【解析】

試題解析：很多時候人們疲憊了就會打瞌睡，當睡意來襲時不論身在何處都會很快入睡。例如乘車時、聽講座時，甚至開車時，人們都會疲憊而睡著。

1. 從“on their way home”得出是下班之后在回家的路上。

2. 考查代詞。一位男的正在讀報紙，幾秒以后好像在吃報紙一樣，這里為了避免重復，用代詞指代報紙。

3. 這里指坐著的陌生人，表示一種狀態(tài)。

4. 考查連接詞�！皌he lecture hall”where后面的一句話作為定語從句修飾hall,是修飾地點的定語。

5. “a student starts snoring so loudly that the professor has to ask _ student to shake the sleeper awake.”一位同學睡著，肯定是另一位同學叫醒他。

6. 考查冠詞。 “the weight of”……的重量，固定搭配。

7. The ___ (bad) time to fall asleep is when driving最糟糕的時間就是在開車時睡覺。

8. 根據(jù)下一句提到他們就不會受很嚴重的傷，就可以推出如果、假如很幸運的話就不會受傷，所以用條件狀語從句If。

9. 副詞修飾形容詞。

10. raining. 考查動詞。 她在四英尺的水中醒來還認為一直在下雨。表示動作、狀態(tài)的持續(xù)性。

考點:考查語法填空。
