helpful. When you read, you can not only learn some new words, but also you can learn how to use these
English words. When you read, it gives you a good example for writing. Good reading tips.
    Try to read at the right level (水平). Read something that you can (more or less) understand. If you need to
stop every three words to use a dictionary, it is not interesting.

waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. "And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying
under my car," Leila explained. "I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this wasf dangerous; they

根据短文内容,完成下面表格。     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, 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 to her husband"s after she gets married. But today,
many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husband"s. Sometimes, women use their
own name in some situations (情况) and their husband"s in other situations. And some use both their own name
and their husband"s.
