When former American President Bill Clinton traveled to South Korea to visit President Kim Young Sam, he repeatedly referred to the Korean president¡¯s wife as Mrs. Kim. By mistake, President Clinton¡¯s advisers thought that Koreans have the same naming customs as the Japanese. Clinton had not been told that, in Korea, wives keep their family names. President Kim Young Sam¡¯s wife was named Sohm Myong Suk. Therefore, she should be addressed (³Æν) as Mrs. Sohm.
President Clinton arrived in Korea directly after leaving Japan and had not changed his culture gears. His failure to follow Korean customs gave the impression that Korea was not as important to him as Japan.
In addition to Koreans some Asian husbands and wives do not share the same family names. This practice often puzzles English-speaking teachers when talking with a pupil¡¯s parents. They become puzzled about the student¡¯s correct last name. Placing the family name first is common among a number of Asian cultures.
Mexican naming customs are different as well. When a woman marries, she keeps her family name and adds her husband¡¯s name after the word ¡°de¡±, which means ¡°of¡±. This affects how they fill in forms in the United States. When requested to fill in a middle name, they generally write the father¡¯s family name. But Mexicans are addressed by the family name of the mother. This often causes puzzlement.
Here are a few ways to deal with such difficult situations: don¡¯t always think that a married woman uses her husband¡¯s last name. Remember that in many Asian cultures, the order of first and last names is reversed (µßµ¹). Ask which name a person would prefer to use. If the name is difficult to pronounce, admit it, and ask the person to help you say it correctly.

It is a pleasure for me to write this letter to tell how much
I enjoyed my stay in your whole family last week. This was my
first visit to a English family. At first, I was worried about my
poor English. And when I saw your wife and children waiting for
me with warm smile of welcome on their faces. I immediately knew 
that everything would be all right. There are many more happy
memories of a week that I will keep with me forever. I particularly
enjoyed driving through the countryside with you and saw the 
changing colors of the leaves on the trees. I also like the 
fishing trip. It was such much fun. 		1. _____

     During my elementary school years, I used to compare my mom with my best friend Tiffany's mom.
     Tiffany's mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food.
Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn't give me much
pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was annoyed with her.
     Whenever I didn't get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany's mom would give her
that! I wish she were my mom. Every time, my mom would calmly say "Poor Tiffany". I couldn't
understand her. "She shouldn't be feeling sorry for Tiffany!" I thought, "She should be feeling sorry for
me."
     One day, I couldn't help saying to Mom, "Poor Tiffany? Lucky Tiffany! She gets everything she
wants! Why do you feel sorry for her?" I burst into tears.
     My mom sat down next to me and said softly, "Yes, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you
a lesson that she will never be taught."
     I looked up at her, "What are you talking about?"
     Mom said with care, "One day she will really want something. Maybe she'll find out that she can't
have it. Her mother won't always be around to give her money, and what's more, money can't buy
everything."
     She continued, "I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want. You'll
know how to look for bargains and save money, but she won't. You'll understand that you need to
work hard to get the things that you want but she won't. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she'll wake
up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you've got. Life lessons are more
important than modern clothes and delicious food."
     It took some time, but I eventually understood my mom's words. Now I am a happy and successful
woman.

    Children become more generous as they get older, learning the principles of equality
by the age of eight. That may not be too surprising to anyone who has kids.
    Humans are born with a sense of fairness that most other animals seem not to share,
but it's not been clear exactly when this concept starts to develop.
    Dr. Alva Zhao and her colleagues conducted a series of tests to measure just how
much children care about equality at different ages. In three different versions of a game,
children were asked to choose between two ways of sharing a number of sweets with
themselves and an unfamiliar partner. They could choose, for example, between one for
me and one for you, or just having one for themselves.
    At the age of three, children were "almost completely selfish", says Zhao.
    They refused to give sweets away even if it made no difference to themselves. But by
the age of eight, children generally preferred the fair option, sharing a prize equally rather
than keeping it all to themselves.
    Several other factors influenced how fair the children were. The team found that children
without brothers or sisters were 28% more likely to share than children with brothers or
sisters. On the other hand, the youngest children in a family were 17% less willing to share
than children who had only younger brother or sister.
    In addition, if children knew that their partner was from the same playgroup or school,
they were more concerned about being fair. This suggests that being nice to people you
know is something that develops a sense of equality.
1. The main idea of the first paragraph is _____.
[     ]
A. parents know clearly when their kids are more willing to share
B. the kids' willingness of sharing is learned from their family
C. the older the kids are,the more selfish they will become
D. kids become more generous when they reach a certain age
2. The tests conducted by Dr. Alva Zhao and her colleagues were aimed at _____.
[     ]
A. how kids develop a quality of fairness in games
B. children's awareness of equality at different ages
C. the reasons why children care about equality
D. children's attitudes towards other partners
3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
[     ]
A. Children under three know little about being fair.
B. Children above eight years old become less selfish.
C. Children with brothers or sisters tend to be more generous.
D. The youngest child in a family tends to be less generous.
4. We can learn that children care more about equality while with _____.
[     ]
A. unknown people
B. nice people
C. familiar people
D. fair people

                                                               Community College
     Here I am, a senior. After four years of high school, I have learned a lot of lessons. Some were
good and valuable. And I have also learned others just from growing up and being around other
teenagers.
     I started senior year with a 1.5 GPA (£½grade point averageƽ¾ù·Ö,Ï൱ÓÚ65%), which is not
even close to what I am capable of. The last three years I fooled around and cut lots of classes. Now,
I can easily say that it is the only thing in life that I regret. Next year I will watch most of my friends go
to college while I lost that chance. This does not mean that I am giving up on my dreams, but when I
started high school, my goal was to get great grades and go to a competitive college.
     At first I blamed the people around me for my bad experiences, but I've learned that it's my fault
when bad things happen. In the last three years I realized that I am the only one in control of myself.
While making my teachers and my peers the excuse for not wanting to go to class, I developed a huge
lying problem.
     If I could start over, I would in a heartbeat, but I can't, so instead of beating myself up, I try talking
to younger teenagers about the importance of doing well in school by explaining the situation I got myself
into. Community college looks like a great opportunity. I am looking forward to taking many credits and
receiving good grades. I see community college as a year to turn my life around. It's my ticket out of here
to wherever I want to go. I have another chance to make my future and I've promised myself I won't
mess up.
     We need to study history so we won't repeat our past; I've studied my personal history, and will
avoid my mistakes in the future. I am ready for the next task in life, the only question is, is it ready for
me?
