【解析】

試題分析：題目主要考查學(xué)生對名詞、介詞、連詞、固定短語、固定句型、過去分詞、形容詞最高級、不定式等基礎(chǔ)知識的掌握情況。

1. design of each restaurant每家飯店的設(shè)計風格，the+名詞+of，意為“......的......”，故填the。

2.and then used meal checks (track)研究人員然后用菜單來追蹤顧客所點的飯菜和他們所坐位置的關(guān)系，這里表示目的，故填to track。

3.ate the fewest salads”可知，這里說的是坐在離前門最遠的顧客，故填farthest/furthest。

4.The results were telling”可知用一般過去時，故填were。

5.seated。

6.Those (seat) at a dark table”和“diners sitting at high-top bar tables”的兩種場合的顧客的點菜情況，while意為“然而”，表示對比；這里也可看作是由and連接的兩個分句，故填while/and。

7. is+形容詞+to do sth做某事怎么樣，it是形式主語，不定式是真正的主語，故填it。

8.passers-by。

9. aware of sth知道，了解，故填of。

10.eating。
