The woman got into her car,locked the car doors,and pulled out of the parking lot.A man in a pickup truck pulled out right behind her and(55)  ,staying just inches from her car.Every few seconds,he turned on his bright lights.

Her heart beat quickly as the woman drove home.When she got to her driveway(私人车道),the man in the pickup truck followed right behind her.The woman threw open the car door and(56)  .Halfway to the front door,she fainted(晕倒).

When the woman came to(苏醒),she saw a man beside her.He was the man in the pickup truck!"It's OK,"the man said and pointed to (57)  lying on the ground nearby.The man's hands and feet were tied.

"I'm the one who followed you,"the stranger said."I had just got to the parking lot of the all﹣night store when I saw a man(58)   and he down in the backseat.Then you came out of the store and got into the car.There was nothing I could do but follow you.I turned on my bright lights(59)  the guy tried to get up from the backseat.I tried to let him know I was behind you.When you got out of your car,he tried to run away.I hit him with my tire iron.He had a knife,(60)  he didn't get a chance to use it.The police are on their way here.I'm sorry I scared you."
