19.Do you hear that birds of a feather flock together? It certainly appears that they do.We are likely to hang around with individuals who are similar to ourselves.Poor people like to surround themselves with other poor people,and rich people with other rich people.Intelligent people associate with like-minded people,and artists typically seek out other artists.It appears that we all have comfort zones we attempt to stay within.Very stressed and poor people don't feel comfortable associating with rich people.We owe it to each other to be successful because success breeds more success.And if we are not feeling successful,looking at who we have as friends and associates can tell us and others a lot about ourselves and why.The longer we associate with a group of individuals,the more our thinking processes become like theirs.
A few years ago,a doctor friend of mine began associating with a new group of people.At the time,he had a successful practice and a positive and grateful attitude to life.'However,within the first six months of his association with these individuals,his attitude and goals changed,he was angry at'how things were and was dissatisfied with those who'd become his opposition.He became very stubborn,As a result,his practice dropped in quality of service.His facial expressions often showed anger and stress.
After about two years of association with this group,he learned some valuable lessons.He realized that always focusing on problems or being dissatisfied with others doesn't lead to a rewarding life,nor does it solve as many problems as/t creates.He decided that he'd rather get back into serving his patients.
This doctor put his heart and soul into his practice,and his life changed again.He began to attract people who focused on solutions instead of problems.His success was now more obvious than his stress-his achievement more obvious than his frustration.
Whom we hang out with does make a difference.The old saying"If you want to soar(翱翔) with the eagles,don't flock with the turkeys."has a point

分析 物以类聚,人以群分.最后人们很可能会变得和他们交往的人一样.
解答 DABD
32.D 考查句意猜测.根据"Poor people like to surround themselves with other poor people,and rich people with other rich people"可知,物以类聚,人以群分.所以该句的意思是"同一类人会聚在一起".故选D.
33.A 考查推理判断.根据"It appears that we all have comfort zones we attempt to stay within.Very stressed and poor people don't feel comfortable associating with rich people"可知,我们都有自己的舒适区,穷人和富人在一起就会感到有压力,同理病人和医生在一起,就会感到紧张.故选A.
34.B 考查推理判断.根据最后一段内容可知,文章的最后一段中使用的俗语"If you want to soar(翱翔) with the eagles,don't flock with the turkeys",使他的文章更具说服力.故选B.
35.D 考查细节理解.根据文章可知,作者用医生的例子来证明人们很可能会变得和他们交往的人一样.故选D.
点评 阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
