20.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.
(36)DGirls 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.(37)E Peple 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 that's true but it's a pity if we always stick to the same people,the same group.The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒適區(qū))is that we just recycle the same opinions,the same tastes and the same ideas.(38)G.
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 (無(wú)知),which too often leads to prejudice (偏見(jiàn)) and even fear?If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions,(39)B.
(40)F.Go and sit next to someone different.And don't just sit there in silence.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.

A.People prefer sitting by someone who is open-minded.
B.Be the cat among the pigeons.
C.Discover differences among yourselves.
D.Perhaps unsurprisingly,we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves.
E.We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us
F.Move out of your comfort zone.
G.We lose the chance to learn something new,find out about interesting things,hear funny stories and discover difference.

分析 文章主要內(nèi)容為指出了我們經(jīng)常和像我們的人坐在一起的這種不良現(xiàn)象,目的是鼓勵(lì)大家和不像自己的人坐在一起,要和不同的人相處,溝通,去發(fā)現(xiàn)生活中更多的樂(lè)趣.

解答 DEGBF
36.D 根據(jù)空后一句Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys.Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near.可知人們喜歡和自己年紀(jì)差不多的人坐在一起,選項(xiàng)D符合此意
37.E 根據(jù)空后一句 Peple with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses.People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair.可知我們甚至選擇坐在和我們相似的人旁邊,選項(xiàng)E符合此意
38.G 根據(jù)句前一句The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒適區(qū))is that we just recycle the same opinions,the same tastes and the same ideas,可知我們會(huì)有失去學(xué)習(xí)新東西的機(jī)會(huì),選項(xiàng)G符合此意
39.B 根據(jù)句前一句If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions可知如果你想生活在一個(gè)對(duì)于變化和不同意見(jiàn)及新事物開(kāi)明的社會(huì),這無(wú)異于引狼入室,B選項(xiàng)符合文意
40.F 根據(jù)空后一句Go and sit next to someone different.可知,去到不同的人身邊去坐坐,可知空處應(yīng)該填"走出你的舒適區(qū)",F(xiàn)符合此意

點(diǎn)評(píng) 七選五閱讀是完成性閱讀,和完形填空很類(lèi)似,不同的是一個(gè)選詞,一個(gè)選句子.解題時(shí),要注意上下文語(yǔ)境,充分考慮信息詞(選項(xiàng)中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的詞),選出最符合語(yǔ)境的句子.

8.Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or,easily,one of the worst.Whether you've decided to room with a friend or a total stranger,the rules are still the same.If you want to have a good relationship with your roommate,it all starts with you.
   Follow the four tips to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relationships sour:
   You've heard it before:Communication is key.If something happens,sit down with your roommate and have a face-to-face conversation.I've seen roommate relationships fall apart because something happens and,instead of talking to each other,the two start complaining about their roommates behind their backs.This method creates nothing but awkward situations and general unhappiness.
   Some roommates become the best of friends,and some don't.Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate to reach this level,especially when you first meet.Remember,you'v e trying to make a new friend,not scare your roommate away.And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend,don't worry about it.My first-year roommate and I didn't end up becoming best friends,but we are friends---and I couldn't have been happier with my roommate situation.
  Everyone hates dirty places.If you make a mess,don't leave it for someone else to clean up.This should go without saying.Don't be a slob (懶漢).Make sure you do your fair share of dormitory chores,such as taking out the trash and recycling,and cleaning the washroom.Or,at last,just don't bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage and you should be all right.Most people I've encountered(遭遇)in college are messy.You don't have all the time in the world to clean your room and keep it organized.But being considerate with where you put your stuff will help you avoid conflict.
   If you want to lose a friend,borrow everything without asking.If you want to keep the relationship going,show you roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first.Even if you both agree to share everything,you should still ask whenever you want to reach for snacks,clothes,supplies and anything else that you don't own.An d upon moving into the dorm,you need to make clear which items you both feel comfortable sharing.
   If you want a good roommate,you have to be a good roommate,Yes,there are exceptions.Sometimes being a good person and reaching out to your roommate simply isn't enough.Sometimes you get stuck with someone who has tons of negative energy or just isn't happy and doesn't want any sort of relationship.Whatever the case may be,the name of the game is always the same:respect.If you can't give it,you definitely don't deserve to get it.
Four (66)Tips/Suggestions/Waysto Be a Great Roommate
Dormitory life is a usually one of the most cherished parts of one's time at college.Get ready to avoid the common mistakes.
Have a friendly conversationInstead of burying your feelings or  (67)complainingabout each other,you'd better communicate with your roommate frankly to get along well with each other.
Don't expect the roommates to be your best friends.Sharing the same dorm doesn't necessarily mean you have to be best friends for each other,but it's better to make a friend than an enemy to experience college (68)happily/positively/smoothly
Clean up after yourself.Or,at least,keep your mess on your side.It is believed that in a shared space,all roommates should help in keeping the room tidy instead of putting the burden on just one while the others do whatever they want.
Never take anything( 69)withoutasking.To keep belongings safe and avoid fighting late,let each other know in a polite way if you have to share the other's items.This rule applies to any situation.
If your work fails to win you a good roommate and you get stuck with someone who doesn't appreciate your kindness,it is not the end of the world.No matter what happens,showing (70)respectalways make sense.
