科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2014年高考限時(shí)訓(xùn)練（2）英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

In a moment of personal crisis, how much help can you expect from a New York taxi driver? I began studying this question and answers are interesting.

One morning, I got into three different taxis and announced，“Well，it's my first day back in New York in seven years.I've been in prison.”Not a single driver replied，so I tried again.“Yeah，I shot a man in Reno.”I explained, hoping the driver would ask me why, but nobody asked.The only response came from a Ghanaian driver，“Reno? That is in Nevada？”

Taxi drivers were uniform sympathetic when I said I'd just been fired.“This is America，”a Haitian driver said.“One door is closed.Another is open.”He argued against my plan to burn down my boss' s house.A Pakistani driver even turned down a chance to profit from my loss of hope；he refused to take me to the middle of the George Washington Bridge—a $20 trip.“Why do you want to go there? Go home and relax.Don't worry.Take a new job.”

One very hot weekday in July, while wearing a red ski mask and holding a stuffed pillowcase with the word “BANK” on it, I tried calling a taxi five times outside different banks.The driver picked me up every time.My ride with a Haitian driver was typical of the superb assistance I received.

“Let's go across the park，” I said.“I just robbed the bank there.I got $25,000.”

“$25,000？” he asked.

“Yeah，you think it was wrong to take it？”

“No, man.I work 8 hours and I don't make almost $70.If I can do that，I will do it too.”

As we approached 86th and Lexington, I pointed to the Chemical Bank.

“Hey，there is another bank，”I said，“Could you wait here a minute while I go inside？”

“No，I can't wait.Pay me now.” His unwillingness may have had something to do with money—taxi drivers think the rate for waiting time is too low—but I think he wanted me to learn that even a bank robber can't expect unconditional support.

A．he was afraid of the author

B．he thought the author was crazy
