问题     It is strange that so many of the important meetings in people’s lives take place quite by chance. I could have sat【C1】______ in the train I caught to London on the day I left university because it was almost empty. For some reasons, however, I did not want to be【C2】______ and sat opposite a man who was so absorbed in his newspaper at first【C3】______ I could not see his face.
    After a few minutes he put the paper down with an impatient gesture. He had not realized I was there, and, probably because of his surprise, made a【C4】______ about the weather. Then he glanced at me and said, "End of term?" "The end of university【C5】______ me," I said. I had not really got used to the idea that from then on I was no longer a student. "Well, now you’ve got your【C6】______ , I expect you’re looking forward to a long summer break. " "Not exactly," I said. "The first thing I must do is to look for a job. I’ve got my name down for three or four interviews, but to【C7】______ you the truth, they don’t excite me much. "
    For the rest of the【C8】______ , we talked about my studies. Now I know Mr. Merrick well. He never asks questions to pass the time.【C9】______ we reached London, he knew almost all there was to know about me. As I was saying goodbye, he handed me a business【C10】______ with his name on it and the address of Merrick Enterprises Ltd. in the city.
    "If you run out of ideas during the summer," he said, "give me a ring. "
【C9】
选项 A、At that time
B、By the time
C、In time
D、From time to time
答案B
解析 从上文看，两人在火车上一路聊天，因此，本句的意思是："等到我们到达伦敦时，他已知道了几乎关于我的全部情况"，空格中应填B项。By the time引导的是时间状语从句，其他三项都是副词短语，不能引导从句。
