10．In America，people change jobs ten times during their lives．They change their homes eleven times．Americans like change because they think it improves their lives．
In China，some people，of course，don't like change．They want life to be predictable （可預見的）．They want to do the same things every day and to see the same people every day．When something changes，it makes them feel uncomfortable，like a child who can't go to sleep unless （除非） all his toys are in their proper places．
But can't you see there are many changes in China？People are healthier and they are living longer．People have more money，more food and they are better educated （受教育）．
Without change our lives would be very boring．It would be like listening to the same song over and over again．Change is a big part of life and we all change in small ways every day--the young get stronger，the old get weaker； we meet new friends； we find new interests．Change is good for China and it will be good for you，too．

分析 本文先是講述了美國人喜歡改變，甚至一生中會換10次工作，搬11次家，但是他們很喜歡這樣．相對而言，中國人更傾向于循規(guī)蹈矩，不喜歡改變，但是作者通過一些小的細節(jié)告訴大家，改變是有益的，是好的．
解答 61．B細節(jié)理解題．根據文中第一段原句In America，people change jobs ten times during their lives．可以得知在美國，人們一生中會換10次工作．故選B．
62．D細節(jié)理解題．根據文中第二段原句When something changes，it makes them feel uncomfortable，like a child who can't go to sleep unless （除非） all his toys are in their proper places．可以得知，一部分中國人不喜歡改變是因為改變會使他們感覺不舒服，就像小孩子因為玩具沒有歸位就不睡覺．故選D．
63．D分析判斷題．根據文中第一段原句In America，people change jobs ten times during their lives．They change their homes eleven times．可以得知，美國人一生中會搬家11次，而不是中國人．故D的描述是錯誤的．
64．A詞匯理解題．根據句意Americans like change because they think it improves their lives．可以理解出，美國人搬家或換工作很頻繁，但是他們卻很喜歡這樣做，原因肯定是能夠改善他們的生活，故選A，
65．A總結歸納題．本文通過美國人和國人的對比，以及中國人生活中的小小的改變都在闡述改變是好的概念．故選A．
點評 閱讀理解題，需要先讀題，理解清楚題目意思，接著帶著問題去文章中尋找、推斷答案．把握好細節(jié)，注意推敲才能保證正確率．
