This passage is most probably taken from a ________.A. newspaperB. websiteC. magazineD. a bookBUsually, 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 brook(小溪)；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(祖先) 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.60. Which of the following about the surnames in the passage are NOT included ?A. Places where people lived.B. People‟s characters.C. Talents that people possessed.D. People‟s occupations.61. According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably _______.A. owned or drove a cartB. made things with metalsC. made kitchen tools or containsD. built houses and furniture62.

She heard footsteps by the front door. Brenda was right on time, as usual. Never a minute early or late — for her, everything was very exact.Anne placed her feet on the floor, reached for the remote, and turned off the television. She knew Brenda would demand her complete attention. She knew Brenda would hang up her coat in the closet by the door (third hanger from the left) and then head to the kitchen for her daily inspection (exactly seven steps). She knew this because they had been roommates for six months. Taking a deep breath, she thought about what she would say to Brenda. She waited and watched from her spot on the couch.A moment later, Brenda stepped into the kitchen and surveyed the scene. Anne watched her expression, watched her eyes focus on the sink, and watched her face harden when she saw the dishes piled high. Pointing to the dishes, Brenda said disappointedly, "I don't believe what I'm seeing. I thought we agreed to share the responsibilities. I thought it was your turn to clean the kitchen this week?""I haven't gotten to them yet," Anne replied. "I've been really busy. Relax. I've got all night." She walked into the kitchen and added her empty glass to the top of the pile.Brenda fumed(生气的). "You know I'm having company tonight! Somehow I thought you would have done your share in the kitchen. If we want to remain roommates, things have to change. "The phone rang, and Anne darted to answer it. Brenda said in the background, "Tell them to call back; we need to settle this now. I told you I'm having company soon."Anne ignored Brenda's comment and continued to engage in conversation with a good friend of hers. "Did I ever tell you about the time when …"64.

T hat is what …keeping up with the Joneses‟ is about, It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He toldthis story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants.

The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment (公寓房间) in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life-style (生活方式) of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series (系列) of short stories, He called it …Keeping up with the Joneses‟ because …Jones‟ is a very common name in the United States.‟ Keeping up with the Joneses‟ came to mean keeping up with rich li festyle of the people around you. Momand‟s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are …Jon e ses‟ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.67.
