【2】she didn’t like being cut out late by herself．by oneself 被某人自己。
【3】分析本句的句子，根据前文因为没有人想去看表演，她只有自己去看。have to 表示客观需求。文章整体是过去，所以用had to。

【4】分析本句的句子结构，可知这是一个定语从句，句子的意思是：她很确定这是她停车的地方。表示地点用where。

【5】在英语中，only to do是固定搭配，意思是“不料(却)……,结果(却)……。

【6】文章上文讲到她只有一美元，尽管翻遍了钱包由于本空格后面dream是可数名词，再根据句意：那只是一个梦想，故用不定冠词a。

【7】分析句意，可知她意识到她之前把车停在Pike 街。可知此事发生在这件之前，故用过去完成时；

【8】分析本句的句子结构，可知主动用ing，作伴随状语。
