问题   Hello, my name is Richard and I am an ego surfer. The habit began
about five years ago, and now I need help. Like most journalists, I can’t
deny that one of my private joys are seeing my byline in print.  Now the【S1】________
Internet is allowing me to feed this vanity to ever greater extent, and the【S2】________
occasional sneaky web search has grown into a full-blown obsession for【S3】________
how high up Google’s ranking my articles appear where I put my name【S4】________
into the search box.  When I lastly looked, my best effort was a rather【S5】________
humiliating 47th place. You know you have a problem how you find【S6】________
yourself competing for ranking with a retired basketball player from the
1970s.
  Not that I’m lonely for suffering from a dysfunctional techno-habit.【S7】________
New technologies have revealed a whole raft of hitherto unsuspected
personality problems; think crackberry, power-pointlessness or
cheesepodding. Most of us are familiar in sending an e-mail to a【S8】________
colleague sitting a couple of feet away instead talking to them. Some go【S9】________
onto the web to snoop on old friends, colleagues or even the first dates.【S10】________
More of us than ever reveal highly personal information on blogs or My
Space entries. A few will even use Internet anonymity to fool others into
believing they are someone else altogether. So are these web syndromes
and technological tics new versions of old afflictions, or are we
developing fresh mind bugs?
【S7】
选项
答案lonely—alone
解析 词义混淆。lonely表示“孤独的，寂寞的”，而alone有“独自一个人的”之意。本句的意思是“有这种反常的技术习惯的人可不止我一个。”因此应该使用alone。
