One night, I 39the last bus and didn’t have enough money to take a taxi. With no other choice, I decided to 40the two-kilometer journey home, which would have been fine 41

I were not so tired that day. It also didn’t 42that the route was pretty rough（凹凸不平的）and dark. But I walked forward with 43, with the promise of a night’s rest 44me on. After walking for a few minutes, a car 45in front of me. The driver, who looked 46, asked where I was headed. “Not many people walk through here,” he said, and 47me a ride.

答案解析：

一个漆黑的夜晚，作者独自行走在崎岖不平的小路上。正走着，一辆车停了下来……

小题1:A　由下文的bus station，take another bus可知，作者每天乘公共汽车去上课。

小题1:B　由上文的studying for my Masters programme可知，作者是去新加坡上课。

小题1:B　作者返回Johor Bahru车站的时候，天已经很晚了。下文的dark，night是提示。

小题1:C　由下文作者步行回家的事实可以判断，作者误了末班车。

小题1:D　误了公交车，又没有足够的钱打车，作者只好步行回家。下文的walked是提示。

小题1:A　如果不是那天“我”太累的话，步行回家也未尝不可。

小题1:B　糟糕的是，路崎岖不平，且一片漆黑。help此处意为“改善状况，促进”。

小题1:D　作者本身很累，加上天黑，路不好走，所以应该是“艰难地(with difficulty)”往前走。

小题1:A 回家休息的想法支撑着“我”，促使“我”往前走。

小题1:B　走了几分钟，一辆车停在“我”面前。

小题1:A　司机问“我”要去哪里，看起来很关心的样子。concerned关心的，忧虑的。

小题1:C　offer sb.a ride让某人搭车。

小题1:A　司机绕路把作者送回家，这使作者非常高兴。cheer...up(使)感到振奋，(使)感到高兴。

小题1:D　然而，更意味深长的是司机让“我”搭车背后的故事。

小题1:B　作者在夜里步行回家的情景使这位司机想起了他的叔叔。下文多次出现的uncle是提示。

小题1:D　他叔叔以前常走这条路。

小题1:D　虽然他经常在这条路上看到叔叔，但是他从来没有让叔叔搭过车。下文的not being kinder to his uncle是提示。

小题1:A　叔叔去世是一件让人难过的事情。

小题1:C　他为未能善待叔叔而自责。guilty感到内疚的。

小题1:B　有了这种情结，当司机看到作者时，便义无反顾地停下来提供帮助。
