One summer day my father sent me to buy wire for our farm. At 16, I liked【C1】______better than driving our track,【C2】______this time I was not happy. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit(赊账)at the store.
Sixteen is a【C3】______age, when a young man wants respect, not charity. It was 1976, and the ugly【C4】______of racial discrimination(歧视)was【C5】______a fact of life. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then stand, head down, while the store owner【C6】______whether they were "good for it." I knew black youths just like me who were【C7】______like thieves by the store clerk each time they went into a grocery.
My family was【C8】______. We paid our debts. But before harvest, cash was short. Would the store owner【C9】______us?
At Davis’s store, Buck Davis stood behind the cash desk, talking to a farmer. I nodded
【C10】______I passed him on my way to the hardware shelves. When I brought my【C11】______to the cash desk, I said【C12】______, "I need to put this On credit."
The farmer gave me an amused, distrustful(不相信的)【C13】______. But Buck’s face didn’t change. "Sure," he said【C14】______. "Your daddy is【C15】______good for it." He【C16】______to the other man. "This is one of James William’s sons."
The farmer nodded in a neighbourly【C17】______. I was filled with pride. James William’s son. Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.
That day I discovered that the good name my parents had【C18】______brought our whole family the respect of our neighbours. Everyone knew what to【C19】______from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself【C20】______much to do wrong.

选项
A、watched
B、caught
C、dismissed
D、accused
答案
A
解析
本题考查动词词义辨析。watch的意思是“看待、看”,catch的;意思是“抓住、赶上”,dismiss的意思是“遣散、打发”,accuse的意思是“控告、指控”:根据文章白勺意思,每次当黑人小孩去商店时,售货员就会把他们看成是小偷—样。所以本题的正确答案为A。
