她正要走进电梯时，看到电梯里已经有两位男乘客。两位都是黑人，其中一位个头很高，体型令人望而生畏。这位女士一下子愣住了。她的第一反应是：“这两个男人会打劫我。”她转而又想：“不要戴着有色眼镜看人；他们看上去完全像是绅士。”然而，种族偏见的力量是强大的，恐惧使她浑身发凉。她定在那里，眼睛紧盯着眼前两位男子。上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 focus1textBackNext 3 As she

要不要进去和他们同乘一部电梯？她迟疑不决的态度已经太过明显了。她涨得满脸通红。老站着不动也无济于事，于是她横下心来，抬起一只脚往前挪，接着另一只脚也跟了进来，站在电梯内。她不敢抬眼，僵直地转过身，脸朝外，这时，电梯门合上了。时间一秒一秒地过去。她越来越害怕！电梯纹丝不动。她陷入了恐惧的深渊。“我的天啊，”她暗忖，“我被困在这里，要遭人劫财！”她的心往下沉，每个毛孔都在冒汗水。Meaning:She

很显然，他在极力忍住不笑出来。该女士心想：“我的天啊，真是丢人现眼，出大洋相了！”她羞愧难当，默不做声。她想要道一声歉，却不知如何开口。把两位绝对体面正派的绅士看作劫匪，如何请求他们的谅解？她不知该怎么说。他们三人拾起散落的硬币，重新放进了桶里。21She felt apologetic and embarrassed.上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 focus1text6.How did
