完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分；满分20分）
My name is Amy. I’m a 25-year-old graduate student who likes yoga, home-decorating shows and eating spoonfuls of peanut butter
1 from the jar. Oh yeah, and I’m an iPhone addict.
I wasn’t always an addict. In fact, for many years I told myself I didn’t want a
2 cellphone. They seemed like too much work, always beeping, ringing and
3 attention. I was
4 content with my simple antique (古董，此处指旧手机), and I didn’t expect to change my mind any time soon.
However, about a year ago, I found myself envious of all those proud iPhone owners, cradling their shiny new phones and
5 all their friends. I started listening secretly to conversations about “iPhone apps”, feeling like a
6 listening to a language I couldn’t speak.
Eventually I couldn’t
7 my iPhone instinct (本能) any longer, and I welcomed my new iPhone into my life.
To my surprise, I suddenly found myself with a whole new circle of friends. They

9 when I bragged about (吹嘘) all the things little Eloise (yes, I named her) could do.

14 when I left poor Eloise in the change room at the gym.
15 she beeped and needed my response?
Okay, so I was addicted to my iPhone.
I decided
16 had to be done. But, as I quickly realized, iPhones are like
17 and not easy to quit.
Then, while taking the bus to work one day, I was
18 forced to quit—at least
19 . When I reached into my purse to grab Eloise, (to refer to my e-mail for only the seventh time that morning), I found her
20 by fever. She was so hot that I dropped her immediately back into my bag. When I picked her up again, she was gone.
