But there is one question that has numberless correct answers. That qu

2、estion is “Whats your name?”. Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct. Have you ever wondered about peoples names? Where do they come from? What do they mean? Peoples first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other members of

3、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 “w

4、orld 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 leaf

5、y forest. Other early surnames came from peoples occupations. The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals.

7、 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 Lightfoot w

8、as probably a fast runner or a good dancer. Some family names were made by adding something to the fathers name. English-speaking people added -s or -son. The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts familys ancestor was Robert. Irish and Scottish people added Mac- or Mc- or O-. Perhaps all of

9、the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the ODonnells are descendants of the same Donnell.21. Which of the following is NOT covered in the surnames of the passage? A. Peoples characters. B.

16、ll D. St Matins vs Doonsberg and Northerners vs TigersC“Where are we going, Dad?”, one of the hottest Chinese reality shows, has become a hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a

17、modem version of the “how to be a good father”. As the young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of “Lost on the way” played by nanny Daddy and cute kids raised a lot of peoples emotional common feelings. Both the kids and their parents will find that their heart

18、s are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modem parents and children. The TV shows like “Children are hard to support!”, “Where are we going, Dad?”, “hot moms” and “cute kids” are becoming more and more popular. All of these

19、show the new parents confusion in childrens education and the appeal for the balance between career and family. In real life, on the one hand, the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand, they continue

20、to do so. The data collected by Hunan TV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34. We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in social

21、izing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in th

22、e childrens education is also very low.It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modem family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that “Where are we going, Dad?” shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modem citizen wi

23、th independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the c

24、hildren go.28. In raising a child in modern society, parents should _.A. let their children go without caring anything B. keep their children at home to avoid socializing C. balance well between family and career D. break down the barrier between children and teachers29. Which of the following can b

25、e inferred in the passage?A. Parents shouldnt entirely leave the education of children to the old. B. 36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34. C. The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play. D. In a modern family it is often mothers who are

26、 responsible for raising a child.30. The passage suggests young parents feel helpless in raising children mainly because _. A. they have no professional knowledge for this field B. the old are free and forced to raise the grandchildren instead C. their children feel isolated and lonely with them D.

27、they are occupied with working and making a living31. What chief attitude towards modern family education does the author express in the passage? A. Pessimistic. B. Worried. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.D With a growing trend for feminists （女权主义者）, common images of veiled（穿婚纱的）brides walking down t

28、he aisle on her fathers arm could become a thing of the past. Doing away with the engagement ring, choosing not to be given away like property and wearing a colour other than white are key themes in the feminist wedding trend. The findings, revealed in a survey of 200 brides-to-be, suggested that al

29、most a quarter of women planned on keeping their last name after marriage, while one in 10 were planning to wear a colour other than white on their wedding day. Traditions such as the wearing of an engagement ring are also increasingly being rejected by brides who feel it is anti-feminist-with such

30、an obvious symbol to be worn on the finger marking the woman taken.However, while there is undoubtedly exciting data among young brides, parents can take comfort in the fact that while some women are beginning to push back against the patriarchy （家长制）, the majority are still keen to support certain

31、traditions, with 76 per cent of brides saying they really would like their father to walk them down the aisle.Elki Parmar of Wedding Days. Co.UK, who conducted the survey, said: “Some of the brides we have spoken to are doing things to make their wedding more feminist. That could be reflected by dec

32、iding not to be given away, which means that the woman is property to be given away. Other brides are choosing not to wear white on their wedding day, since a womans white wedding dress traditionally carries meanings of virginal innocence.

38、ilure, and they are stopped by it when they encounter one.Rise up and dont regret When we fail, we might be tempted to think that we have wasted our time and thus regret it. But that should not be the case. The fact that you have done something is much better than doing nothing. Rise up and move on.

39、 36 Understand that failure is there to bring you wisdom Failure is there not without a reason. 37 Each failure you encounter increases your wisdom and brings you one step closer to success. If you have this, you will see failure differently. You will see each failure as an opportunity to learn. 38

40、While failure brings you wisdom, how much wisdom you will get depends entirely on your ability to harvest it. So dont waste the opportunity to learn. If you fail to do this, you may waste a lot of time by repeating the same mistakes in the future.Dont give up; maybe you are only one step away from s
