21、As workers return to the office, friends meet up and religious services move from online to in person, people are wondering whether they should shake hands or not.
When the COVID-19 pandemic first began, an event planning business in Kansas City began selling “I Shake Hands” stickers(标签). The words were meant to make social situations easier.
“We didn’t want the sticker to say ‘We Don’t Shake Hands’ because that is kind of off-putting(令人气恼的),” said John DeLeon, vice president of operations. DeLeon added that those who did not want to shake hands with others could simply choose not to wear a sticker.
The handshake has been around for centuries. A widely held belief is that it started as a way to show that a person was offering peace and not holding a hidden weapon. But hands have germs(细菌).
Dr. Anthony Fauci is America’s leading infectious disease expert. Last year, he warned, “I don’t think we should ever shake hands again, to be honest with you.”
Dr. Amesh Adalja, another infectious disease expert, does not agree. He thinks people are overthinking the question of whether to shake hands or not. The answer, he says, is simple.
“If you are worried about COVID-l9, the best way to make handshakes safe is to be fully vaccinated (接种疫苗),” Dr. Adalja said.
Diane Gottsman is a national etiquette expert. Etiquette means the rules that make up the correct way to behave in society. Gottsman does not think the handshake will go away because of the pandemic. But she said people should take things slowly. “Don’t be the first to extend your hand, even if you are comfortable,” Gottsman said.
Business Law Southwest advises businesses in New Mexico, Arizona and Texas. At the beginning of the pandemic, it offered to help create new workplace rules—such as a no-handshake policy. But there was not enough interest, said Kristy Donahue, a company spokeswoman. “At the end of the day,” Donahue said, “people long for human interaction and human touch.”
【1】What did John DeLeon think of “We Don’t Shake Hands” sticker?
A．It’s funny.
B．It’s important.
C．It’s acceptable.
D．It’s unnecessary.
【2】Who was against the practice of shaking hands?
A．John DeLeon.
B．Anthony Fauci.
C．Amesh Adalja.
D．Diane Gottsman.
【3】What do we learn about no-handshake policy?
A．It was widely adopted.
B．It was not well received.
C．It was supported by Kristy Donahue.
D．It was put forward by Diane Gottsman.
【4】What would be the best title for the text?
A．Shaking Hands—A Thing of the Past.
B．Shaking Hands—Old Habits Die Hard.
C．To Shake Hands or Not to Shake Hands?
D．Why Is It Difficult to Give up Handshaking?
22、Time is on your side
How frequently do you say “I don’t have time”? Quite often, I guess. Every time we say those words, they make us feel weak and out of control. You are in control of your hours and your life. 【1】
I know it’s not as easy as simply turning off the TV. But here are two steps that will help you take back control and get time on your side.
★【2】
Be honest: do you spend an hour or two visiting Weixin and QQ every day? Are you spending time with people that you don’t really like just to please them? Are there meetings you attend that you can politely refuse?
It’s time to get real about the hours that add up to a lot of dissatisfying nothing. Think how you can cancel daily activities that are not useful. 【3】
★Change your language.
Words matter. They have power. Saying “I don’t have time” is an excuse for not wanting to do something. Here are some good, empowering alternatives (选择):
“I choose not to start that project until next year.”
“【4】”
“I’d love to go out this weekend but have important work I need to do first.”
Get better at saying no. 【5】 Use little pockets of time (friend running late, car stuck in traffic, meeting ending 10 minutes early) to do some productive thinking. All these things can add up over time more than you believe!
A．Identify your blocks.
B．But you are likely wasting a lot of it!
C．I really don’t have enough time to do it.
D．Replace them with things that satisfy you.
E．Take no notice of all those unimportant messages on your phone.
F．I’d love to read that book — I’ll get to it after my homework is complete!
G．When you don’t have a plan for your life, someone else will plan it for you.
23、It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品杂货），saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity（人性）as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
【1】Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A. The man’s job was bike racing.
B. It was their only possession.
C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
D. They used it for work and daily life.
【2】We can infer from the text that ____________.
A. the couple worked 60 hours a week.
B. people were busy before Christmas
C. the stranger brought over the bike
D. life was hard for the young family.
【3】How did people get to know the couple’s problem?
A. From radio broadcasts. B. From a newspaper.
C. From TV news. D. From a stranger.
【4】What do the couple learn from their experience?
A. Strangers are usually of little help.
B. One should take care of their bike.
C. News reports make people famous.
D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.
24、While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can’t be avoided. 【1】
Try physical activity.
【2】 Running, walking, playing tennis, and working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try.
Make time for yourself.
Arrange time for both work and fun. Don’t forget, play can be just as important as your overall well-being as work. 【3】 Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.
Take care of yourself.
【4】If you easily get angry and can’t sleep well enough, or if you’re not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should go to see a doctor.
【5】
Stress can result form disorganization and a feeling that “ there’s so much to do, not enough time”. Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result, you may not achieve anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, than do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Set out to do the most important task first.
A．Make a list of things to do.
B．Do whatever you like and want to do.
C．You could smile to yourself in front of a mirror every day.
D．The following are suggestions for ways to deal with stress.
E．You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest.
F．You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun.
G．When you are nervous, angry or upset, try reducing the pressure through exercise or physical activity.
