        Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their names?
    There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier
    for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual
    name because he wants to be different.
        People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some other
    famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary (普通的), or
    that have special sound. They chose the "new name" for themselves instead of the name their parents
    gave them when they were born.
        Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and
    want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he
    moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and
    Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their
    new country.
        In many countries, a woman changes her family name (姓) to her husband's after she gets married
    (结婚). But today, many women are keeping their own family names and not using their husbands'.
    Sometimes, women use their own names in some situations (情况) and their husband's in other situations.
    And some use both their own names and their husbands'.
    1. Hanna changes her name to Anne because "Anne" is ______ for people to remember.
    [     ]
    A. louder
    B. easier
    C. prettier
    D. harder
    2. Famous people want their new names to ______.
    [     ]
    A. have special sound
    B. be ordinary
    C. have no meaning (含意)
    D. be unknown
    3. Mr. Li uses his new name when he ______.
    [     ]
    A. stays with his family
    B. is at his job
    C. is among Chinese friends
    D. comes back to China
    4. What is the best title (标题) of this passage?
    [     ]
    A. Family Names.
    B. Women's Names.
    C. Changing Names.

    5. Which of the following is NOT true?
    [     ]
    A. Some women don't change their own family names after they get married today.
    B. Some women use their husbands' family names after they get married.
    C. Some women don't have family names after they get married.
    D. Some women use both their own names and their husbands'.

        Scientists (科学家) are trying to make the deserts (沙漠) into good land again. They want to bring water
    to the deserts, so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more
    of the earth is becoming desert all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the desert in time.
        Why is more and more land becoming desert? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing
    bad things to the earth.
        Some places on the earth don't get very much rain. But they still don't become deserts. This is because
    some green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very important to dry (干的) places.
    Plants don't let the hot sun make the earth even drier. Plants don't let the wind blow (吹) the dirt (土) away.
    When a little rain falls, the plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become a desert much more
    easily.
