In my math class, Mr. Black drew 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 us, “Can anyone tell me what this is?” Jack said, “The world?” Mr. Black said, “That’s close. This is your Comfort Zone (舒适区域). 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 danger. Can anyone tell me what happens when you step out of this circle?”

Mr. Black then drew an arrow (箭头) pointing from the man to the outside of the circle. He went on saying, “When you leave your Comfort Zone, you will face the world that you are not comfortable with. The result is that you will learn something that you do not know and gain (获得) more than what you have.” He then drew a bigger circle around the first circle, and added a few new things like more friends, etc, into it.

阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。

Some people seem to know how to start a conversation with anyone anywhere. If you’re not one of these people, don’t be sad. Here are some easy ways to help you make a conversation with someone new.

Say something about the surroundings (周围的事物).

If you’re at a party, for example, you could say, “I love this song”, or “The food is great. Have you tried the chicken?”

Ask an open-ended question.

The question requires (要求) more than just a yes or no answer. You can ask a question that begins with one of the 5W1H: who, where, when, what, why, or how. For example, “Who do you know here?” “Where do you usually go on Friday?” “How is the food?” Most people enjoy talking about themselves, so asking questions is a good way to start a conversation.

Give praise.

For example, “I really like your bag. Can I ask where you got it?” or “You look like you’ve done this before. Can you tell me where I have to sign in (签到)?”

Keep the conversations going with small talk.

Don’t say something annoying (令人讨厌的) and avoid big subjects like religion (宗教). Try some relaxing subjects. For example, you can talk about the weather or anything you have in common such as schools, movies and sports teams.

Be a good listener.

Listening is not the same as waiting for your turn to talk.. You can’t focus on (专注于) what someone’s saying if you’re thinking about what you’re going to say next. Focus on the speaker and show interest in what’s being said. Nod, smile at the person, and make sure you look friendly.

1.An open-ended question refers to the one beginning with ________.

2.Asking questions is a good way to start a conversation because most people ________.

3.Try some relaxing subjects rather than big subjects like ________.

4.To be a good listener means focusing on the speaker and ________.

5.The passage is mainly about ________.

My bedroom used to be a mess. There were tan many things. I had so many books I never read and CDS I didn’t listen to. My drawers (抽屉) were f1. with clothes I never wore. I was getting upset that I didn’t have any s2. in my bedroom. Then I read about minimalism (简约主义). Minimalism is a style of living where you only keep the most important things and you t3.away everything else. After a careful reading. I felt encouraged to solve my problem.

Minimalism suggests that you should only keep the essentials (必需品) for living. So I started clearing out a lot of things which I didn’t u4.. I collected bags of clothes to give to anyone who needed them. I sold some of my CDs and books online

Although I knew that I would never need these things again, I still found it very d5.to throw them away. My brain tried to stop me f6.letting them go. I said to myself “I might need that in the f7.!” or “Won't I be sad if I throw that away?” But the thing is, I know I couldn’t keep everything.

As clearing out for a month, I found it quite exciting to throw things away and create some space. H8., it’s not easy to be a minimalist. We are often told that it is better to have more things. I still own a lot of things which I don’t really n9.. In the future, I will be c10.about what I buy. And I will continue to make an effort to throw away what I don’t need.
