【解析】

本文講述了“我”和哥哥一起開車回家，但是路上迷路了，但是路上遇到一個車壞了的男人。“我們”幫助了他，幫他換了輪胎，他不斷感謝“我們”在他如此無助的時候給予他的幫助。“我們”本來心情不是很好，但是“我們”能夠看到一個幫助他人的機會，并把錯誤轉(zhuǎn)化為正能量，而這種正能量只能來自于平靜和開放的心態(tài)。

【1】句意：因為我哥哥轉(zhuǎn)錯了方向。

wrong錯誤的；different不同的；slow慢；round圓；根據(jù)下文“We took a wrong turn.”可知此處是因為我哥哥轉(zhuǎn)錯了方向，故選A。

【2】句意：我哥哥支付過橋費。

borrowed借進；refused拒絕；paid付錢；got得到；根據(jù)下文“the bridge toll”及“the mistake and the needless waste of $4.”可知此處是付了錢，故選C。

【3】句意：他顯然對這個錯誤和不必要的4美元浪費很不高興。

excited激動的；interested感興趣的；surprised驚訝；unhappy不開心的；根據(jù)“the mistake and the needless waste of $4.”可知這個錯誤和不必要的4美元浪費，所以知道哥哥是不開心的，故選D。

【4】句意：當(dāng)我們終于到達出口時，我的哥哥發(fā)現(xiàn)一個年輕人在靠邊停車。

finally最后；hardly幾乎不；simply僅僅；completely完全地；根據(jù)前文走錯路，沒地方掉頭，所以只能付了過橋費繼續(xù)走，所以可推測出此處是“終于到達出口”，故選A。

【5】句意：我的哥哥發(fā)現(xiàn)一個年輕人在靠邊停車。

woman女人；man男人；girl女孩；boy男孩；根據(jù)下文“when my brother pulled over and asked the man”可知是個男人，故選B。

【6】句意：我正忙著想知道我們下一步該走哪條路時。

find out找到，發(fā)現(xiàn)；put out撲滅；carry out執(zhí)行；break out爆發(fā)；根據(jù)“I was busy trying to ___6___ which way we would go next”可推測出是“找到下一步該走哪條路”，所以用“find out”，故選A。

【7】句意：問那個人是否需要幫助。

advice建議；help幫助；food食物；money錢；根據(jù)那個男人車壞了，所以此處是提供幫助，故選B。

【8】句意：需要一個扳手。

returned返回；sold賣；needed需要；showed展示；根據(jù)下文“My brother gave him a wrench”可知那個男人需要扳手，故選C。

【9】句意：然后開始幫他換輪胎。

make制作；change改變，更換；run跑；buy買；根據(jù)上文“He had a flat tire”可知此處是幫他換輪胎，故選B。

【10】句意：這是他倒霉的一個星期。

quiet安靜；busy忙碌；funny有趣的；bad壞的；根據(jù)“earlier he got into an accident, and now the flat tire on his way home from work.”可知那個男人是倒霉的一個星期，故選D。

【11】句意：現(xiàn)在下班回家的路上車胎又癟了。

turn轉(zhuǎn)動；way方法；car汽車；road路；on one’s way home表示“在某人回家的路上”，故選B。

【12】句意：并不斷感謝我們在他如此無助的時候給予他的幫助。

greeting問候；calling打電話；thanking感謝；suggesting建議；根據(jù)上文我們幫助了他及下文“he thanked us again”，所以他感謝我們，所以此處缺“感謝”，故選C。

【13】句意：我們完成換輪胎后。

After之后；If如果；Before在……之前；While當(dāng)……時；根據(jù)“he thanked us again and tried to give $20 to us.”可知是“我們完成換輪胎后”，所以用“After”，故選A。

【14】句意：但現(xiàn)在我們知道為什么了。

when什么時候；where哪里；how如何；why為什么；根據(jù)后文“It was to help you.”可知是給出了理由，所以可推測出此處是“why”，故選D。

【15】句意：謝謝你把我們的錯誤變成了幫助別人的機會。

knocking敲門；falling摔倒；turning轉(zhuǎn)變；pushing推；根據(jù)turn… into表示“把……變成”，結(jié)合“Thank you for _____15_____ our mistake into a chance to help others.”可知此處是缺“turn”，故選C。
