听力原文:American names are written and spoken with tile given name first real the family

听力原文: American names are written and spoken with tile given name first real the family name last. So John Smith's family name is Smith, not John.

In a formal setting, address men as "Mister", married women as "Misses", mad unmarried women as "Miss". These days many women prefer to be addressed using the abbreviations "Ms. ", pronounced "miz". If the person has an M.D. or Ph.D., they will often be addressed as "Doctor". Faculty are addressed as "Professor".

In an informal situation, Americans will introduce each other by their first name, without titles, and occasionally by just their last name. If you are introduced to somebody by their first name, you can address him or her by their first name the next time you meet. The only exception would be for someone who holds an important position, such as the university president. Unless they tell you otherwise, faculty should be addressed using their title and last name.

When in doubt, use tile formal manner of address, since it is better to make mistakes on the side of formality. It is always appropriate to ask how they prefer to be addressed.

Children should always address adults in the formal fashion, using their rifle and last name.

(23)

A.Family name first, given name last.

B.Given name first, family name last.

C.Middle name first, family name last.

D.Given name first, middle name last.

听力原文:Weather scientists call hurricanes by names to make clear which storm they are ta

听力原文: Weather scientists call hurricanes by names to make clear which storm they are talking about. An Australian weather scientist began giving women's names to storms before the end of the nineteenth century. Weather scientists used the names of their girlfriends or wives for storms during World War Two. (33) The United States weather service started officially using women's names for storms in nineteen fifty-three. In nineteen seventy-eight, it began including men's names as well.

(34) Today, scientists make up lists of names years in advance, They agree on them at meetings of the concerned organization. The lists include both American and international names.

The United States National Hurricane Center near Miami, Florida, watches for the development of storms. It gives a name to each one that reaches a wind speed of sixty-two kilometers an hour. A different list of names is used each year. The first name begins with the letter "A". The second begins with "B" and so on. The same list will not be used again for at least six years. The names of storms that have caused extremely severe damage may be retired at the request of the country that was affected. That name will not be used again for at least ten years. (35) This is done to avoid legal problems or confusion. It may be reasonable that the United States asks that the name Katrina be retired.

(34)

A.Before 19th century

B.During World War Two

C.In 1978.

D.In 1953.
