完形填空
As the train approached the seaside town where I was going to spend my holidays, I went into the corridor(走廊)to stretch my legs.I stayed there a short while, breathing in the fresh 1 air and exchanging a few words with one of the 2 , whom I had met earlier on the station platform(站台).
When I turned to get back to my seat, I happened to 3 into the compartment(列车车厢的隔间)next to mine. 4 there was a man who many years before had been my neighbor.He was a great 5 .I remembered it used to take 6 to get away from him once he began a conversation.I was not at all 7 when he went to live in another part of London.We had not met since then, nor did I wish to meet him now, when my 8 was about to begin.
Luckily at that 9 he was much too busy talking to the man opposite him to see me.
I slipped back into my compartment, 10 my two suitcases and carried them to the far end of the corridor so as to be 11 to get off the train as soon as it stopped.The moment the train came to a pause, I called a 12 , who in no time at all had carried my luggage out of the 13 and found me a taxi.As I drove towards my small hotel on the outskirts(市郊)of the town, I breathed a deep sigh of relief at my narrow 14 .There was little chance that I should 15 into my boring ex-neighbor again.
When I reached the hotel, I went straight to my room and rested there 16 it was time for dinner.Then I went down to the lounge(休息室)and ordered a 17 .I had hardly raised the glass to my lips when a 18 voice greeted me.I had not escaped from my tiresome neighbor after all!He grasped me warmly by the hand and 19 that we should share a table in the room,“This is a pleasant 20 ,”he said,“I never expected to see you again after all these years.”
