【解析】36. C too…to… 表示“太……而不能”,选 C项,作者有意打破沉默,以免司机因为疲劳而出问题。
37. B 四个短语的含义:A“条件是”,B“害怕,唯恐”,C“相信”,D“以便”。语境表示害怕司机开车会太疲劳而有意和他攀谈,因此选B项。
38. B 这个故事发生在晚上,司机说他送完我这趟就回家,由此判断选B项,表示“出行”。A“夜晚”,C“循环”,D“过程”都不符合语境。
39. A 问了第一个问题之后,我接着对他发问。用throw out表示“随口说出”,如throw ont one’s suggestion“说出某人的建议”。B“赠送,泄露”,C“编造,虚构”,D“导致,造成”。
40. D 从这个司机的回答看,他不像别的出租车司机那样辛苦,他如此自在,这让“我”感到十分诧异。这里用easiness表示“自在,自如”。
41. D 我每次坐出租车的时候,从司机那儿听到的都是抱怨,说他们要从清早工作到深夜……这里用hear表示“听见,听到”。

46. A 这里用hardly…Without的双重否定表示肯定的含义:很幸运,我几乎从来没有拉过空车。
47. A 从下文叙述判断选A项,从来不跟在跑空车的出租车后面,这样的车向南开,他就开车往北去。

51. B 从生活常识可知,高山上的氧气稀薄,因此选B项。
