Comfort Zone

I would never forget what I learned from the day when I left my junior high school. On the last day our teacher told us something 1 that I would like to share with you.

He began by drawing a man standing in the middle of a circle. To make it more interesting, he drew things like a house, a car and a few friends inside the circle.

He asked, "Can anyone tell me what this is?" In a long silence, one student decided to 2 his idea," The world?" The teacher said, "That's close. This is your Comfort Zone. Inside your circle you have all the things that are important to you. Your home, your family, your friends and your job. People feel that inside this circle they are safe from any 3 ."

"Can anyone tell me what happens when you step out of this circle?" A strong silence came over the room. The same student replied," You are afraid." Another student said, "You may make mistakes." The silence continued and our teacher smiled and asked," When you make mistakes, what can the result be?" The first student said," You 4 something."

"Exactly, you are learning." Our teacher turned to the blackboard and drew an arrow（箭头）

5 from the man to the outside of the circle. He went on saying," When you leave your Comfort Zone, you put yourself out there, in a

6 that you are not comfortable with, The result is that you learn something that you did not know and you enlarge your knowledge to become a better person." He turned again to the blackboard and drew a bigger circle around the original （原来的）circle, and

7 a few new things like more friends, a big house, etc.

A lesson from this story is that if you stay inside your Comfort Zone you will never be able to open your eyes to the outside world and learn, When you step out of your Comfort Zone, you will 8 make your circle bigger to challenge your mind and grow to be stronger, and all in all be a better person.

（15）连词辨析。句意：我们想要的不是我所需要的。根据句子结构need后需要宾语，代词可以作宾语，what什么；when何时；where何处；why为什么，故选A。

【点评】此题考查完形填空。做完形填空时，要始终抓住文章本身，联系“双语境”来判断，既大语境——全文中心和基调，小语境——空格前后句子所构成的语境；再根据前有伏笔后有呼应的思路来做题。绝对矛盾法是从选项着手分析，若四个选项中有两个选项是绝对矛盾和对立，那么正确选项大多在这两个对立项之间产生。在完形填空题中，同义词或同义短语的位置多半比较靠近，很容易找到，所以同义复现法是很好的解题技巧。注意句子和句子之间的衔接，可应用不同的连接词连接相同的两个句子，观察其产生的意义有何不同。在平时的阅读中也可以指导学生善于发现句子和句子或段落和段落之间的连接词，并适时对连接词进行总结和归类。

11．阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。
