The Mississippi
The Mississippi is a romantic river whose relationship with man goes back beyond its discovery by the Spaniards in the 16th century.Indians used the river as a highway and as a source of food.and it was they who gave it its name“misi-sipi”,meaning“river of many fishes”.European explorers called it the Mississippi.Today, it is often called“Old Man River”.
45 .Flowing from north to south,it gathers many waters on its way.You will easily understand why it is called“Old Man River”,or the“Father of Waters”.A lot of early setters built their homes on the land along its waters.The Mississippi was and is the old man of all American people,too
46 .In 1927 the Mississippi flooded 26 thousand acres,sweeping away farms,towns,everything in its path.In 1938 its floods drowned or killed 200 people and made millions homeless.Today the river has largely been controlled.
47 .Pioneers who first reached its banks wondered not only where it went,but what lay beyond.In 1764 the French founded a city on the right bank of the river, and named it after their king,Louis XV.This city, named St Louis,became the jumping-off place for the adventurous men and women who opened up the Great Plains,and the way to the Far West.
48 .One of the saddest memories may be that of the blacks who were carried down the river and sold as slaves.The river also remembers that their sobbing and crying voices once passed over its waters.
49 .Today, the river is still an important part of the American economy.Goods are carried up and down the river to get to other parts of the country and the world.

Remembering names is an important social skill.Here are some ways to master it.
小题1:When you hear a person’s name and want to remember it, repeat it.Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips.You could also say the name again in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.
小题2:You can let other people help you remember their names.After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you.Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.
小题3:Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed.Most of them will feel sympathy if you say “I’m working to remember names better.Yours is right on the tip of my tongue.What is it again?”
小题4: When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names.Free yourself from remembering every one.Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names.Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names.Last names can come later.
小题5: Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes.Sometimes just a few people show up on time.There are fewer names for you to remember.And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others — an automatic review for you.
