     Usually,when your teacher asks a question,there is only one correct answer. But there is one question
that has
millions of correct 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 sumames,were taken from place names.  A family with the name Brook or
Brooks probably lived near a 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 sumames 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 andvillage.  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 who was very tall could call himself John Tallman.  John Fish
was probably an excellent swimmer and John Light-foot 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 0.  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 sumames 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 n.ost probably ____.
A. owned or drove a cart                      
B. made things with metals
C. made kitchen tools or contains              
D. built houses and fumiture
3. Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-bom 
    son 'o 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

  43   , everyone has scars and shortcomings. Some of you may spend much time thinking that people   44   like you better, if you looked different, or dressed differently, or could have a different and newer  45 .

But you see, like Keaton’s scar, people will only judge you by your looks, or your  46   , or your car, if you are judging yourself by these same false  47 .
