Answer 1

答案：
解析：

1．一輛小汽車正在行駛，突然被警察攔住，開車的來(lái)訪者必然要問原因．“What's the matter?”意思是“怎么回事？”此空應(yīng)填matter． 　　2．on the side of是固定的介詞短語(yǔ)，意思是“在……的邊上(一側(cè))”．此空應(yīng)填on． 　　3．根據(jù)下邊來(lái)訪者說(shuō)的“But you said was driving on the right side”可以推斷出，這里是來(lái)訪者對(duì)警察責(zé)怪汽車開在路的右邊不理解．警察說(shuō)的right為“右”，來(lái)訪者誤解為“正確的”．此空應(yīng)填wrong表示“錯(cuò)誤的”． 　　4．此空應(yīng)填right．right作形容詞帶人稱主語(yǔ)時(shí)，是指某人的陳述、判斷或意見是正確的． 　　5．在英國(guó)汽車靠路的左側(cè)行駛，因此靠右側(cè)行駛是錯(cuò)誤的．但right一詞既可以作“右邊”解，又可以作“正確的”解，顯然來(lái)訪者混淆了這兩種概念．因此對(duì)警察攔住汽車很不理解，故此空應(yīng)填stop表示“攔住”． 　　6．根據(jù)警察說(shuō)的“The right is left”可以判斷出此空應(yīng)填left．這里是警察堅(jiān)持讓來(lái)訪者開車靠左行，這是英國(guó)的行車習(xí)慣． 　　7．根據(jù)前句“I want to go to Oxford Street”可判斷出該句是問路，故填way． 　　8．根據(jù)空白后“and right is wrong”可推斷出，此空應(yīng)填left．這里來(lái)訪者已從警察那里理解了開車左行正確、右行錯(cuò)誤這一交通規(guī)則． 　　9．參照空白后“But if you turn right，you'll be wrong”可判斷出，此空應(yīng)填從屬連詞if表示“如果”，引導(dǎo)一個(gè)條件狀語(yǔ)從句． 　　10．空白后復(fù)合句表示的汽車轉(zhuǎn)向右行錯(cuò)誤，與該空前的復(fù)合句表示的轉(zhuǎn)向左行正確所表達(dá)的是轉(zhuǎn)折意義，所以此空應(yīng)填表示轉(zhuǎn)折意義的并列連詞But．
