[1]Usually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer. But there is one question that has millions of correct answers. That question is “What's your name？”. Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct. Have you ever wondered about people's names? Where do they come from? What do they mean?
[2]People's first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used. Some parents ___________________. A boy could be named George Washington Smith；a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.
[3]Some people give their children names that mean good things. Clara means “bright”； Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”；Donald means “world ruler”； Leonard means “as brave as a lion”．
[4]The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names. A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a brook (小溪); someone who was called Longstreet probably Lived on a long, paved road. The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.
[5]Other early surnames came from people's occupations. The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village. Some other occupational names are：Carter—a person who owned or drove a cart；Potter—a person who made pots and pans. The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbours in their native village. The Carpenter's greatgreatgreatgrandfather probably built houses and furniture.
[6]Sometimes_people_were_known_for_the_colour_of_their_hair_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 was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.
[7]Some family names were made by adding something to the father's name. Englishspeaking people added s or son. The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family's ancestor was Robert. Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O. Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonneils and the O'Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.

小题1:信息归纳题。文章首段用设问的方式提出问题“Where do they come from? What do they mean?
”，然后再下文中一一进行介绍，由此可知文章最好的标题应该是The origin and meaning(s) of names.
小题2:信息判断题。根据下文A boy could be named George Washington Smith；a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.可知孩子用了美国总统乔治华盛顿和海伦凯勒的名字，他们都是名人，由此判断家长会给孩子取名人的名字，所以此空填choose the name of a wellknown person。
小题3:信息查找题。根据文章第五段Potter—a person who made pots and pans. 可知此空填They most probably made pots and pans.
小题4:信息查找题。根据文章三、四、五段的首句可以判断文中涉及到的姓名的三个方面分别是(1) Places where people lived.(2) Talents that people possessed.(3) People's occupations.
小题5:有时人们因为他们头发的颜色或肤色，或者他们的高矮胖瘦或特殊的才能而为大家所熟知。
