What is a six-letter word that immediately comes to mind when you need some information on the Internet? You probably thought of Google. But Google wasn’t always the name of the famous search engine. In fact, the original name was BackRub!

BackRub was the name two graduate students gave to the new search engine they developed in 1996. They called it BackRub because the engine used backlinks to measure the popularity of Web sites. Later, they wanted a better name — a name that suggests huge quantities of data. They thought of the word googol. (A googol is a number followed by 100 zeros.) When they checked the Internet registry of names to see if googol was already taken, one of the students misspelled the word by mistake, and that’s how Google was born.

Google is just one example of a name change in the business world. Many other companies have decided to change their names or the names of their products. Here are some more examples:

Jerry Yang and David Filo, two young computer specialists, developed a guide to Internet content in 1994. They called it “Jerry and David’s Guide to World Wide Web.” But they soon realized that this wasn’t a very catchy name, so they searched through a dictionary and found a better one: “Yahoo.”

Sometimes companies change their names because of the popularity of one of their products. In 1962, a young runner named Phil Knight started a company called Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, Knight decided to design and manufacture his own brand of shoes. He named the shoes after the Greek goddess of victory — Nike. Nike shoes became so well known that Knight changed the name of the whole company to Nike.

1.According to the text, Google .

A. has been famous since 1996

B. is a result of a spelling mistake

C. means a number followed by 100 zeros

D. is the original name of the search engine

2.Jerry and David changed the guide’s name to Yahoo because the original name .

A. had been registeredB. had been forgotten

C. was not attractiveD. was too short

3.The company Nike got its name from .

A. its foundersB. its customers

C. its popular productsD. its advanced techniques

4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. The name changesB. The history of Google

“Long time no see” is a very interesting sentence．When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s email，I laughed．I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish．

Obviously，it is a word-by-word literal translation of the Chinese greetings with a ruled English grammar and structure! Later on，my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting．I was too thrilled to believe her．Her words could not convince me at all．So I did a research on google．com．To my surprise，there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see．” This sentence has been widely used in emails，letters，newspapers，movies，books，or any other possible places．Though it is sort of informal，it is part of the language that Americans use daily．Ironically，if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word，the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected．

Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence．Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies．In the 1930s，Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a world wide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens．Detective Chan likes to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius．“Long time no see” was his trademark．Soon after Charlie Chan，“Long time no see” became a popular phrase in the real world with thanks to the popularity of these movies．

Some scholars refer to America as a huge pot of stew．All kinds of culture are mixed in the stew together，and they change the color and taste of each other．American Chinese，though a minority ethnic（少数民族的成员） group in the United States，is also contributing some changes to the stew! Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed stew．

You can have some other examples than adoptions from Chinese，such as pizza from Italian，susi from Japanese，and déjà vu from French etc．There is a long list! Americans do not just simply borrow something from others．They will modify it and make it their own，so you would not be surprised to find a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant，or to buy a bottle of iced Chinese green tea with honey in a grocery store．Since Americans appreciate Chinese culture more and more nowadays，I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future．In this way the American stew keeps adding richness and flavor．

1.The writer himself felt surprised at ______．

A．the Chinglish expression “Long time no see”

B．“Long time no see” used as standard American English

C．so many literal translation of the expressions used in America

D．finding out Americans use the expression every day

A．detectives translate the phrase “Long time no see”

B．Hollywood made “Long time no see” popular

C．the huge pot of stew greatly affects all kinds of languages

D．cultures can be changed in the huge pot of stew

4.The main idea of the passage is that ______．

A．some Chinese expressions are introduced into English

B．you’ll not be surprised at a tofu in a restaurant in America

C．some American expressions can be used in China

D．American English keep being enriched from different cultures

5.According to the passage，which of the following statements is not true?

A．Informal language sometimes doesn’t go with grammar and structure．

B．Languages are always ruled by grammar and structure．

C．“Long time no see” has been used in at least four media mentioned in the passage．

D．There are four languages mentioned to be adopted in the American stew．

A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly，courteous and helpful most Americans were to them．To be fair，this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians，and should best be considered North American．There are，of course，exceptions．Small-minded officials，rude waiters，and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US．Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment．For a long period of time and in many parts of the country, a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence．

Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another．Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of diversion，and brought news of the outside world．The harsh realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of hospitality．

Someone traveling alone，if hungry，injured，or ill，often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest cabin or settlement．It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers．It reflected the harshness of daily life： if you didn‘t take in the stranger and take care of him，there was no one else who would．And someday，remember，you might be in the same situation．Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the weary traveler．Yet，the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US，especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist trails．“I was just traveling through，got talking with this American，and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner—amazing．” Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon，but are not always understood properly．

1.In the eyes of visitors from the outside world，___________．

A．rude taxi drivers are rarely seen in the US 

B．small-minded officials deserve a serious comment 

C．Canadians are not so friendly as their neighbors 

D．most Americans are ready to offer help 

2.It could be inferred from the last paragraph that ___________．

A．culture exercises an influence over social interrelationship 

B．courteous convention and individual interest are interrelated

C．various virtues manifest themselves exclusively among friends 

D．social interrelationships equal the complex set of cultural conventions 

3.Families in frontier settlements used to entertain strangers ___________．

A．to improve their hard life 

B．in view of their long-distance travel 

C．to add some flavor to their own daily life 

D．out of a charitable impulse 

4.The tradition of hospitality to strangers ___________．

A．tends to be superficial and artificial 

B．is generally well kept up in the united States 

C．is always understood properly 

D．has something to do with the busy tourist trails 

5.What’s the author’s attitudes toward the American‘s friendliness？ 

A．Favorable． B．Unfavorable．

C．Indifferent． D．Neutral．

[1]E-mail may be the most important, unique method for communicating and developing relationships since the telephone．First of all, ____________．Anyone who can use a word processor can also write an e-mail message without difficulty．Secondly, it saves time and money．It costs nothing more than your time．No paper expense, no postage and no envelope expense．People also find it familiar and safe because it is similar in many respects to writing letters but avoids the annoyances of addressing envelopes, licking stamps, and trips to the mailbox．

[2] Of all the methods for developing relationships on the Internet, e-mail is the most common and perhaps the most powerful．Although friendships and romances may indeed begin in chat rooms, instant messages, blogs, or other online tools improve greatly by becoming more effectively visual and auditory（听觉的）, as in video teleconferencing, e-mail will not disappear．Many people will prefer it because it is a non-visual and non-auditory form of communication．After all, we don’t see people rushing out to buy video equipment to add it to their telephone．

The 16 operations W．Mitchell received after the motorcycle accident burned more than 65％ of his body at age 46 left him unable to pick up a fork，dial a telephone or go to the bathroom without help．But Mitchell never believed he was defeated．“I am in charge of my own spaoeship,” he said．“It’s my up，my down．I could choose to see this situation as a setback or afstarting point．”
