四、完形填空。〔人与社会——社会服务与人际沟通〕
Last month, I travelled abroad with two friends. We visited local places of interest and enjoyed ourselves. 1, on the last day of the trip, my two friends couldn't leave the 2, because one had to have a video conference(视频会议) with his co-workers, and the other caught a bad cold and could only stay in bed. They didn't want me to change the plan 3 them. So I visited the Whitsunday Islands alone.
My journey began in the afternoon. 4 else on the boat was with a group of friends. Only I wasn't. This made me feel a little 5. I then took out my 6 and decided to take some photos.
Seeing a green island, I walked to the back of the 7 to get a photo. But 8 the boat was shaking, I needed something to lean(倚靠) on. Then I found a large steel box, so I put my 9 on it. It was so 10! I quickly took my arms away from it. Then I found out that the box had been heated up(加热) to cook.
No one 11 me at first. Then my arms started to turn purple and a few people came to offer 12. One young lady gave me her special cream for burns. We 13 for a while, and I found that she was from Buckenham too. What a coincidence(巧合)! I felt 14 soon. I was not sure whether it was because of the cream or the fact that I had a new friend.
I had great fun with the people on the boat that day and it is an unforgettable 15 for me.
