问题   Hello, my name is Richard and I am an ego surfer. The habit began
about five years ago, and now I need help. Like most journalists, I can’t
deny that one of my private joys are seeing my byline in print.  Now the【S1】________
Internet is allowing me to feed this vanity to ever greater extent, and the【S2】________
occasional sneaky web search has grown into a full-blown obsession for【S3】________
how high up Google’s ranking my articles appear where I put my name【S4】________
into the search box.  When I lastly looked, my best effort was a rather【S5】________
humiliating 47th place. You know you have a problem how you find【S6】________
yourself competing for ranking with a retired basketball player from the
1970s.
  Not that I’m lonely for suffering from a dysfunctional techno-habit.【S7】________
New technologies have revealed a whole raft of hitherto unsuspected
personality problems; think crackberry, power-pointlessness or
cheesepodding. Most of us are familiar in sending an e-mail to a【S8】________
colleague sitting a couple of feet away instead talking to them. Some go【S9】________
onto the web to snoop on old friends, colleagues or even the first dates.【S10】________
More of us than ever reveal highly personal information on blogs or My
Space entries. A few will even use Internet anonymity to fool others into
believing they are someone else altogether. So are these web syndromes
and technological tics new versions of old afflictions, or are we
developing fresh mind bugs?
【S4】
选项
答案where—when
解析 连词误用。本句的意思是“如今互联网使我的虚荣心得到更大程度的满足，以前只是偶尔偷偷地上网搜索一下自己的排名，现在发展成热衷于在搜索栏上输入自己的名字，看自己的文章在谷歌上的排名有多高。”I put my name into the search box是状语从句，表示“当……的时候”，而不是表示“在……地方”，因此将where改为when。
