24、The right name is important in the business world. All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you’ll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyone’s mind.

In many countries, successful trade or brand names are protected by law. This is so that other companies cannot make a product that looks like another. People might think that they are buying one product and, in fact, more than 1, 000 products and company names are registered（注册）ever hour. Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products. A good example of this is in the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations（联系）. The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.

When a U.S. company decides to sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the product’s name translates properly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China, it looked for the right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name—Coke. It took some efforts before finding the right word which sounds similar and translates as “happiness in the mouth”. Asian company names are not new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing product names. These companies can charge up to 100,000 a word for their creations. But it’s worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their growth.

【1】Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?

A．To make companies pay for naming service.

B．To help people choose the best products.

C．To present good images of the products.

D．To prevent good images from being copied.

【2】What was NOT considered when Coca-Cola tried to find a name in Chinese for its product?

A．The name should sound powerful.

B．The name should have similar pronunciation to “Coke”.

C．The name should be able to pass on the image of the product.

D．The name took lots of efforts to find.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A．Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names.

B．Creative trade names can help companies have a larger sale.

C．The government often does business with naming companies.

D．It is necessary for cars to be named after animals.

【4】What’s the best title for the passage?

A．The Business of Names

B．The History of Names

C．The Rules of Translating Names

D．The Methods of Choosing Names

25、Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I never ask people for directions, because I often receive helpless or even wrong information. And I am afraid of giving people wrong directions. So if anyone asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “sorry, I am a stranger here.”

Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I had to rush because I was almost late for an important meeting.

When I just got to my office, the secretary (秘书) showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!
