immediate action when the traffic light turned red?A.Stopping still.B.Driving through it.C.Looking around for other cars.D.Checking out for traffic police.3.The event made the author strongly believe that __________.

BADD解析【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。昨晚作者在路上被一辆开得很慢的卡车困在后面，无法超车。可当行到开阔的十字路口时又亮起了红灯，尽管四周没人但作者还是停下了车。后来作者反思：让他停下来的不是法律，是人们之间的相互信任。作者为自己当晚的“停车”决定感到自豪。1.根据第一段的“Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.”可知：在一条狭窄的路上我几次被困在一辆开得很慢的卡车后面，左边是白线，无法超车。所以我变得越来越没耐心。【考点定位】考查细节理解。2.根据文章中的第二段“I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop.”可知：当我接近交通灯时，红灯亮了，我停了下来。故选A。【考点定位】考查细节理解。3.根据文章的最后一段 “Trust is our first inclination(倾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust.”可知：这是文章的中心思想，是文章的核心。我们的社会需要相互信任。【考点定位】考查判断推理。4.根据第3、4段的作者自己的反思和第5段的结论的概括总结后，作者为自己那天晚上做出“停车”的决定感到自豪。【考点定位】考查判断推理。
