完形填空。
    Last autumn I spent a week at a big hotel in London. It was one of those modern hotels   1   every room
is the same size   2   has the same furniture looking just like   3   other room.
    My room was 311. One   4  , I got back to the   5   after a dinner with some friends. When I opened the
door to my room I saw a(n)   6   scene. A man was pointing a handgun   7   a woman sitting in a chair, and

daren't wait for the   8   -and found a waiter in the hall. "Quick," I cried, "someone is being   9   in my room."
Controlling his surprise he came back with me,  10  when we opened the door of 311, the room was  11 .
The waiter looked at me  12  and said: "I think, sir, you  13  go to bed," and left. I was  14  puzzled to say
anything, and thinking that I must have had too much to  15 , I followed his  16 . The next morning, I asked
about the matter, and the  17  was simple, I had gone to Room 411, where a famous  18  and his wife had
been practising a scene from their new  19 . When I told them that it was I who had rushed into their room,
they laughed and gave me a  20  to see the play for the opening night.
