The Origins of Famous BrandsOur lives are full of brand names and trademarked products that we use every day. Although many brand names are simple acronyms(首字母缩略词) or versions of their founders' names, some of the companies we trust every day actually have fascinating and surprising back stories.StarbucksIt seems fitting that the most famous coffee brand in the world would take its name from one of the world's greatest works of literature. The inspiration for the name of the coffeehouse came from Herman Melville's Moby Dick. The founders' original idea was to name the company after the Captain Ahab's ship — Pequot, but they eventually decided that Pequot wasn't a great name for coffee, so they chose Ahab's first mate, Starbucks, as the name instead.NikeOriginally founded as a distributor for Japanese running shoes, the company was originally named BRS, or Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, BRS introduced its own soccer shoe, a model called Nike, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of victory. In 1978, the company officially renamed itself as Nike, Inc.The right name is essential to a company's success, and a great origin story is just as crucial as a great product. An attractive origin story is one more thing that keeps customers guessing, wondering, and buying its products.GoogleGoogle was originally called BackRub, for it searched for linksin every corner of the Web. In 1997, when the founders of the company were searching for a new name showing a huge amount of data for their rapidly improving search technology, a friend suggested the word “googol”. When a friend tried to register the new domain name, he misspelled “googol” as “google”.【小题1】What is the name of the Captain Ahab's ship?A．Moby Dick. B．Starbucks. C．Pequot. D．Herman Melville.【小题2】When did the Nike get its name eventually?A．In 1971. B．In 1978. C．In 1997. D．In 1987. 【小题3】Why did the founders of the Google change its name? A．They disliked their name.B．They wanted new customers.C．The company's original name was too long.D．The company's search technology was improving rapidly.12.

It turned outthat he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pre tty sure I madethe right decision to have you as part of our workforce (职工) before you even stepped into this office.

Scientists in Britain have managed to teach bees to pull strings (线) to get to food and then pass on what they have learned to others in their colony (群体) — showing a high level of intelligence despite their tiny brains.Researchers at Queen Mary University of London said theexperiments, often used to test the intelligence of apes (猿) andbirds, showed for the first time that some insects are up to the task, and can also pass skills on through several generations.The findings add to the evidence suggesting the ability for“culture spread”— the ability to learn and pass on knowledge and skills — may not be exclusive to humans.In the research, published in the journal PLOS Biology on Tuesday, the scientists were able to train 23 out of a group of 40 bees to pull strings with their legs and feet.The strings were attached to discs — or artificial “flowers”— containing food at their center but placed under a transparent (透明的) screen. The bees, spotting the food beneath the screen, learned to pull the “flowers” out by pulling the string with their legs and feet to be able to get to it.From another group of bees given the chance to solve the task without any training, only two of 110 were successful.Another group of bees was then allowed to observe the trainedbees pulling the strings, and 60 percent of them successfully learned the skill. Finally, trained bees were put in colonies, and thescientists found the technique spread successfully to a majority of the colony's worker bees.Lars Chittka, a Queen Mary University professor who guided the project, said the team is interested in figuring out the brain processes behind the bees' learning and teaching skills.【小题1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exclusive” in Paragraph 3?A．Ordinary. B．Limited. C．Beneficial. D．Widespread. 【小题2】What did the researchers find about bees?A．Bees learn best in insects. B．Bees are as clever as birds.C．Bees are born good learners. D．Bees can be trained to learn skills.【小题3】What may the research team focus on next?A．What else bees can do. B．Where bees learn skills. C．How bees teach others. D．How bees' brains work.【小题4】What may be the best title for the text?A．Small Bees, Great Abilities B．Bees Can Learn and Teach C．Bees Are Smarter D．Let Bees Learn四、七选五14.
