Mrs Sharp, a large, red-faced woman in her late sixties, has lived in Greenleas, a 'new town' in the countryside outside London, since 1958. Before that she lived in Bethnal Green, an area of inner London. She was moved to Greenleas by the local authorities when her old house was demolished (拆除).
She came from a large family with six girls and two boys, and she grew up among brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, grandparents and cousins. When she married her boyfriend from school at eighteen, they went on living with her parents, and her first child was brought up more by her mother than by herself, because she always worked.
As the family grew, they moved out of their parents' house to a flat. It was in the next street, and their life was still that of the extended family. "All my family used to live around Denby Street," said Mrs Sharp, "and we were always in and out of each other's houses." When she went to the shops, she used to call in on her mother to see if she wanted anything. Every day she would visit one sister or another and see a nephew or niece at the corner shop or in the market.
"You always knew 90% of the people you saw in the street every day, either they were related to you or you were at school with them," she said.
When her babies were born (she had two sons and a daughter), she said, "All my sisters and neighbours would help - they used to come and make a cup of tea, or help in some other way." And every Saturday night there was a family party. It was at Mrs Sharp's mother's house. "Of course we all know each other very well. You have to learn to get on with each other. I had one neighbour who was always poking(管闲事) her nose into our business. She was forever asking questions and gossiping (拨弄是非). But you had to put up with everyone, whatever they were like."
1)、Mrs. Sharp had to move to Greenleas because she had to work there.
A.T
B.F
2)、When she got married, she lived together with her parents all the time.
A.T
B.F
3)、She knew so many people because they were either her relatives or schoolmates.
A.T
B.F
4)、The sentence "I had one neighbour who was always poking her nose into our business." in the last Para. means I had one neighbour who always showed her interests in our private affairs.
A.T
B.F
5)、This passage mainly deals with what the extended family is like.
A.T
B.F

根据下面材料，回答 97～101 题
Ever since the Puritans named their babies Fly-Fornication, America has been a land of naming freedom and self-expression. While other governments impose restrictions-German parents have to choose a name that clearly indicates the gender of the child and is not a surname, and the French, among others, forbid names that might expose a child to mockery-in the United States, anything goes. ①
In 1950, nearly 30 percent of all babies were given one of the top ten names, a proportion that's now shrunk to less than 10 percent. Popular baby names today include locales like Brooklyn and London； surnames as given names that summon images of Waspy dynasties, such as Morgan and Whitney； and brand names of upscale products.
A century ago, immigrants often changed their names as a first step toward assimilation, with Bridgets morphing into Bettys and Giovannis naming their sons plain John. Now parents are going back to their ethnic roots for inspiration. With assimilation no longer the issue, the classic Italian name Giovanni is close to being in the top 100 names for boys, and Gianna has already made it into the top 100 names for girls.
Giving your child an ethnically distinct name can be a double-edged sword. “I grew up hating my name，”says Orly Telisman，35, named for her grandfather Orrin．But in college, she discovered an unexpected advantage: Orly comes from the Hebrew word for light. “Explaining my name gave me a way to say, I'm Jewish，which culturally and spiritually means a lot to me,” she says. “To appreciate my name, I had to grow into my own skin.”
The search for a name that screams “ I'm unique!” leads some parents to invent names or play with traditional spelling. Besides the classic Irish Aidan in the Social Security list of top 1,000 names, for example，there are also Aiden, Ayden, Aden, Adan，Aaden，Aydan，and Aedan．
Sometimes bucking the latest trends means choosing something that others might see as decidedly out of style．Lee Krasny,34,named her now-two-year-old daughter Dorothy，after the girl's maternal great-grandmother. “We struggled for a long time with whether to name her Dorothy or just use the D and select a modern-sounding name, but it seemed most authentic to go straight up.”
A downside of a “creative” name is that it may come with baggage, not all of it positive. “I always felt I was prejudged by my name,” says Gestin Skaggs, 43, whose parents named her for a word they heard in a German love song. “I've either had to overcome some stereotype of a short, fat German man or live up to an expectation that I'm a really wild and creative thinker. ② People ascribe all kinds of personality traits to me that I don't have. ”
But that's a small price to pay, say the teens with offbeat names we spoke with．“I've met a lot of people because of my name. They hear it and think it's cool,” says Calypso Gibaldi，15, named by her ocean-loving father for Jacques Cousteau's boat. “If my name was Jane, I'd be average like everyone else.”
第 97 题 Which of the following statements about names is NOT mentioned in the passage？
[A] Some governments forbid names that may be laughed at.
[B] American parents are allowed to name their children at will.
[C] A surname can not be used to name a child in Germany.
[D] French parents are much careful about choosing a name for their children.
The magazine cover showing an attractive mother holding a cute baby is hardly the only Madonna-and-child image on newsstands this week. There are also stories about newly adoptiveand newly singlemom Sandra Bullock, as well as the usual "Jennifer Aniston is pregnant" news. Practically every week features at least one celebrity mom, or mom-to-be, smiling on the newsstands.
In a society that so persistently celebrates procreation, is it any wonder that admitting you regret having children is equivalent to admitting you support kitten-killing？ It doesn't seem quite fair, then, to compare the regrets of parents to the regrets of the childless. Unhappy parents rarely are provoked to wonder if they shouldn't have had kids, but unhappy childless folks are bothered with the message that children are the single most important thing in the world: obviously their misery must be a direct result of the gaping baby-size holes in their lives.
Of course, the image of parenthood that celebrity magazines like Us Weekly and People present is hugely unrealistic, especially when the parents are single mothers like Bullock. According to several studies concluding that parents are less happy than childless couples, single parents are the least happy of all. No shock there, considering how much work it is to raise a kid without a partner to lean on; yet to hear Sandra and Britney tell it, raising a kid on their "own" (read; with round-the-clock help) is a piece of cake.
It's hard to imagine that many people are dumb enough to want children just because Reese and Angelina make it look so glamorous; most adults understand that a baby is not a haircut. But it's interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of stress-free, happiness-enhancing parenthood aren't in some small, subconscious way contributing to our own dissatisfactions with the actual experience, in the same way that a small part of us hoped getting " the Rachel" might make us look just a little bit like Jennifer Aniston.
Jennifer Senior suggests in her article that raising a child can bring______.
A．temporary delight.
B．enjoyment in progress.
C．happiness in retrospect.
D．lasting reward.
