21、Avoiding a handshake may have been considered impolite a couple of years ago, but it is now getting more and more common, especially because of the outbreak of COVID-19.

Health officials have expressed the importance of completely washing our hands and maintaining proper hand hygiene(卫生). As a result, people around the world are creating alternatives to handshakes such as fist bumps(碰，撞) and elbow bumps.

Let’s take a look at some of the common greetings that are used around the world in place of the famous handshake and more of the alternatives people are using instead of shaking each others’ hands.

If you have ever traveled to Asian countries like China, India, or Cambodia, you may notice that it is common to see people bowing to greet each other. Bowing is a traditional sign of respect in many Asian cultures and has been a custom for centuries.

Meanwhile, in parts of Europe like France, Italy, and Spain and countries in Latin America like Mexico, Peru, and Brazil, the air kiss is more common. Various rules regarding the gender, relationship, and form also exist within these different countries. Officials in countries including France are recommending people to avoid direct kisses.

Some other unique greetings include sniffing(嗅，闻) one another’s faces in native cultures in Greenland and Tuvalu, sticking out one’s tongue in Tibet (a region of China), and clapping one’s hands in the African countries of Zimbabwe and Mozambique.

With the spread of COVID-19, people are getting creative with the ways they greet each other. A trend that has gained advantage is the “Wuhan Shake”, a greeting where two people gently bump each other’s feet with each foot.

Moreover, people, including famous figures like Prince Harry, US Vice President Mike Pence, and celebrities and athletes, have been giving up the formal handshake for elbow bumps.

Although officials have not clearly issued warnings against shaking hands, many doctors and health specialists have praised the handshake alternatives as a way to continue maintaining proper hygiene.

【1】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A．COVID-19

B．A handshake

C．Washing our hands

D．Avoiding a handshake

【2】How do people commonly greet each other in Cambodia?

A．By sniffing one another’s faces.

C．By bowing.

D．By sticking out one’s tongue.

【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the last three paragraphs?

A．People no longer greet each other due to the spread of COVID-19.

B．“Wuhan Shake” is a greeting in which people do elbow bumps.

C．Shaking hands has been prohibited by the governments.

D．The handshake alternatives are an approach to maintaining proper hygiene.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A．The Impact of COVID-19 on Living

B．No Handshake? No Problem!

C．Formal Greeting Ways around the World

D．Good News on COVID-19 Vaccines

22、Scientists are working to stop a deadly virus that infects pigs. This African swine flu (猪流感) virus is causing huge losses for farmers in China and other Asian countries. Many farmers have tried to contain it by destroying infected animals. But the spread of the disease into East Asia has stepped up the search for other ways to deal with the problem.

The virus had not been considered a major concern for researchers until it appeared in China last year. Chinese farmers raise about half of the world’s pigs. Some researchers think the virus might have come from infected animals in Eastern Europe or Russia. Since then it has spread to China, Vietnam and other Asian countries. Millions of pigs have been destroyed.

Although swine flu does not sicken people, it is very infectious and deadly to pigs. As the deadly virus kills pigs across Asia, scientists are speeding up efforts to develop a vaccine (疫苗). “Today’s situation, where you have this global danger, puts a lot more emphasis on it,” said Doctor Luis Rodriguez, who leads the United States government laboratory for foreign animal diseases.

Vaccines are often developed by killing a virus before it is put into an animal. The disabled virus does not make the animal sick, but it activates the body’s natural defenses against disease. The immune system is then able to identify the virus and produce antibodies against it. However, this method is not effective with all viruses including the one that causes African swine flu. For swine flu, scientists have been working on a different kind of vaccine. It is made from a weakened virus, not a dead one. The problem for researchers has been how to change the virus so it can be safely used.

Vietnam’s government reported a few weeks ago that it was testing vaccines, but provided few details. In China, the government says scientists are working on a vaccine that genetically changes the virus, which is similar to a method being used by scientists in the US.

【1】What caused the researchers’ deeper concern?

A．The virus’ appearance in China.

B．The disease’s damage to people’s health.

C．The death rate of pigs all over the world.

D．The failure of vaccine’s development.

【2】What does “it” refer to in paragraph 3?

A．Developing a vaccine.

B．Curing the infected pigs.

C．Finding the origins of the virus.

D．Studying the harmful effects on people.

【3】What can we learn about the vaccines for African swine flue?

A．They are developed from a dead virus.

B．Regular developing methods apply to them.

C．China and the U.S. have different methods of developing them.

D．The genetic change of the virus may be a breakthrough for the vaccines.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．Government Places Much Stress on Virus Research

B．Swine Flu Leads to the Deaths of Lots of Pigs

C．Scientists Hurry to Develop Vaccine for Swine Flu

D．Research onAnimal Diseases Makes Great Progress

23、People express their personalities in their clothes, their cars, and their homes. Because we might choose certain foods to 'tell' people something about us, our diets can also be an expression of our personalities. For example, some people eat mainly gourmet foods, such as caviar (鱼子酱) and lobster (龙虾), and they eat only in expensive restaurants. 【1】

Human beings can eat many different kinds of foods, but some people choose not to eat meat. 【2】Their personalities might be similar too. For example, vegetarians in the United States and Canada may be creative people, and they might not enjoy competitive sports or jobs. They worry about the health of the world, and they are probably strongly opposed to war.

【3】 One study shows that many fast food eaters have a lot in common with one another, but they are very different from vegetarians. They are competitive and good at business. 【4】 Many fast food eaters might not agree with this description of their personalities, but it is common picture of them.

Some people also believe that people of the same astrological sign (星座) have similar food personalities. Aries (born under the sign of Aries, between March 21 and April 20) usually like spicy foods, with a lot of onions and pepper. People with the sign of Taurus (April 21 to May 22) prefer healthful fruits and vegetables, but they often eat too much. 【5】 Aquarius (January 21 to February 19) can eat as much meat and fish as they want, but sugar and cholesterol (胆固醇) are sometimes problems for them.

A．They are also usually in a hurry.

B．Some people eat mostly fast food.

C．They know about the “better things in life”.

D．Vegetarians often have more in common than just their diet.

E．People's personalities have something to do with their parents.

F．Many people avoid alcohol, which makes the body lose too much water.

G．Sagittarius (November 22 to December 22) like ethnic foods from many different countries.

24、In this day and age,it may seem that getting two people with different views together to discuss them leads to a disaster.Just think about what would happen if you sat down and had an open and honest conversation with someone with completely opposing views.Could it bring you closer together?

Human Libraries help to remind us there really is more that unites us than divides us.And as events now spread throughout 82 countries,with Human Libraries even set to launch soon in Pakistan and Jordan,you can tell that is a shared feeling.

"We can spend billions and billions in trying to build up homeland security and our safety,but real safety comes from having positive relations to other groups in your community."said Abergel,"Real safety is not going to come from building walls.It's going to come from reaching out and getting to know each other."
