Most English people have three names: a first name, a middle name and the family name. Their family name comes last. For example, my full name is Jim Alan Green. Green is my family name. People dont use their middle names very much. So “John Henry Brown” is usually called “John Brown”. People never use Mr., Mrs. or Miss before their first names. So you can say John Brown, or Mr. Brown; but you should never say Mr. John. They use Mr., Mrs. or Miss with the family name but never with the first name. Everyone has a family name. But what does it mean(含义)? First, some family names come from the place(地点) of their homes. If a man lives on or near(在附近) a hill, his family name may be Hill. In England, peoples family name may be Wood, Lake, because they live near the woods (树林)or lakes(湖泊). Second, family names come from a mans job(工作). If a man is a cook（厨师）, his family name may be Cook.30 . In England, last name is after _.A. family name B. first name C. full name31 . If a mans family name is Lake, where could he live?A. Near a lake. B. Near a hill. C. Near the woods.32 . What can we call Frank Alan Smith?A. Frank. B. Mr. Frank. C. Mr. Alan33 . In the name “Bob Dale Brown”, which(哪个) is the Middle name?A. Bob. B. Dale. C. Brown.34 . Which is right according to(根据) the passage(文章)？A. English people have only two names.B. In England, family names may come from a mans job.C. English people use middle names much.“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a persons life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said.National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity (机会) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organizations expectations (期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.The following tips can help if you have some of these worries. Start out slowly, dont add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someones life. Choose an organization with the same interests and common values. Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked. Work with aveteranvolunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organizations expectations. Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them. Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect.

No matter (无论) what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value (价值).
