The epidemic (疫情) has changed our lives. It not only forces us to stay at home, but also changes the waywe work, study and even go shopping. In many countries, the Novel Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has
also changed the way people greet each other. To help stop the spread of the disease, people give up their usual
greeting styles and invent safe ways. Let’s take a look.
Lean forward, touch cheeks (脸颊) and make a kissing sounds. This is French people’s favorite way of
greeting. It’s very romantic. But when facing the virus, kisses are not good. Etiquette expert (礼仪专家) Philippe
Lichtfus gives people a suggestion: simply looking into a person’s eyes can be a greeting. It’s not so romantic but
it’s safe.
Like the French, Italians are also romantic people. When they meet, they always hug or kiss each other.
Recently, an Italian grandma made a video to help everyone fight against the disease. She says that if you meet,
you can close one of your eyes and give them a wink. Isn’t it cute?
It’s a very Australian thing to shake hands. But if you do this, the virus can jump from one person to another.
Now a health official in Australia says a pat (轻拍) on the back would be better. But it also had some problems.
For example, it’s a bit rude if you do this to your teachers.
A video shows that an interesting greeting way is now popular in Iran. In the video, three Iranians meet and
tap their feet against each other. They wear masks with their hands in their pockets. It looks like they are playing a
fun game. If we can’t shake hands, why not try to “shake” feet?
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
1. Why do people give up their usual greeting styles nowadays?
A. To make life more interesting. B. To change their study way.
C. To protect themselves from the disease.
2. What does the French peopled favorite greeting way include?

④Shaking feet ⑤Give a tap on the back.

3. What’s the Italian grandma’s suggestion to greet others?
A. B. C.

Reading is the most effective (有效的) human activity for changing information into knowledge. It’s
becoming a more and more important skill.
What kind of reader are you? “Reading comprehension” refers to (指) how much you understand about what
you read.
Top readers usually read at a speed of above 1,000 words per minute (wpm) with near 85% comprehension.
Common readers only reach around 200 wpm with near 60% comprehension.

there are so many new words that something I’m not familiar with.

read word by word, which I know understanding the long sentences. Maybe
belongs to bad reading habits. I should learn more about grammar, at
How I wish I can read ten lines at least as many sentence patterns as
a glance! possible.
How can you increase your reading speed? Before you read, you should look over the text quickly without
actually reading every word. Get some basic information by looking over the text quickly. For example, you can
check if there are titles (标题) or subtitles and how many paragraphs there are. While you’re reading, try to get
main ideas and key information instead of what each word exactly means. And try to understand the writer
between the lines. After you read, ask yourself some questions like these: What is the text about? What are themost important things that happened in the text? What have I learned form it? In this way, you can check your
comprehension of what you have read.
Learning to read is about more than just reading the words! The more you read, the better you’ll be at reading.
