“What’s in a name?”According to Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet,there is not too much.“That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”But Shakespeare may have been wrong.In most cultures,names matter a great deal.

Americans choose names for their children with care.Parents usually think about the impression a name gives,not its meaning.Most Americans would consider a“Jennifer”more attractive than a “Bertha”，for example.The last name,or,surname,must also be considered when choosing a first and middle name.A name like Lester Chester Hester would sound poetic,but odd.Parents would avoid names that remind them of people they don’t like.On the other hand,people might name their children after a respected elderly relative or even a famous person.The popularity of certain names can change with each new generation.Names that were once common,like Fanny or Elmer,sound old-fashioned today.But other names—like John and David,Mary and Sarah—have stood the test of time and continue to be favorites.

People in Ameica don’t always call their friends and relatives by their given names.Instead,they often use nicknames.Sometimes nicknames are short forms of a longer name.For instance,a girl named Elizabeth may be called Lisa,Beth or Betsy.As children grow up,they may decide for themselves which nickname they wish to be called.Some people just go by the initials of their first and middle names,like B.J.or R.C.And of course,people may call their children or their sweethearts other special nicknames.Often they have a “sweet” flavor,like Honey or Sugar.What’s in a name? A world of significance.So if you’re choosing an English name for yourself,take care to choose a good one.Amade-up name could sound strange to native English speakers.And a translation of your Chinese name may not make an appropriate name,either.But a good name can leave a positive and lasting impression.As an American politician once said,“In real life,unlike in Shakespeare,the sweetness of the rose depends upon the name it bears.”

1.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean?

A.People change names in order to be popular with the new generation.

B.Names will change by themselves in order to be popular.

C.Some names may no longer be popular among the new generation.

D.No names can stand the test of time.

2.When choosing names,you should stick to the following principles except that_________.

A.the impression a name gives is more important than its meaning

B.you can name after a well-known person

C.surname should be paid attention to

D.you can create a name that is special

3.The word “initial” in paragraph 3 probably means_________.

A.nickname            B.the first letter        C.short form        D.title

4.The author will name a newly born baby girl             .

A.Bertha               B.Fanny             C.Yunyun          D.Elizabeth

5.What is the main idea of this passage?

A.Names have great significance to Americans.    

B.Names change when time goes by.

C.Chinese people should be careful when choosing their English names.

D.Roses smell sweet by any other name.

It's not every week that England's greatest playwright William Shakespeare hits the headlines, but the Bard of Avon （艾芬河的吟游詩人） has been the subject of two news stories in recent days as new information has come to light about the writer and his working environment．

In the first development, a portrait of Shakespeare, which is believed to be the only picture painted of him during his lifetime, was unveiled in London．

The artwork has been dated back to 1610, meaning it was painted six years before the writer's death．

The painting had been owned by a family descended from Shakespeare's literary patron （文學(xué)贊助人） tor hundreds of years without them ever knowing who the man in the picture was．

Alec Cobbe, who inherited the portrait, realized that the painting was a likeness of Shakespeare after visiting an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery where he saw a portrait that had, until 70 years ago, been accepted as a life portrait of Shakespeare．

Mr Cobhe immediately realized he was looking at a copy of the painting that had been in his family for centuries．

The painting will now go on display in Shakespeare's hometown Stratford-upon-Avon．

In a separate story, archaeologists in London believe they have unearthed the remains of Shakespeare's first theatre．

The site was excavated（發(fā)掘） by a team from the Museum of London last summer, and is believed to have been built in 1576．

Experts think that Shakespeare himself acted at the theatre, which may have been where the play Romeo and Juliet was premiered （首次公演）．

It is believed that 25 years after construction, the building was pulled down and moved timber by timber to the South Bank of the Thames, where a reconstruction of the theatre now stands．

1.．What is the story mainly about?

    A．The remains of the first theatre．  B．Shakespeare's portrait．

    C．Early life of Shakespeare．        D．Great works of Shakespeare．

2.．What does the underlined word "unveiled" mean in the passage?

    A．made public      B．found out       C．on sale           D．sold out

3.．Before visiting the exhibition, Alec Cobbe ___    _．

    A．knew his painting was a copy of the portrait of Shakespeare

    B．thought his painting was a little like Shakespeare

    C．realized his painting was very valuable

    D．was unknown who the man in the painting was

4.．Which of the following is true?

    A．The site was the first theater Shakespeare built．

    B．Romeo and Juliet was first put on in 1576．

    C．The theatre was pulled down to make place for a new one．

    D．The theatre rebuilt stands on the South Bank of the Thames．
