Usually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer.But there is one question that has millions of current answers.That question is “What’s your name?” Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct.

       Have you ever wondered about people’s names? Where do they come from? What do they mean?

       People’s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents.Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used.Some parents choose the name of a well-known person.A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.

       Some people give their children names that mean good things.Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler”; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”.

       The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names.A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a brook;someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road.The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.

       Other early surnames came from people’s occupations.The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals.In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village.Some other occupational names are: Carter — a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter — a person who made pots and pans.

       The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village.The Carpenter’s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.

       Sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities.When there were two men who were named John in the same village, the John with the gray hair probably became John Gray.Or the John was very tall could call himself John Tallman.John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.

       Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name.English-speaking people added–s or–son.The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family’s ancestor was Robert.Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O.Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O’Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.

1.Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOT cover?

       A.Places where people lived.                    B.People’s characters.

       C.Talents that people possessed.                   D.People’s occupations.

2.According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably ________.

       A.owned or drove a cart                          B.made things with metals

       C.made kitchen tools or containers                D.built houses and furniture

3.Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader, the baby might be named ________.

A.Beatrice Smith       B.Leonard Carter        C.George Longstreet   D.Donald Greenwood

4.The underlined word “descendants” in the last paragraph means a person’s ________.

       A.later generations                                 B.friends and relatives

       C.colleagues and partners                            D.later sponsors

I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)—all those little houses, looking terri­bly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses.I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London.I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.

Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good man­ners.The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good man­ners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.

I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places.You’re forced to live indoors.In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs.To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman.The cafes are not terribly nice.

As a woman, I feel unsafe here.I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public trans­port after 10 p.m.I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.

The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French.In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now.His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

1.The writer doesn’t like London because she ______.

       A.is not used to the life there now

       B.has lived there for seventeen years

       C.prefers to live in an old-fashioned house

       D.has to be polite to everyone she meets there

2.Where do people usually meet their friends in England?

       A.In a cafe.     B.In a restaurant.      C.In a nightclub.  D.In a pub.

3.The underlined part “it” (in Par      A.4) refers to______.

       A.a taxi                     B.the money        C.a bomb           D.public transport

4.The writer took her neighbour to France for Christmas because he ______.

       A.felt lonely in England                         B.had never been to France

       C.was from a typical French family         D.didn't like the British idea of family
