【解析】

1.下文提示，他是在找自己了旅馆。

2.on my phone 固定搭配，在手机上搜索。

3.此处说的是他需要去的地方确切的显示了出来，很有把握的样子，为下文埋下伏笔。

4.根据本句，他说已经去过这个地方，没有找到这条街和宾馆，而现在我由这样说，那么他只能刚到迷惑了。

5.因为他迷惑，所以作者又为他确认了一次。Confirm 确认。

6.take off表示“离开”，他们握手告别。

7.part ways表示“分道走”固定短语。

8.something wrong，作者感受到有什么不对。

9.作者又一次搜索了改地址，“意识到”那位高个男士在找一个正确的地方，但是在另一个城市。

10.已经过去几分钟了，正常情况下，他们该已经离开很远了，所以找到那位高个男士的几率该很小了，因此该用“不幸的是”。

11.参考上一题。Slim表示“微小的”

12.承接上文，为了帮助别人，尽管几率很小，作者还是决定尝试一下。

13.当时作者几乎没怎么注意那位陌生男士的车是怎么样子，所以又想放弃。

14.时间状语从句，when表示“在这时”。

15.at a loss 困惑不解，不知所措

16.pull in 进站，这里指的是进入“停车场”。

17.他是在问，你是如何找到我的。故选How。

18.figure out 想出。这里指的是我现在知道你走错城市了。

19.此情此景只能是微笑了。

20.挥手再见。
