36. A。由下文作者回忆如何成瘾，如何对他生活的影响以及他是采取什么措施克服，这讲的都是作者如何面对解决这个问题的。
37. B。从后面的from the moment I woke up to the time I went sleep中的moment可推知他一直都想打电话，所以选B。
38. C。由第四段的If I couldn’t make a call, I spent the whole time waiting for the phone to ring可反推出该空填wait。
39. C。由下句的转折词though及其后的内容（可是渐渐地越来越糟糕了）可反推出刚开始一天几个电话并且通话时间很短，似乎还挺正常，所以用fine。
40. B。situation指“形势，局面”；condition指人的身心或物品所处于的具体状态，也可表示“条件”；result指最终形成的结果，既然是最终的结果，就无法再发生变化；effect指某物最后产生的“效果”，这里指的是情形越来越糟糕。
41. A。由空后的finally, addiction可知空里应该填上瘾前的表现，而只有总是去做去想才叫上瘾，选项中frequent是频繁的意思，符合上下文的意思。
42. D。由During the day I would disappear for ___call可知本段叙述的是打电话上瘾影响了他的工作，要不然他不用偷偷摸摸地去打电话。
43. A。由上题可知这些电话是他在工作时间打的，不可能长时间地打电话；既然他是打电话上瘾者，那么他打电话就是因为他想打，不打心里难受，没有什么特别的理由，所以其他三项不能选。
44. D。他打电话上了瘾，工作时间打不成电话，就一直盼着别人来电话，等不来电话，按长理推断，上了瘾的人，不能做想做的事会越来越着急，烦躁不安（anxious）。
45. B。这里他是在做内心的自我斗争，一边想继续打电话一边告诫自己：再打一个电话就不打了，自己和自己说，故用telling。
46. A。leave a message是打电话者的常用语，意思是“留言”；take a message是接电话的人的常用语，意思也是“留言”，但动作发出者不同。
47. C。由see me through the day可知，他想熬过这一天，根据他是个打电话上瘾的人要想熬过去，就像吸鸦片上瘾的人需要足够的鸦片一样，他必须有足够的电话。
48. D。saying的意思是格言、俗语；demands的意思是要求、需求，wish的意思是愿望、希望；words的意思是话，言语，而下一句就是他说的话，所以选D。
49. B。由下文作者居然用电话打老板这件事可知，不让他用电话时他的疯狂行为。
50. D。从下一句他用电话打他的老板可反推知这里讲的是他的同事阻止他打电话，stop somebody(from)doing是固定短语，意思是“阻止某人做某事”。
51. A。phone box指的是投币电话接受硬币的盒子。由phone box的定语从句知他的最后一个硬币被phone box吞了，他不能接着打电话，才导致他破坏盒子；他是打电话上瘾者，不是小偷，所以不可能是偷盒子或者倒空盒子，排除C、D项。
52. C。既然是被警察捉住，那么他就是在警察的强制命令下去看心理医生，去改变或克服他的不正常行为，。
53. B。这一段紧接上文谈他是如何克服自己的电话瘾的，由此推知在三个星期内他的家里是没有电话机的。
54. D。since是自从……的意思，这句话的意思是自从我上次打投币电话已经有好几天了。
55. A。电视节目中确实经常出现人们打电话的场景，这里没有和电视里打电话的人数形成对比的对象，所以不能用more。
