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. "
【C2】
选项 A、single
B、alone
C、one
D、apart
答案B
解析 从句意看，作者不想单独坐，因此坐到了一个男人的对面。B项alone表示"单独的，一个人的"，是正确答案。A项single作表语时意思是"单身的"，因而用在此处意思不合适。D项apart是副词，意为"离开，相隔"，用在此处意思相差更远。
