四、阅读理解:共15小题；每题3分，共45分。阅读下列短文，然后根据短文的内容从每小题的四个选择项中选出最佳的一项。 A
Most English people have three names: a first name, a middle name and the family name. Their family name comes last. For example, my full name is Jim Allan Green. Green is my family name. My parents gave me both of my other names.
People don’t use their middle names very much. So “John Henry Brown” is usually
called “John Brown”. People never use Mr., Mrs. or Miss before their first names. So you can say John Brown, or Mr. Brown; but you should never say Mr. John. They use Mr., Mrs. or Miss with the family name but never with the first name.
Sometimes people ask me about my name. “When were you born, why did your parents call you Jim?” they ask. “Why did they choose that name?” The answer is they didn’t call me Jim. They called me James. James was the name of my grandfather. In England, people usually call me Jim for short. That’s because it is shorter and easier than James. 36. Most English people have _______ name(s). A. one B. two C. three D. four
【答案】C
【应试指导】事实细节题。由第一段第一句可知，大部分英国人的名字有三部分：名、中间名和姓。故选C。
37. _______ is Jim’s family name. A. Jim B. Green C. Allan D. James
【答案】B
【应试指导】事实细节题。由第一段第二、三、四句可知，英国人的姓在最后，若一个人叫Jim Allan Green，则Jim是他的名，Green是他的姓。故选B。 38. English people use Mr., Mrs. or Miss with _______. A. the family name B. the first name
C. the middle name D. the first name and the middle name
【答案】A
【应试指导】事实细节题。由第二段最后一句可知，Mr.，Mrs.或Miss常与姓连用而不与名连用。故选A。
39. The teacher’s name is Mary Joan Shut. Her students call her _______.

【应试指导】推理判断题。由第一段第二句可知，英国人的姓在最后；由第二段最后一句可知，Mr.，Mrs.或Miss常与姓连用。由此可以推断，Mary Joan Shut的姓为Shut，她的学生可以称呼她为Miss Shut。故选D。 B
Every year just after Christmas the January Sales start. All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks, they are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we don’t like crowds and in any case are short of money as we have to buy lots of Christmas presents.
Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself.
When I arrived at the station, my husband was not there. So I sat down in a nearby café to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. “Oh, dear!” I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but two televisions. We shall not be going to the sales again.
