小学六年级英语阅读理解检测试题 (1) 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 Allan Green
Green is my family name
My parents gave me both of my other names
People don’t 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
Sometimes people ask me about my name
“When you were born, why did your parents call you Jim
” they ask
” Why did they choose that name
” The answer is they didn’t call Jim
They called me James
James was the name of my grandfather
