I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenager girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads, coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something,“I’m awfully sorry,”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

解析：此文是记叙文，叙述盲人作者因为害羞而不愿向别人求助的故事。
【小题1】细节理解题。由本文第一句（I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. ）可知。其中 ashamed 与embarrassing 属于同义重现。
【小题2】细节理解题。由第二段前三句，特别是第三句（When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost）可知。
【小题3】细节理解题。由But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.可知，其中give up与no attempt to 属于同义重现。
【小题4】推理判断题。由Sometimes I would stop a big lorry可知，靠声音来判断有时是靠不住的。
【小题5】推理判断题。从I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself可知，她本人不想拦车了，又由managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help可知，她是决定找人帮忙了，而在本站没有人，去下一站当然就是希望在那里可以找到人帮忙。此题易错选D，其中的more helpful 表达有误。
