added wonder either something also from times back tall |
Did you ever think about how people got their surnames (family names)? Did you ever 【1】 who was the first person to have your surname?
Many modern British surnames go 【2】 to the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons who ruled England for 300 years, until 1066 AD. During those【3】 , people just had one name. To tell each person apart, the Anglo-Saxons added 【4】 the place a person came from or the job they did to their first name. For example, a lady called Agatha 【5】 the town of Blackburn could be called Agatha Blackburn.
The Vikings, on the other hand, 【6】 the name of a person’s father or mother. So Erik Jonsson was the son of a man named Jon. Many Viking men 【7】 had nicknames (綽號). These used to mean the opposite of what the person was actually like. For example, John Short could be a very 【8】 man, or Erik Wise could be a man who was not very clever!
So, next time someone tells you their surname, stop and think for a minute. It might tell you 【9】 about their ancestors(祖先) from centuries ago!
【答案】
【1】wonder
【2】back
【3】times
【4】either
【5】from
【6】added
【7】also
【8】tall
【9】something
【解析】
試題分析:本文敘述了姓的由來。許多現(xiàn)代英國人的姓可以追溯到公元前曾統(tǒng)治英國三百年的納維亞人和盎格魯-撒克遜人。為了把人們區(qū)分開,盎格魯-撒克遜人把一個人的出生地或所做的工作加在這個人的名字里;而納維亞人把一個人的父親或母親的名字加入名字里,而且許多人用名字里的反義詞作為綽號。因此,下一次你得到一個人的姓時,停下來想一想,或許從中可以知道幾世紀(jì)前他們祖先的一些信息。
【1】wonder 句意:你曾經(jīng)想知道誰是第一個擁有你的姓的人嗎?根據(jù)前句:Did you ever think about how people got their surnames (family names)?你曾經(jīng)考慮過人們怎樣得到他們的姓的嗎?可以推測出后句問“你是否想知道你的姓誰第一個用”,故填:wonder。
【2】back句意:許多現(xiàn)在英國人的姓可以回到曾經(jīng)統(tǒng)治英國的納維亞人和盎格魯-撒克遜人。由后句:until 1066 AD。可知講述的是以前的事,回到……:go back to,故填:back。
【3】times句意:在那個時代,人們只有一個名字。從句可以推測出本空填“時代”:times.
【4】either句意:盎格魯-撒克遜人或者把人的出生地或是他做的工作加在他的名字里。由or可以推測出“either…or…”,故填:either。
【5】from句意:比如,一個來自Blackburn鎮(zhèn)的女士Agatha可以被叫為Agatha Blackburn.根據(jù)上句意思:可以把一個人的出生地或所做的工作加入名字里,本句指地點(diǎn),故可以推測出填介詞from.
【6】added句意:在另一方面,加一個人的父親或母親的名字。由后句:So Erik Jonsson was the son of a man named Jon.可知是把父親的名字加到了兒子的名字里,故填:added.
【7】also句意:許多納維亞人也有綽號.前面講了“有名字”、“有姓”,故這里說“也”有綽號。用于句中的也:also。
【8】tall句意:比如說,John Short可能是一個很高的人。根據(jù)前句:These used to mean the opposite of what the person was actually like.這些過去曾是這個人實(shí)際情況相反的意思,short與tall含義相反,故填:tall。
【9】something句意:它可能告訴你幾世紀(jì)前他們的祖先的一些信息。根據(jù)短文,姓名的來源有一些特點(diǎn),故從姓上可以知道祖先的一些信息,故填:something.
