Based on further tires, it seems that adding the following two options
in init file can't do trick:

      reftex-enable-partial-scans t
      reftex-save-parse-info t

While the `C-u C-c [' or `Ref -- Parse Document -- Entire Document'
will do the trick. So I use the following RefTeX options in my init
file now:

(setq reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t
        reftex-use-multiple-selection-buffers t)
