    　　“Good evening,” the Spaniard said “Have you got any free rooms? We’re very tired．”

    　　It was very dark in the street, and the old man said, “Who are you?

    　　The Spaniard said, “We are Don Ramon Roberto Nanuel Claudio Rodriguez Rafael Eduardo de Salas and Dona Maria Conchita Diana Marcelina Roberta Mercedes Manuela de Salas．”

    When former American President Bill Clinton traveled to South Korea to visit President Kim Young Sam, he repeatedly referred to the Korean president’s wife as Mrs. Kim. By mistake, President Clinton’s advisers thought that Koreans have the same naming customs as the Japanese. Clinton had not been told that, in Korea, wives keep their family names. President Kim Young Sam’s wife was named Sohm Myong Suk. Therefore, she should be addressed (称谓) as Mrs. Sohm.
    President Clinton arrived in Korea directly after leaving Japan and had not changed his culture gears. His failure to follow Korean customs gave the impression that Korea was not as important to him as Japan.
    In addition to Koreans some Asian husbands and wives do not share the same family names. This practice often puzzles English-speaking teachers when talking with a pupil’s parents. They become puzzled about the student’s correct last name. Placing the family name first is common among a number of Asian cultures.
    Mexican naming customs are different as well. When a woman marries, she keeps her family name and adds her husband’s name after the word “de”, which means “of”. This affects how they fill in forms in the United States. When requested to fill in a middle name, they generally write the father’s family name. But Mexicans are addressed by the family name of the mother. This often causes puzzlement.
    Here are a few ways to deal with such difficult situations: don’t always think that a married woman uses her husband’s last name. Remember that in many Asian cultures, the order of first and last names is reversed (颠倒). Ask which name a person would prefer to use. If the name is difficult to pronounce, admit it, and ask the person to help you say it correctly.
    【小题1】The story of Bill Clinton is used to _____ .

    A．improve US Korean relations
    B．introduce the topic of the text
    C．describe his visit to Korea
    D．tell us how to address a person
    【小题2】The word “gears” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.
    A．action plansB．naming customsC．travel mapsD．thinking patterns
    【小题3】When a woman marries in Korea, she _____.
    A．continues to use her family name
    B．uses her husband’s given name
    C．shares her husband’s family name
    D．adds her husband’s given name to hers
    【小题4】To address a married woman properly, you’d better ______ .
    A．use her middle name B．use her husband’s first name
    C．ask her which name she likesD．change the order of her names
    【小题5】What can NOT be inferred from the text? ______ .
    A．Wives do not keep their family names in Japan.
    B．Different countries have different naming customs in some way.
    C．Naming custom will not cause any puzzle among Asian countries.
    D．The naming custom in Korea is different from that of Japan.

    Fourteen – year – old Richie Hawley had spent five years studying violin at the Community School of Performing Arts in Los Angeles when he took part in a violin contest. Ninety two young people were invited to the contest and Hawley came out first．

    　　The contest could have been the perfect setup for fear, worrying about mistakes, and trying to impress the judges. But Hawley says he did pretty well in staying calm. “I couldn’t be thinking about how many mistakes I’d make — it would distract me from playing,” he says. “I didn’t even remember trying to impress people while I played. It’s almost as if they weren’t there. I just wanted to make music.”

    Hawley is a winner. But he didn’t become a winner by concentrating on winning. He did it by concentrating on playing well．

    　　“The important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part,” said the founder of the modern Olympics, Pierre de Coubertin. “The important thing in life is not the triumph (胜利) but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.”

    　　A characteristic of high performers is their intense, pleasurable concentration on work, rather than on their competitors or future glory or money, says Dr. Charles Garfield, who has studied 1,500 achievers in business, science, sports, the arts, and professions. “They are interested in winning, but they are most interested in self - development, testing their limits.”

    　　One of the most surprising things about top performers is how many losses they’ve had and how much they’ve learned from each. “Not one of the 1,500 I studied defined losing as failing,” Garfield says. “They kept calling their losses ‘setbacks’.”

    　　A healthy attitude toward setbacks is essential to winning, experts agree．

    　　“The worst thing you can do if you’ve had a setback is to let yourself get stuck in a long depression. You should analyze carefully what went wrong, identify specific things you did right and give yourself credit for them.” Garfield believes that most people don’t give themselves enough praise. He even suggests keeping a diary of all the positive things you’ve done on the way to a goal．

    1.Hawley won the contest because ________．

    A. he put all his mind to his performance

    B. he cared much about the judges’ feelings

    C. he tried his best to avoid making mistakes

    D. he paid close attention to the people around

    2.According to the passage, successful people concentrate on ________．

    A. challenging their own limits                              B. learning from others

    C. defeating their opponents                                    D. avoiding setbacks

    3.The passage tells us that “praise” in times of trouble ________．

    A. helps people deal with their disappointment

    B. makes people forget their setbacks

    C. makes people regret about their past

    D. helps people analyze what went wrong
