Or in a waiting room full of strangers? Or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts.Perhaps unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves. Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys. Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near. But it goes further than this. We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us. People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses. People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair.We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar attitude and we are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves or even, we think we may be safer with people who look like us. Sometimes thats true but its a pity if we always stick to the same people, the same group. The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒适区)is that we just recycle the same opinions, the same tastes and the same ideas. We lose the chance to learn something new, find out about interesting things, hear funny stories and discover difference.When we always stick to the same people, how can we ever break down the barriers which prevent us from getting to know people with different ideas? And how can we avoid the ignorance (无知),which too often leads to prejudice (偏见) and even fear? If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions, be the cat among the pigeons.Move out of your comfort zone. Go and sit next to someone different. And dont just sit there in silence. Say hello. Ask a question. Start a conversation. Thats how we make friends. Thats how we learn about people. Thats how we open our minds to new ideas. Thats how we live an exciting life.66. From the passage, we know that people prefer sitting by someone who A. is like themselves B. has a sense of humorC. is open-minded D. lives an exciting life67. People like staying in their comfort zone because they may A.remain comfortable and special B.be accepted easily and feel safe C.find out more interesting things D. discover differences among themselves68. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To tell us just to be ourselves in social life. B. To introduce ways to learn about the world.C. To explain how people communicate with others. D. To encourage us to meet people of different kinds.Passage 2Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk , laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We dont always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends dont get along well, which doesnt mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.Theres more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those dont have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.56. The first paragraph tells us _. A. we always need friends around us B. none needs friends C. making friends is the need in peoples life D. we need to be alone57. Which of the following is what the writer doesnt say in the passage? A. People are happy when their friends leave them. B. People may never see their friends after their friends move away. C.

A. that people are all friends B. that people need friends C. how to get to know friends D. how to name a placePassage 3Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members dont know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for some ideas.It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in childrens growing up, because friends can discuss something. These things are difficult to tell their family members.However, parents often try to choose their childrens friends for them.

But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished(惊讶). Gently shaking his head，shrugging（耸）his shoulders, he said，“You dont say!” “You dont say!” I was puzzled（疑惑不解）. I thought , perhaps this is not an appropriate（适当的）topic. “Well, Id better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted(打断) again by his words: “You dont say!” I couldnt help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didnt request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didnt you sayyou dont say？” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain “ You dont say actually means really! It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you dont pay attention to English idioms.” I realized I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.69A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because_.A.
