2、Why People Use Pseudonyms (假名字)?
You can＇t choose the name you are given at birth, but in many countries you can change it legally when you reach adulthood. Of course, most people never change their names even if they feel unhappy about them. However some people do take this course of action－particularly artists! What makes an artist want to change their name? Sometimes it＇s for purely personal reasons, such as the Nobel Prize winning poet from Chile, Neftalf Reyes. He didn＇t want his father to know he was writing poetry, so he changed his name to Pablo Neruda when he was a young man. At other times the reason may appear strange, take the case of the Portuguese poet Femando Pessoa, who wrote under 75 different names. The reason? "When I use a different name, I always write in a different way," he explained. In most cases, ____ , people change their names for social, historical, political, or cultural reasons. Here are some of the most common: reason. The person＇s real name is just too long and difficult to remember. Let＇s be honest, Madonna Louise Ciccone is not as easy to remember as just plain Madonna. And short names are much easier to remember: William Bradley became Brad Pitt and Edson Arantes do Nascimento became Pele.
Sometimes names are changed for marketing purposes. For example, if a name sounds too foreign, it may be changed to something that is more recognizable in a market. So in the film world, Ramon Estsvez adopted the name Martin Sheen. Or maybe the artist＇s real name doesn＇t sound attractive－Chad Everett does sound a lot better than Raymond Cramton.
Artists sometimes choose the name of someone they admire. Robert Zimmerman changed his name to Boo Dylan because of his admiration for the Welsh poet, Dylan Thomas.
Another reason may be practical: in the past, women found it very difficult to get published. To avoid this situation, they sometimes gave themselves men＇s names, so the English author Mary Ann Evans became George Eliot, and she did get her books published!

4、Sharing Silence
Deaf teenagers Orlando Chavez and German Resendiz have become friends since kindergarten (幼儿园). Together the two boys, who go to Escondido High School in California, have had the difficult job of learning in schools where the majority of the students can speak and hear.
Orlando lost his hearing at the age of one. German was borned deaf, and his parents moved from Mexico to find a school where he could learn sign language. He met Orlando on their first day of kindergarten.
"We were in a special class with about 25 other deaf kids," German remembers. "Before then, I didn＇t know I was deaf and I was different."
"Being young and deaf in regular classes was very hard," signs Orlando. "The other kids didn＇t understand us and we didn＇t understand them. But we＇ve all grown up together, and today, I＇m popular because I＇m deaf. Kids try hard to communicate with me."
Some things are very difficult for the two boys. "We can＇t talk on the phone. so if we need help, we can＇t call an emergency service," German signs. "And we can＇t order food in a drive - thru."
Despite their difficulties, the two boys have found work putting food in bags at a local supermarket. They got their jobs through a "workability" program designed for teenagers from local schools with different types of learning disabilities.
German has worked in the supermarket since August, and Orlando started in November.
"The other people who work here have been very nice to us," Orlando signs. "They even sign sometimes. At first, we were nervous, but we＇ve learned a lot and we＇re getting better.

5、A Country＇s Standard of Living
The "standard of living" of any country means the average person＇s share of the goods and services the country produces. A country＇s standard of living, therefore, depends first on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in this sense is not money, for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy: "goods such as food and clothing", and "services" such as transport and entertainment.
A country＇s capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors most of ____ have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a country＇s natural resources. Some region of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have fertile (肥沃的) soil and a favorable climate, other regions possess none of them.
Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use, China is perhaps as rich as the USA in natural resources, but suffered for many years from civil and external wars, For this and other reasons it was unable to develop her resources. Sound and stable political conditions, and freedom from foreign invasions, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily, to produce more wealth than other country.
A country＇s standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its own borders, but also upon what is directly produced through international trade. For example, Britain＇s wealth in foodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had to depend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplus (剩余的) manufactured goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products which would otherwise be lacking. A country＇s wealth is, therefore, much influenced by its manufacturing capacity, providing that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures.
