2. Why does the narrator pick up a hitchhiker?

Explanation

The narrator picks up a hitchhiker because he remembers when he was a hitchhiker and no one in a nice car would stop to pick him up. This suggests that the narrator empathizes with the hitchhiker and wants to help him out, possibly because he knows what it feels like to be ignored and left stranded.

Submit
3. Why won't the hitchhiker steal anything from the narrator?

Explanation

The hitchhiker won't steal anything from the narrator because the narrator is nice and gave him a ride. This implies that the hitchhiker feels a sense of gratitude towards the narrator and does not want to betray their kindness by stealing from them.

Submit
4. Why does the hitchhiker want the narrator to speed the car to as fast as it will go?

Explanation

The hitchhiker wants the narrator to speed the car to as fast as it will go because he wants to test the car dealer's claim about its maximum speed. By pushing the car to its limits, the hitchhiker hopes to determine whether the car dealer was truthful or exaggerating about the car's capabilities.

Submit
5. What did the hitchhiker say his job was?

Explanation

The hitchhiker claimed to be a fingersmith. This term refers to a skilled thief or pickpocket who is adept at using their fingers to steal valuables without being detected. This explanation is supported by the fact that the other options, goldsmith and silversmith, are occupations related to working with precious metals, and pickpocket is a more general term for a thief. Therefore, fingersmith is the most appropriate answer based on the given options.

Submit
6. Where did the hitchhiker want to go?

The hitchhiker wanted to go to the horse tracks.

Submit

Submit
9. What does the police officer that's rude?

Explanation

The correct answer is "He spits on the car." This answer is supported by the fact that the other options (farting, burping, spitting on the wheel) do not directly involve the police officer's interaction with the car. Spitting on the car can be seen as a disrespectful and rude behavior, which aligns with the question prompt.

Submit

The car was going at a speed of 129 mph.
