It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.‎ ‎ At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.‎ ‎ I started wondering why 1 refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman wound, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it..‎ ‎ Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it's part of a contract(契约)we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it is an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights.‎ ‎ Trust is our first inclination(倾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.‎ I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night. ‎ ‎65. The event made the author strongly believe that .‎ A. traffic rules may be unnecessary B. doubting others is human nature C. patience is important to drivers D. a society needs mutual trust ‎ [点拨] D 根据短文第5段，不难判断作者相信一个社会需要互相信任。因此，正确答案为D选项。‎ ‎66. Why was the author proud of himself?‎ A He kept his promise. B. He held back his anger.‎ C. He followed his inclination. D. He made a right decision.‎ ‎[点拨] D 根据短文容易判断作者引以为豪的是对未闯红灯一事所做的决定。因此，正确答案为D选项。‎
