Question

It is three in the morning on a Tuesday, and I’m walking toward table eighteen, the one I call home. I pass the waiters, give a brief nod to the  1.  and take my seat. I  2.  the “usual,” water and peanut butter pie. Yes, I’m at an all-night diner.

I start to take out my books,  3. full well that I will be  4. on the same page of Socrates that I’ve been on for the better part of the semester. Of course, it’s   5.  —for my group that is. I wait for the empty chairs around me to be   6.  .

Just as the Muzak songs start to repeat themselves, Shana and Jenny walk in. I am   7.   with the usual big hugs and smiles. 8. , the diner stops being a twenty-for-hour restaurant with bad service and becomes my place—my home   9. the prisonlike dorm room. For the next couple of hours, we will joke about people we know, talk about books, reflect on the meaning of life, quote movies and  10. new private jokes. Table number eighteen is our  11.  home.

During my senior year of college, I started going to the diner for a temporary escape from a dorm room that felt like it was closing in on me. Not to 12.  the phones, the stereo and the computer. How could anyone seriously  13.   to have good study habits? Some friends of mine told me about the place; they went there to study, and they really liked it.

So I tried it. It felt remarkably freeing. I start going there every night (except weekends, of course), and, believe me it was not because the pies were   14.  great either. Maybe it would force me to open my books and my  15.  would improve. Right? Well….

But that’s not the   16. . I mean, anyone who has gone to college knows that it’s not only about forcing yourself to wake up at 7:45 A.M. (after you had gone to sleep two hours earlier) to listen to a professor spoon-feeding you information  17. the significance of the Battle of Hastings. It is  18. about finding a little haven where you can create what will be the most important thing in your life—yourself. At a school of thirty-five thousand people, I found a small place that was as   19. to me as my Social Security number.

Through laughter, tears, learning, growing and the   20. free ice cream, we found a sanctuary. A place where we could be ourselves.

考點：考查情感類完型填空

點評：本文本句抽象，講述的是一個大學生找到了一個餐廳可以讓自己安靜地學習并和朋友在一起開心地度過很多快樂的時光。本文要求考生具有扎實的英語詞組、短語、習慣用法等英語搭配的知識，這對于理解文章的邏輯關系特別有利。文章的邏輯關系不外乎列舉、原因、結果、讓步、對照、補充、目的、條件等關系。解題時應聯系上下文尋找相關線索，如某一個詞的原詞、指代詞、同義詞、近義詞、上義詞、下義詞和概括詞等。但由于我們在做題時不可能總是重復地閱讀文章，因此，在做完形填空時要培養(yǎng)一種捕捉并記憶相關信息的能力。
