Answer 1

1-5 ABBCB    6-10 DABAD 11-15 BCACC   16-20 DBACB本文介绍了Harriet Tubman帮助黑奴逃跑的事迹。1. A因为她是黑奴所以没有上学的"机会"。2. B根据下文"she ran away from the planta?tion"可知她当时在fields干活。3. B奴隶主强迫奴隶在地里劳动，然后卖掉他们的收成以赚取大量钱财。4. C fairly表示"公正地 公平地"，奴隶主强迫奴隶在地里劳动，所以哈里特认为她受到了不公平的对待。注意该句主句为否定形式。5. B There与in Canada并列，都是地点状语。6. D feel / be sorry for表示"为……感到难过"。7. A still表示"仍然"。8. B前文提到哈里特逃到北方，现在应该是"返回"南方帮助其他的黑奴逃往北方。9. A make sure that为固定句型，表示"确保，保证"。若用possible 则需在made后面加形式宾语it代替that从句作宾语，possible作补语。10. D从下文的内容可知她处于"危险"之中。11. B"通过"法律用动词pass。12. C runaway为复合形容词，用作前置定语，表示"逃跑的，跑掉的"。13. A pay some money to sb."给某人支付钱"，为固定搭配。14. C奴隶主对哈里特恨之人骨，对她悬赏捉拿。15. C她"总共(in all) "往返19次。16. D此处指获得"自由"。17. B根据上下文的语境可知应是战争"爆发(break out) "。18. A standby表示"站在……一边，支持19. C该句用spied最佳，表示哈里特假扮成护士为北方做侦察工作。如果用stayed表示"待在敌后"和hid表示"藏在后面"，都不妥。20. B根据最后一句可知哈里特在战后"积极"投身于民权运动和争取妇女权利的运动之中。
