Have you ever wondered what goes through your mind when you choose where to sit in a new classroom?Or in a waiting room full of strangers? Or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts.Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys. Adults sit together and young people choose another youngperson to sit near. But it goes further than this. We even choose to sit near someone who looks likeus. People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses. People with long hairsit closer to other people with long hair.We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar experiences andwe 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 that's true but it's a pity if we always stay with the same people, the samegroup. The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒适区) is that we just recycle the same o pinions, the same tastes and the same ideas. We l ose the chance to learn something new, find out interesting things, hear funny stories and discover differences.When we always stay with the same people, how can we break down the barriers which prevent us fromgetting to know people with different ideas? And how can we avoid the ignorance (无知) ? If you wantto live in a society that opens to changes , new things and different opinions ,be the cat among thepigeons(鸽子).Move out of your comfort zone. Go and sit next to someone different. And don't just sit there insilence. Say hello. Ask a question. Start a conversation. That's how we make friends. That's how we learn about people. That's how we open our minds to new ideas. That's how we live an exciting life.（1） From the passage ,we know that people prefer sitting by someone who .A . is like themselvesB . has a sense of humorC . is open - mindedD . lives an exciting life（2） People like staying in their comfort zone because they may .A . remain comfortable and specialB . find out more interesting thingsC . be accepted easily and feel safeD . discover differences among themselves（3） The sentence "Unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves." should be put at the beginning of .A . Paragraph 1B . Paragraph 2C . Paragraph 3D . Paragraph 4（4） What does the underlined word "barriers" mean in Paragraph 4 ?A . 联系B . 隔阂C . 纽带D . 熟悉（5） What is the purpose of the passage?A . To tell us not to talk with strangers.B . To introduce ways to learn about the world.C . To explain how people communicate with foreigners.D . To encourage us to get along with different people.2. （6分）(2019·广州模拟) 阅读理解Gary and Gavin were twin brothers who worked in a store owned by their father.

2020-2021年阅读理解（人生百味）练习题(含答案)（word）1一、九年级中考英语阅读理解（人生百味）（含答案详细解析）1．阅读理解The following are some tips for becoming a successful businessman by Michael Bloomberg. They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor（市长）, and so on.Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure.In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession（败选）speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it.In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get.Whatever you choose to do, even if it's not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances. Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful as an open, inquiring mind（探究精神）. Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student.Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others.My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater （母校） . And while the checks（支票）may be bigger today, they come with the same spirit.You don't have to be wealthy to give back. You can give back by giving your time and talents. （1）In this passage, Michael Bloomberg is the name of a .A. newspaperB. placeC. companyD. person（2）What did the writer do at the age of 59?A. Lost his job.B. Ran for mayor.C. Built a company.D. Became a teacher.（3）From the passage, we can infer that the writer .A. is a young mayorB. seldom cares about othersC. is lucky all the timeD. is a hard-working man（4）Which of the following isn't mentioned in the tips?A. Failure is the mother of success.B. It's never too old to learn.C. Money is everything.D. Luck comes from hard work.（5）In which of the following columns（栏目）can you find the article?A. Family LifeB. Interesting StoriesC. Experience SharingD. Adventures【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）D（4）C（5）C【解析】【分析】文章大意：短文介绍了成功的商人迈克尔·布隆伯格获取成功的一些秘诀。

2020-2021年阅读理解（人生百味）汇编（word）一、九年级中考英语阅读理解（人生百味）（含答案详细解析）1．阅读理解I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I thought that the act of writing is the coolest thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, my mother kept different things for my sister and my brother.“ But the desk，” She said, “it's for Helen.”Although I knew she loved me and she only showed it in action, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. But they never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional （易动感情的）”，but she lived “on the surface”．I had my own family later. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she forgave me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. It didn't come.My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I wasn't even sure if the letter had got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I never heard from her!Now the present of her desk told, as she'd never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose.

An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy （肌肉萎缩症）.When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming（克服）difficulties and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Clearly, he knew what he was talking about. He didn't mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming difficulties than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You won that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew's parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don't have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that.
