10．It is good to get in touch with your inner child from time to time，and obviously some people are willing to pay big money for the chance to do so in a proper environment．A Brooklyn-based adult preschool is charging customers between 333and999for the chance to act like a kid again．
At Preschool Mastermind in New York adults get to participate in show-and-tell，arts-and-crafts such as finger paint，games like musical chairs and even take naps．The month-long course also has class picture day where the adults are expected to have a field trip and a parent day．
30-year-old Michelle Joni Lapidos，the brain behind the adult preschool，studied childhood education and has always wanted to be a preschool teacher．She's always on the lookout for new ways to get people in touch with the freedom of childhood．A friend encouraged her to start the mastermind course instead．
According to Candice，her blogger friend，Preschool Mastermind gives adults a chance to relearn and master the things that they failed to understand as children．"I realized all the significances of what we learn in preschool，"said founder Michelle Joni，"People come here and get in touch with their inner child．It's magical．We are bringing ourselves back to another place，another time with ourselves when we are more believing in ourselves，more confident and ready to take on the world．"
"One person's here because they want to learn not to be so serious．"Michelle said．"Another's here to learn to be more confident．"She explained that most of the classes were planned．However，Joni added that while the planned activities were fun，it was often the spontaneous（自發(fā)的）moments that attracted students．"It's the things you don't plan for，the sharing between friends and learning from each other．"

15．How good are you at saying"no"？For many，it's surprisingly difficult．This is especially true of editors，who by nature tend to be eager and engaged participants in everything they do．Consider these scenes：
It's late in the day．That front-page package you've been working on is nearly complete； the last editing and it's finished．Then enters the chief editor，who makes a suggestion requiring a more-than-modest rearrangement of the design and the addition of an information box．You want to scream："No!It's done!"What do you do？
The first rule of saying no to the boss is‘don't say no，．He probably has something in mind when he makes the suggestion，and it's up to you to find out what．The second rule is'don't raise the risks by challenging his authority，．That issue is already decided．The third rule is‘be ready to put forward choices and consequences，．The boss's suggestion might be appropriate，but there are always consequences．He might not know about the pages backing up that need attention，or about the designer who had to go home sick．Tell him he can have what he wants，hut explain the consequences．Understand what he's trying to accomplish and propose（提議）a Flan B that will make it happen without destroying what you've done so far．
Here's another case．Your least-favorite reporter suggests a silly story idea．This one should be easy，but it's not．If you say no，even politely，you risk holding back further ideas，not just from that reporter，but from others who heard that you turned down the idea．This case is common in newsrooms that lack a systematic way to filter（過(guò)濾）story suggestions．
Two steps are necessary．First，you need a system for how stories are proposed and reviewed．Reporters can bear rejection of their ideas if they believe they are given a fair hearing．Your natural reaction and strong rejection，even of a worthless idea，might not qualify as systematic or fair．
Second，the people you work with need to make a"What if"．？，agreement covering‘‘What if my idea is turned down？，How are people expected to react？Is there an appeal process？Can they perfect the idea and resubmit it？By imagining"What if…？"situations before they happen，you can reach understanding that will help ease you out of opposition．
50．This passage is mainly aboutD．
A．the cases where ideas are rejected
B．the ways to give different opinions
C．the skills of saying no 
D．the methods for solving disagreements
51．Instead of directly refusing your boss's suggestion，you shouldB．
A．pretend that you are sick
B．seek what he is thinking about
C．state that your design is quite perfect
D．a(chǎn)sk him to give the reason for his suggestion
52．By saying"This one should be easy…"（Paragraph 4），the writer means it's easy toD
A．understand the silly story idea
B．let others politely say no
C．fool your least-favorite reporter  
D．turn down that reporter's idea
53．Why is it important to set up a system for stories to be proposed and reviewed？D
A．To allow reporters enough time to change their attitude．
B．To develop reporters5 strong sense of fairness．
C．To encourage reporters to give valuable ideas．
D．To guarantee reporters chances to give further explanations．
54．What is conveyed in the last paragraph？A
A．Sometimes we may view a problem from another angle．
B．We may relax ourselves by raising questions when we're in trouble．
C．"What if …？"situations help improve our relationship with others．
D．It's almost impossible for others to accept our ideas at once．
