subway)。expect“期望”。2d由语境可知，作者一直希望快点到，在堵车的漫长等待中最关心的是时间，所以应该是不停地看表。3c句意为：当车正要启动时，司机发现前方有一位残疾人正坐在轮椅上(在路边等车)。spot意为“发现”。4apull over意思是“把开到路边”。由语境可知，司机很同情这位残疾人，所以把车开到路边，让他上车。5c由前文可知，由于堵车，“我”已经等了很长时间，现在司机停下车让那位残疾人上车(包括弄轮椅等)，所以“我”还得在车里再等20分钟。6c由常识可知，出租车要比轮椅高，所以司机是把这位残疾人从轮椅上抱起，然后放进车里。lift意思是“抬起”。indicate“指示”；recommend“推荐”；urge“敦促”。7a由常识可知，旅客的行李应放在车尾的行李箱(trunk)内，轮椅也是这样。8b这里指的是上文“我”所说的“what are you doing？”，所以用words，指“(简短的)一句话”。句意为： 话一出口，我就想收回来。9a由于意识到了自己的错误(抱怨司机停车让那位残疾人上车)，所以这里说自己对司机所做事情的这一反应(reaction)是错误的。assumption“假设”；conscience“良心”；privilege“特权”。10b由下一句可知，这里应该是：使自己很震惊(shocked)，以至于都不相信是自己说出口的。11d从下文的描述来看，司机对“我”的言行没有理会，所以应选ignored。12b根据下文ran的暗示以及上文的叙述可知：由于“我”对自己所说的话感到很后悔，所以下车后“我”逃到了办公室。只有flee最符合当时的情景。13a下文描述的是自己对这件事情的感受，所以用feeling(感觉，感受)。而不是motto(座右铭)，dream(梦想)或determination(决心)。14cparticularly表示程度，意思是“特别地，程度很大地”。此处意为：我不是特别以自我为中心的人，但是仍对自己(某种程度的以自我为中心)感到很内疚。15cguilty“内疚的”。 .a经过一位老人的艰苦劳作，一片不毛之地被改造成了一片美丽的橡树林。16a细节理解题。 由文章第二、三段可知老人植树是他选择的度过余生的方式，并不是为了纪念自己的妻儿，故选a。 17d细节理解题。由文章最后一段the traveler stood there recalling the desolation that once was; a beautiful oak forest stood there nowal
