If so, what does it say about the area and the people who live there? Many cities are recognized across the world by their unofficial titles. New York is the Big Apple, London is the Big Smoke, and Los Angles is famously called La La Land.Now, as part of English Language Day on Wednesday, Britains national mapping agency, Ordnance Survey, and the British linguistics charity (语言学慈善机构) , the English Project, are launching an interactive project which aims to identify the nicknames people use in their daily lives for local places.“The name that people create for a place forms an emotional connection,” explains Winchester Universitys Professor Bill Lucas, a supporter of the English Project. “So Basingstoke becomes Amazingstoke, Swindon is known as Swindump and Padstow, hometown of Chef Rick Stein, is nicknamed Padstein.”Basingstoke is a town in central England. The local nickname, Amaxingstoke, shows that affection that locals seem to have for the area. Swindon, on the other hand, is sometimes called Swindump, showing that some people think its a dump (垃圾场). Stanford Le Hope in Essex is called Stanford No Hope by locals. And Padstow in Cornwall is so closely connected with the local famous person Rick Stein that its become known as Padstein.Since launching the online survey last week, the creators have already received 3,000 alternative titles for places and landmarks.There is a practical side to the project. Glen Hart, Ordnance Surveys head of research, says the information could be very helpful to the emergency services. For example, “ By having the most complete set of nicknames we could help the emergency services quickly locate the right place, and maybe even save lives,” he says. 21 Whats the passage mainly about ?ASome stories about nicknames for places.BOrganizations collect official place names.CPeople have a great affection for their cities.DA survey of the nickname for places.22Unlike the town Basingstoke, Swindon is a place that_.Aseems unpleasant to some people Battracts a lot of touristsChas few people living there Dhas a long history23What does Glen Hart think of the project?AIt proves that most nicknames are interesting.BIt is very helpful to the emergency services.CIt may help increase the number of nicknames.DIt has helped prevent deaths from happening.BYou feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs, then its likely you will burn out, or feel upset. When you take and take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call being values and having values. Your being values are the personalities of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a promise to live by. An example of some being values are: kind, loving, generous, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose.Your having values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement, support, being valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.When you make a promise to live by your being values, it becomes easier to make conscious (慎重的) choices rather than reactionary (反动的) ones. If your usual pattern is to talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to bethis is the key to personal power.When you choose to act on your values, you will not only feel good about yourself, but also strengthen your chosen beliefs. Over time, acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you.24. The main purpose of this passage is to .A. persuade the readers to make a promiseB. explain to the readers what personal values areC. inform the readers how to be truly happyD. instruct the readers how to make wise choices25. According to the text, living by your being values, you would .A. gain a lot of power B. form positive personalityC. seek all human virtues D. fill your own needs26. The underlined word void in Paragraph l means .A. a feeling of emptiness B. an absence of ones mindC. a break of continuity D. a state of confusion27. What can be inferred from the text?A. Having values are better than being values.B. A calm person does not choose to complain.C. The way other people think of you decides who you are.D. A responsible person does not care about financial security.第三节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。My best friend Eva and I are different in many ways, but we have one important thing in common we love to travel.
