It was my birthday last Thursday. I decided to 36 by inviting a few friends out to supper. I chose a restaurant in a 37 part of town. It is one of my favorite restaurants because the food is good and the waiters are friendly. It is 38 ever crowded, because not many people know about it, so it is not usually 39 to book(预定) a table. In any case, Thursday is not a busy evening 40 . When we entered the restaurant, we were surprised to find it completely 41 . I looked around but no 42 was free. One of the waiters recognized me. He came across and explained the situation. “A party of tourists(旅游团) came in about half an hour ago,” he said. “It was like an invasion (侵略). 43 the place was full! We can hardly manage (对付，应付).” The waiter then pointed to a table in the corner. “The people there are about to 44 ,” he said. “Just hold on and you’ll 45 a place there.” He was right. Fifteen minutes later, the people 46 the corner table paid their 47 , got up and left. I led my friends across and we all sat down. 48 , our table was almost out of sight. We tried to call the attention of the waiter who sent us there, 49 he, like all the other waiters, was 50 with the party of tourists. They ordered lots of food. At last, an hour later, the tourists were finishing their meal and looking very 51 with life. The waiter, now very tired, appeared at our table. I advised my friends about the best dishes and finally the waiter went off with our 52 . A few moments later he returned to our table. We could tell from his face that he had 53 news for us. 54 a little sorry he told us that there was no meat or fish. “All we can 55 you,” he said, “is an omelet (煎蛋卷) !” 小题1: A．remember B．congratulate C．memorize D．celebrate 小题2: A．calm B．quiet C．busy D．faraway 小题3: A．hardly B．often C．hard D．always 小题4: A．important B．possible C．necessary D．certain 小题5: A．as usual B．in fact C．as before D．in all 小题6: A．full B．empty C．free D．quiet 小题7: A．person B．table C．waiter D．friend 小题8: A．Happily B．Luckily C．Suddenly D．Hopefully 小题9: A．start B．end C．leave D．pay 小题10: A．find B．take C．wait D．see 小题11: A．by B．at C．beside D．near 小题12: A．money B．drink C．food D．bill 小题13: A．Luckily B．Normally C．Unluckily D．Angrily 小题14: A．but B．so C．yet D．and 小题15: A．easy B．busy C．strict D．satisfied 小题16: A．excited B．tired C．disappointed D．pleased 小题17: A．order B．foods C．dishes D．money 小题18: A．good B．bad C．valuable D．pleasant 小题19: A．Remaining B．Seeing C．Looking D．Finding 小题20: A．find B．sell C．offer D．bring
