1. 第一个空白处描述的是汽车丢失的时间，根据后文的"That cold morning"可以推断出是冬天，因此应选D（winter）。
2. 第二个空白处描述的是作者将车停在街道上的目的，根据常识和上下文，作者应该是为了汽车的安全而停在街道上，因此应选C（safe）。
3. 第三个空白处是一个转折关系，虽然地方是公共的，但作者把它当作自己的，因此应选D（Although）。
4. 第四个空白处描述的是作者在街道上来回走动的目的，根据上下文，作者应该是在寻找他的汽车，因此应选B（looking for）。
5. 第五个空白处描述的是作者回到停车处看到的情况，根据后文的"exactly the size of my Mini"可以推断出，作者看到的是一小块空地，地面应该是硬的，因为雪已经覆盖了原本停车的地方，因此应选D（hard）。
