参考答案: B
参考解析: 本句的意思是：陌生人的友好或好奇伴我游遍了欧洲、北美、亚洲以及南部非洲。这里是指作者通过搭便车的方式由陌生人带着前往这些地方，因此选take。 make的意思是“使某人······”，无论是意思还是用法都不适合放在这里。travel意为“旅游”，常用于表示某人去什么地方旅游，例如：He has travelled to many places in the country．他已经游览了家乡的许多地方。cross意为“通过，交又”。
on the road意为“在路上”。该句意思是：途中有些让我搭便车的人和我成为朋友，很多人都曾盛情接待过我。
这句话是通过把搭便车旅行和几种其他的旅行方式相互比较，从而说明搭便车旅行的好处有哪些。因此这里应选择when。
根据上下文可知，这里问的是如今hitchhiking的情况如何，而不是books 或者是songs，因此这里应选择it。
hundreds of是固定用法，意思是“几百个”，例如hundreds of StudentS。
sky意为“天空”; space意为“空间”; map意为“地图”; heaven意为“天堂”。该句意思是说伊朗是搭便车旅游者的天堂。
本题为结构衔接题。as在这里引导一个从句。like和for后只能接名词。 since在这里语意不符合。
general feeling意为“普遍的感受，总体的感觉”。big, large，和little都不可以和feeling搭配。
must和should后不可以跟to，只能接动词原形。have to后也不可以接to。 只有need to do sth.的用法，意为“需要做某事”。
according to意为“根据”; owing to和due to都是“因为”的意思；with re-spect to意为“关于”。该句意思是“根据一位给我写电子邮件的波兰妇女······”。
根据下面一句话中“pick up the most hikers"，可以推断这里填pick up，意思是“开车接某人”。
根据前一句话可以得知是drivers pick up hikers。
fence意为“篱笆”; barrier意为“障碍”; gap意为“差异”; stone意为“石头”。这里是说打破陌生人之间的障碍。
global warming是固定词组，意思是“全球变暖”。
因为句中说到搭便车会提高教育水平，education和这里的lessons相互对应，意思是通过提供实时的地理、历史、政治和社会学课程的方式，搭便车提高了教育水平。
