Names

  Everybody in the world has one name at least. And to each person his name is important because it is his own.

  Remember how you don't like it very much if people can't remember your name, or pronounce it wrong? Remember how you like to see it printed in the newspaper or even on the blackboard at school? That's because it is your own and only you can have it.

  Of course, names aren't important in themselves. There are no “good” names or “bad” names. But they are useful in our life. You don't have to go around shouting!

  “Hey, You!”or “Hello. Girl-with-the-red-hair.”or “Thank you, Man-who-lives-at-the-end-of-the-street.” Wouldn't it be foolish?

  A person's name means something. For example. John or Nathan means “present”. James or Jacob means “he follows after.” Frank means “free”. Charles has “strong” in meaning. Thomas is a word for “twin”. Girls'names mean something, too. If you know a Mary or a Miriam, her name means “star of the sea.” Helen means “light”. Rebecca, “very beautiful”. Rhoda is a “rose”.

  Now first names are all we need when we've at home. For it isn't very often that two sisters or two brothers have the same first name. But it's different when you go out to play or go to school. You may have a lot of Johns and Davids and Sues. You could get all mixed up and not know who was who. That's why last names started. And last names are really nicknames(绰号).

  It happened like this: There was a certain Richard. Since his father's name was James, he was called “Richard, son of James.” And later just Richard Jameson.

  The place where they lived gave some people their last names. For example, Mr Short was talking about Joseph.

  “Which Joseph?” someone might ask.

  “Why, the Joseph who lives in the field.”

  And right then that Joseph had a last name: Joseph Field. You can think of many more last names that started that way.

1.You like your name ________.

[  ]

A.because people can't remember it

B.because it is important

C.when others give the wrong pronunciation

D.when it is printed in the newspaper or written ca the blackboard

2.Names are ________.

[  ]

A.important in themselves

B.useful in our life

C.good or bad

D.foolish

3.Sometimes a person's name means something, for example, ________.

[  ]

A.John is “strong”

B.Mary means “star of the sea”

C.Charles is a “present”

D.Helen is a word of “happiness”

4.Last names started because ________.

[  ]

A.two brothers or two sisters have the same first names

B.you often go out to play or go to school

C.if you aren't at home, you may meet a lot of Johns, Davids or Sues

D.you don't know everybody outside

5.How does a last name come from?

[  ]

A.The Joseph lives in the field. He is called Joseph Field.

B.His father is called Jameson so his son becomes Jameson.

C.The place where Mr Short lives often gives people the same name.

D.People like to give others nickname.

Plant scientists consider them as fruit. Most other people think of them as vegetables. Whatever you call tomatoes, there are many different kinds of this popular and healthy food.
There are two groups of the plants. Small tomato plants grow to about one meter. They can be planted rather close together. Some short kinds do not require special care and are often gotten crop by machines. Large tomato plants can grow over two meters tall. They also produce larger fruits.
People who grow only a few plants can place wire cages around each one. The cage can be made of wire fence material. The cage helps the plant grow taller and produce a better crop.
Tomatoes often need extra calcium (Ca), or the fruits may be ruined. Add lime to the soil can solve this problem. Dry lands may also ruin the fruits. Tomatoes need water regularly. The soil should never dry out completely. Dried grass or leaves placed around the plant can help hold water in the soil and stop the growth of unwanted plants.
Tomatoes are native to South America. The tomato is a member of the potato family. The leaves of the plant are poisonous, like the leaves of its relatives. Before the 18th century, people grew tomatoes only as pretty plants. They called the bright red fruit a “love apple”, but would not eat it.
【小题1】Which of the following is right about the small tomato plants?
A. They can grow to about 2 meters.          
B. They can’t be planted close together.
C. Some of them don’t require special care.
【小题2】People place wire cages around the plant in order to ___________.
A. protect the plant from being taken by others.
B. help the plant grow taller and produce a better crop
C. keep the plant from being eaten by animals
【小题3】The underlined word “ruin” probably means “___________”.
A. grow         B. destroy              C. stop          
【小题4】 People often give tomatoes extra calcium by ___________.
A. adding lime to the soil                    B. watering the plant regularly
C. putting dried grass around the plant

As you are soon on your way to Eastern Europe, here are a few tips on what you should pack. In general, pack lightly, with only the most basic clothes. People dress casually(随便地) in Eastern Europe, so you don’t need to bring along your smartest clothing.
Batteries: If your camera, flash, or other appliances run on batteries, bring enough supply along. Certain types of batteries don’t exist in Eastern Europe, and those that do often don’t last very long.
Cash: We have found it good to have supply of small-unit U.S. bills($1and $5) to use in hard–currency stores, to buy international train tickets, etc. The hard–currency stores never seem to have the right change.
Electric Current Adapter(转换器): If you bring any appliances, remember that the electricity in Eastern Europe uses 220 volts A.C., not the standard 110 volts of North America. A 110 volts appliance will soon burn out when attached to an unchanged 220-volt plug.
Language Tools: One of Europe’s biggest challenges is communicating with the local people since their languages are so different from our own. To help overcome difficulties, you might buy phrasebooks before you go — you won’t find them once you are in Eastern Europe.
Money Belt: A money belt is especially helpful when you have many documents to carry around ( as you always do in Eastern Europe). The best one we find is made by Eagle Greek Travel Gear, 143 Cedros Ave. (P. O. box 651), Solona Beach, CA 92075 (tel. 619/755 – 9399, or toll free 800/874 – 9925) outside California.
Traveler’s Checks: These are necessary. Bring your traveler’s checks in small to medium unit ($10, $20, or $50) to change a little bit at a time, so as not to be left with a lot of local money. To be on the safe side, be sure to copy down the check numbers in two places, just in case something happens to the checks.
【小题1】How many tips are mentioned in the passage?

A.6B.7 C.8D.9
【小题2】Which of the following things may be the biggest challenge in Eastern Europe?
A.Appliances.B.Money.C.Language.D.Clothes.
【小题3】Which of the following statements is NOT a fact according to the passage?
A. No shop in Eastern Europe accepts hard currency.
B. Travelers may need to carry many documents in Eastern Europe.
C. The electricity in Eastern Europe uses 220 volts A.C.
D. Eastern European languages can be a problem to foreign travelers.
【小题4】What’s the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?
A.To tell you it’s not easy to stay in Eastern Europe.
B.To give you some advice on what you should pack when you’re in Eastern Europe.
C.To tell you something about the life in Eastern Europe.
D.To show you the life in Eastern Europe is different from that in your country.
【小题5】What do the underlined words “change” and “check” probably mean according to the given dictionary entries(词条)?
change
1. [V] to become different 改变;变化
2. [V] to exchange money into the money of another country 兑换
3. [U] the money that you get back when you have paid for sth giving more money than the amount it costs 找给的零钱;找头
check
1. [V] to examine sth to see if it is correct, safe or acceptable 检查;审查
2. [C] an act of making sure that sth is safe, correct or in good condition by examining it 检查;查看
3. [C] a printed form that you can write on and sign as a way of paying for sth instead of using money 支票
A.1; 3B.3; 3 C.2; 3D.2; 2
