In early times, when people lived in small villages, surnames were
11、 unnecessary. Everyone knew everyone else in the village and there were rarely visitors from outside. If someone referred to Stephen or Hilda, everyone knew at once who it was since there was only one Stephen or one Hilda in the village. But as time went on, tiny villages became big ones. Then there
12、 might be several Stephens and several Hildas in the same place. It then became necessary to tell one from another. How was this done? One way of telling one Stephen from another was by adding the name of his trade. As a result, there might be Stephen the miller, Stephen the cook, Stephen the weaver
13、 and Stephen the shepherd. After a time these would be shortened to Stephen Miller, Stephen Cook, Stephen Weaver, etc., which gradually came into being. Before long, the same names were given to the mens children at birth and their wives took the same surnames on marriage. Another way of distinguish
14、ing men with the same name was to refer to them by the name of the place where they lived. If three men were all called John, one might be referred to as John in the field, another as John in the woods, and the third as John under the hill. In this way surnames such as Field, Wood, Hill, Pond and Sh
15、ore came into use. 第 5页(共 8页) Another important way of distinguishing men with the same name was to say whose sons they were. Of three men with the name of Tom, one might be called Tom the son of John, another Tom the son of William, and the third Tom the son of Richard. This practice gradually prod
16、uced common surnames such as Johnson, Richardson, Robinson, Jackson and Wilson. Still another way of distinguishing men was to give them nicknames according to the sort of person they were. Thus a very small man might be called John the small man. A very short one might come to be known as Stephen t
17、he short man. This gave rise to many surnames such as Short, Small, Long, White, Wise, Strong and Bright. 第 6页(共 8页) 一、单词拼写 1.landscape 2.generous 3.butter 4.amount 5.gallery 二、二、单句语法填空 1.charged 2.announcement 3.approached 4.ensure 5.eagerness 三、阅读理解 1.A细节理解题。根据中国哈尔滨介绍中的“when massive frozen structu
