A long time ago men hunted for their food. Often they killed wild animals, birds or fish. How did they kill the beasts? They used rocks and wooden sticks, sometimes they fought with their own hands and bodies.
Later on, people began fighting each other. Everyone wanted more food and mom land. They made arrows from sticks, they also made spears from stones. Then somebody invented the gun. Soldiers were taught how to shoot and kill enemy soldiers. Great wars were fought and many people died.
A famous general cried as he looked at one battle field. His soldiers were fighting well, but he felt very sad. He turned to his men and said, “My soldiers, I am going to ask you a question. The one who gives the best answer will receive a medal . The question is this: Who is the strongest power in the world?”
Four soldiers raised their hands. They wanted to answer the general's question. The general asked the first soldier to speak.
“Sir.” said the young man, “I think my gun is the strongest power. It can kill a person or an animal from a great distance.” “Thank you. ”said the general, “Next. ” He pointed to the man who was his best soldier.
“A soldier is stronger. ” said the second man, “He must shoot the gun and aim well. A gun's power comes from the way it is used.”
The third soldier thought he had the, best answer of all . “No, sir, ” he said, “our general is the strongest power. He gives the orders for his soldiers to shoot their guns.”

It was four o'clock when we left Micatlan,and we traveled quickly until it became almost completely dark.It was our intention to return to our general quarters in Atlacomulco that night.We had a long journey ahead of us,especially because it had been decided there was no way we would try to cross the ravines again at night,since they were considered far too dangerous.Futhermore,an eclipse of the moon was expected,and,in fact,while we were crossing an open field,the moon appeared on the horizon,half in shadow,a rare and beautiful sight.
After a few hours of riding,we suddenly realized that we had lost our way,and worse still,had no way of finding it again.Night had fallen and there was not a single hut in sight,only great plains and mountains and the lowing of distant bulls all around us.We continued on ahead,trusting in luck,though it was difficult to say where she had brought us.By good fortune,our advance riders ran into two Indians,a man and a boy,who agreed to guide us their village and no further.
After an interminable and exhausting road,which we traveled at a brisk trot,the barking of several dogs announced an Indian village.In the dying light,we could just make out cane huts,firmly situated between the banana trees,with fenced gardens in front of each one.Our convoy stopped in front of one particular hut,a kind of inn or shop for alcohol,where a naked goblin-like figure,the ideal husband for a witch,was serving cheap brandy to the Indians,most of whom were already drunk.
We dismounted and threw ourselves to the ground,too tired to even think.Someone found us,God knows how,a cup of dreadful hot chocolate.We began to realize that we were completely lost,and so it was agreed to give up our attempt to reach Atlacomulco that night.Instead,we should head for the village of “E1 Puente”,where our guides know a Spanish family,made up of several unmarried brothers,who,without any doubt,would be delighted to offer us a safe refuge for the rest of the night.We remounted and began our journey,a little restored after the pause in our journey and the dreadful hot chocolate.
Where did we travel to?
A.El Puente. B.The cane huts. C.Atlacomulco. D.An Indian Village.
When we traveled at night_________.
A.there was a good guide leading us
B.there was a full moon in the sky
C.we could hardly see anything
D.we could see everything around clearly
When we lost our way we believed that_________.
A.we should stay where we were for rescue
B.we should go on to seek after our fortune
C.we should go back where we started
D.we should ask the Indians for help
When we reached the inn-like hut_________.
A.someone served alcohol and hot chocolate at once
B.we had a good sleep
C.we had a good drink
D.we were too exhausted to ask for anything

What’s in a name? Well, apparently, our general happiness. Psychologists say that what we are called has a direct connection with our well-being (幸福). Those called Judy and Joshua are the happiest, while Lynn or Ben is likely to be the unhappiest, according to research. Psychologist Dr David Holmes found that this might due to the association(聯(lián)想)that others made with the name. Hearing the name Judy may make them think of actress Judi Dench or TV presenter Judy Finnigan, people who are seen as good natured and happy. On the other hand, people think Paulines are unhappy because of the character Pauline Fowler from the TV programme East Enders. The research claims that this association influences the person with the name and so their personality becomes shaped to fit it. Dr David Holmes said, "This also has some relation with the original meaning of the name. For example, the original meaning of Judy is 'praised’." Certain names also work well in certain aspects of life. In the workplace Richard and Judy are happiest, while those called Ruth and Carly are happiest in relationships. At the other end of the scale the unhappiest workers are Stuart and Liz, with the unhappiest in relationships being Frank and Harriet. Dr Holmes said, "The relation we have with certain names, particularly important namesakes(同名者), also shapes how we see ourselves and so may have an effect on our confidence. Names are like product brands in having a powerful effect on attitudes and should therefore be chosen with care." "Other names are connected with being brave, outgoing or serious. Therefore, many celebrities change their names to ones which reflect these characteristics. This, in turn, influences parents when they choose names for their babies," said Dr Holmes, "however, names connected with ordinary people are seldom chosen for their babies".
【小題1】Which of the following is NOT a reason why Judy is a good name?
【小題2】A．The association people make with it. B．Its original meaning. C．The high number of famous people who are called Judy. D．The personalities of famous Judys. According to the passage, which of the following names are better?
【小題3】A．Ruth and Joshua. B．Pauline and Frank. C．Richard and Stuart. D．Joshua and Ben. The reason why names should be chosen carefully is that___________.
【小題4】A．good names can make us succeed. B．names can affect how we see ourselves C．names can tell us what we should do D．good names can show others who we are The author may continue the passage with__________.
【小題5】A．names and product brands B．famous people’s names C．parents ‘choices of baby names D．names and personality What’s the main idea of this passage? A．How to choose a good name for babies. B．How to achieve success by changing a good name. C．The relation between names and success. D．The relation between names and happiness.
