    London’s Chinese community(社区) dates back to the 18th century, when a small number of Chinese sailors moved to the city to work in Limhouse, east London. As time went on, other Chinese came to this area and Limhouse began to be known as “Chinatown”. However, London’s Chinese community remained every small for many years: at the start of the 20th century, there were just 545 Chinese people in Britain.
    After the Second World War, many farmers in Hong Kong lost their jobs and came to London. As Limhouse had been almost destroyed during the war, they settled (定居) in a different area—a port of central London near Leicester Square. This area is now what Londoners call Chinatown.
    At first, the new immigrants found it difficult to get jobs. In the 1950s, however, a small Chinese restaurant opened in London. Many British people visited it and said that Chinese food was wonderful! Suddenly, Chinese restaurants and take-ways started opening in every part of the city. Instead of too little work, the new Chinese immigrants now found that they had too much! They worked as cooks, managers or waiters. Most of them enjoyed their lives and arranged their friends and relatives to join them from overseas.
    As time went by, London’s Chinese community became more and more successful. The sons and daughters of the original restaurant workers studied and worked very hard. And most went on to get highly paid jobs. Many Chinese families left Chinatown and moved to more expensive outskirts. Chinatown, however, is still as lively as ever.
    小题1:When did the first Chinese immigrants come to London?
    A. In the 1950s.
    B. B. More than 200 years ago.
    C. C. At the start of the 20 century.
    小题2:Why did many Chinese immigrants come to London in the 1950s?
    A. Because it was easy for them to get jobs there.
    B. Because many British people enjoyed Chinese food.
    C. Because their children could study there and get highly paid jobs.
    小题3:In the 1950s, Chinese immigrants came to London and worked as _______.
    A. sailors
    B. sailors and farmers
    C. restaurant workers
    小题4:Where is London’s Chinatown now?
    A. In the east of London.
    B. In Limhouse.
    C. Not far from Leicester square.
    小题5:According to this passage, if people live in the outskirts of a city, they live ______.
    A. in the center of the city
    B. in the outer areas of the city
    C.in the busiest part of the city.

    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.
    Perhaps unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves. Girls 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. We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us. People 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 (舒适区)is that we just recycle the same opinions, the same tastes and the same ideas. We lose the chance to learn something new, find out about interesting things, hear funny stories and discover difference.?
    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 (无知),which too often leads to prejudice (偏见) and even fear? If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions, be the cat among the pigeons.
    Move out of your comfort zone. 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.
    小题1:From the passage, we know that people prefer sitting by someone who
    A．is like themselves
    B．has a sense of humor?
    C．is open-minded
    D．lives an exciting life
    小题2:People like staying in their comfort zone because they may
    A． remain comfortable and special
    B． be accepted easily and feel safe
    C． find out more interesting things
    D．discover differences among themselves
    小题3:What is the purpose of the passage?
    A．To tell us just to be ourselves in social life.
    B．To introduce ways to learn about the world.
    C．To explain how people communicate with others.
    D．To encourage us to meet people of different kinds.
