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.

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.

选项
A、guessed
B、suspected
C、questioned
D、figured
答案
C
解析
本题考查动词的问义辨析。guess的意思是“猜测、猜想”,suspect的意思是“怀疑”,question的意思是“质问、检查”,figure的意思是“明白、搞清”。文中的意思是当黑人去赊账时,店主会不断地询问他们的情况,看他们是否讲信用。所以本题的正确答案为C。
