高考题型提能练(二十一)　Unit 21 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2016·河南省适应性测试)Over the years, the recommendations of my friend Philip have led me to work with three of my favorite clients (客户). I am certain that my relationships with these three clients have helped me meet many other wonderful people. Needless to say, I owe Philip a lot. Without him, these relationships wouldnt have happened. Philip is bright, friendly, and inspiring. Sometimes his ideas pay off in a huge way. He is very successful. But this brilliant, creative, friendly man has a bit of difficulty when it comes to small commitments. These little behaviors are annoying things — last-minute cancellations, missed phone calls, and the like. While they do trouble my life a little bit, its nothing really major that would make me back out of the relationship. Philip always apologizes for these minor defects. I always accept his apology. When I take all the good things and weigh them against the times hes let me down, he is so far ahead that he gets a “lifetime pass”. And, I tell him so. When I do, he feels good and I feel better for forgiving him. To this day, we are friends. I am his friend because when I consider someones actions, I ask myself, “Am I better off or worse off because of having this person in my life？” With Philip, the answer has always been, and will always be, in his favor. Philip has been such a good friend and having him in my life has been such a good thing that I am grateful. This will always override (忽略) any of his “negative” behaviors. Thats a lifetime pass. How many people do you have in your life to whom you have given a lifetime pass? Is the number high or low in your opinion? Most people want a higher number. 1.Why does the writer owe Philip a lot? A.Because Philip has never troubled him as a good friend. B.Because Philip has solved many of his annoying problems. C.Because Philip has helped him meet many wonderful people. D.Because Philip has offered him many good ideas that work well. 2.Which of the follow
