二、阅读理解
When two people meet, there are a lot of ways of greeting. The ways of greeting are not always the same in different countries.
In America, two people usually greet each other with a handshake. It is a way to show respect to the other person. Athletes from opposite teams shake hands before a game for the same reason. However, most Americans don’t shake hands when they meet people they have already known well. When American friends met each other, they might only wave (挥手), or maybe just nod their heads.
In New Zealand, there is a special way of greeting called “Hongi”. In the greeting, two people press their noses and foreheads (前额) together and close their eyes. This is an old tradition that comes from the Maori, who were the first people to live in New Zealand. Even today, many New Zealanders still press their foreheads when they meet.
Kissing is sometimes used as a way to greet someone. In some countries, important people used to wear special rings. It was the custom for visitors to kiss these rings when they came for a meeting. In France, when people met, they sometimes kiss each other on the face.
In Japan, people bow to each other every time they meet. Even family members bow to each other. How low to bow depends on how respected the other person is.
Today, new ways of greeting are created all the time. People can do this with a quick “hi”, a handshake, or even a simple smile. The important thing is that the people they are greeting understand them.
21．The underlined part “the same reason” refers to ________.

There is a big change in Emma’s classroom. The desks are no longer in rows, but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. Let us listen to what students and teachers think of it.
Emma: I was so excited about it for the first two days that I couldn’t listen to the teachers carefully. But soon my classmates and I got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). Now our class is quieter. What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.
David: I like it, too. Group members first discuss, and then show to the whole class. It encourages us greatly.
Linda, an English teacher: This was part of a reform (改革) at our school. The school made this reform because we want to offer students easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. Our school hopes to improve students’ abilities to study by themselves and work in groups.
Steven, the school master: The reform has demanded (要求) more from teachers. Now they have only15 minutes to give a lesson that would have been taught in 40 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively (有效地). The reform demands more, but I’m sure it is helpful.

三、任务型阅读
As is well known, saying “no” is not easy at all. But sometimes we have to learn to say “no”. To learn to say “no”, we have to first understand what’s stopping us about it. There are some common reasons why people find it hard to say “no”.
You want to help others. You are a kind soul (灵魂) at heart. You don’t want to turn the person away and you want to help when possible, even if it may take up your time.
Afraid of being rude. I was brought up under the idea that saying “no”, especially to people who are older, is rude. This thinking is common in Asian culture, where face-saving is important. It means not making others look bad or lose faces.
Wanting to be agreeable. At times, you find you are not in agreement. You don’t want to keep yourself away from the group, so you agree to do others’ requests (请求).
Fear of conflict (冲突). The person might be angry if you refuse him. This might lead to an ugly conflict. Even if there isn’t, there might be disagreement which might lead to bad effects (影响) in the future.
Fear of losing opportunities (机会). Sometimes, saying “no” means closing doors or losing opportunities. It may make you feel worried. For example, one of my friends was asked to work in another department (部门) in her company (公司). Since she liked her team, she didn’t want to go. However, she didn’t want to say “no” as she felt it would affect her promotion (晋升) opportunities in the future.
