4.We often see hitchhikers(搭便车的人),standing by the side of the road,thumb sticking out,waiting for a lift.But it is getting(21)C nowadays.What killed hitchhiking?(22)B is often mentioned as a reason.Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime (23)D many drivers off picking up hitchhikers.(24)D no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester(25)D reflects the safety fear(26)D,strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.But the reason may be(27)B complex:hitchhiking happens where people don't have cars and transport services are (28)A.Plenty of people (29)C hitchhike in Poland and Romania.Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange.Why can't they (30)A cars?Why can't they take the coach or the train?
Three-quarters of the UK population have (31)D a car; many of the (32)B will be quite old.The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small.(33)Cmy trip proves it's still possible to hitchhike.The people who picked me up were very interesting lawyer,retired surgeon,tank commander,carpenter,man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple (34)A in the mountains.My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes(家伙) in red,spotted scarves.Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn't help(35)A.
The future of hitchhiking most (36)Alies with car-sharing organized over the Internet,via sites such as hitchhikers.org.But for now,you can still stick your thumb out (actually,I didn't do much of that,(37)Cjust to hold up my destination sign) and people-wonderful,caring,sharing,unafraid people-will stop.
In the UK,with its cheap (38)B and reasonable rail service,I don't think I'll make a habit of it.But having enjoyed it so much,I'm ready now to do a big trip (39)A Europe and beyond.In the 1970s a female friend of my wife's hitchhiked to India.How wonderful it would be to have another go,(40)B Afghanistan might be a challenge.I wish I'd got that tank commander's mobile number.

21.C.形容词辨析.A.有价值的;B.几乎不;C.稀少的,稀有的;D.少的,上一句是说在公路旁边,我们经常看到搭便车的人,而这一句的开头用了but一词,可知这里与上一句形成了对比,即这种情况现在很少看到有了.故选C.
22.B.名词辨析.A.害怕;B.安全;C.允许;D.花费,下文是说那些关于谋杀搭便车人以及现实生活中犯罪的电影让很多司机都不敢载路边想要搭便车的人,因此可知是安全问题使得人们不敢搭载想要搭便车的人,故选B.
23.D.这句话是说那些关于谋杀搭便车人以及现实生活中犯罪的电影让很多司机都不敢载路边想要搭便车的人,主语是movies,所以谓语动词用复数,且movies和drivers之间不存在被动关系,故选B.
24.D.代词辨析.A.什么;B.哪一个;C.是否;D.那,那个,这句话是说没有一个人愿意载我到曼彻斯特这件事反映了人们担心安全这一问题,这里考查到定语从句,空格处没有实际意思,因为no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester是修饰空格处的代词的,what/whether不可做定语从句的先行词,故选D.
25.D.短语辨析.A.没有;B.没有必要;C.没有原因;D.毋庸置疑,这句话是说没有一个人愿意载我到曼彻斯特的这件事毋庸置疑地反映了人们担心安全这一问题,故选D.

28.A.形容词辨析.A.穷的,落后的;B.重的;C.繁忙的;D.方便的,句意:搭便车这种事一般发生在人们没有车那些地方,根据人们没有车这个信息可以推测出这些地方的交通服务应该是比较落后的,故选A.
29.C.副词辨析.A.几乎不;B.总是;C.仍然;D.绝不,上一句作者说搭便车这种事一般发生在人们没有车那些地方,而这一句话刚好是紧接着上一句话,因此我们不难推测在波兰和罗马尼亚,很多人仍然要求搭便车,故选C.
30.A.动词辨析.A.支付;B.提供;C.影响;D.冒犯,这一段的前面讲搭便车这种事一般发生在人们没有车交通比较落后的那些地方,因此我们可以推测这里作者是想问为什么他们支付不起买车呢?故选A.

37.C.名词辨析.A.假装;B.准备;C.倾向于;D.辩护,防护,括号部分句意:事实上,我并没有做太多那样的事,我只是更倾向于拦截我目的地的标志.故选C.
