问题   We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever we’ve become used to suddenly disappears. 【C1】________, for example, the neatly-dressed woman I【C2】________to see—or to look at—on my way to work each morning.
  For three years,  no matter【C3】________the weather was like,  she was always waiting at the bus stop around 8: 00 a. m. On【C4】________days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. Summertime【C5】________out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses.
  【C6】________, she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I【C7】________ all this only after she was seen no more. It was then that I realized how【C8】________I expected to see her each morning. You might say I【C9】________her.
  "Did she have an accident? Something【C10】________?" I thought to myself about her【C11】________Now that she was gone, I felt I had     【C12】________her. I began to realize that part of our【C13】________life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar【C14】________:the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who【C15】________walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library. Such people are【C16】________markers in our lives. They add weight to our【C17】________of places and belongings.
  Think about it. 【C18】________, while walking to work, we mark where we are by【C19】________a certain building,  why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though【C20】________, person?
【C2】

选项 A、happened
B、wanted
C、used
D、tried

答案C

解析 happen to do碰巧做某事;want to do想要做某事;used to do过去常常做某事;try to do尽力做某事。由“…to see—or to look at—on my way to work each morning”可知,作者以前每天早上都能见到她。used to do表示过去常常做某事,暗示现在已经不做了,故选C。
