此题问的是：姓氏中“不”包含下列那个方面：生活地点；人的性格（character）；人拥有的才干；人的职业。第五段第一句说：最早的姓氏取自地名，比如Brook(布鲁克）取自地名brook（小写意思是小溪）第六段第一句说：另一些早期姓氏取自职业名称，比如Smith（史密斯）取自smith（小写意思是铁匠）第八段说：有些人相貌与众不同，或才干突出，于是姓氏中加入了这些元素。如同一村中有两个John，头发呈灰色的那个，就叫John Gray，音译成约翰格雷，意思是“约翰灰色”另比如一个人叫John Fish，就是指那个擅长游泳的John，像鱼一样擅长游泳的John。证明C被提到。我想你不理解的是character的准确意思---这里意思是“（内在)性格”, 不是外貌特征（looks）。英汉字典上有的把character译成“特征”，指的是“性格特点，特征”英英字典例句：主要体会下边例句，都是指性格方面的，抽象的，非外貌方面的。1.N-COUNT （可数名词）The character of a person or place consists of all the qualities they have that make them distinct from other people or places. 性格; 特性例：Perhaps there is a negative side to his character that you haven't seen yet.或许他性格中有你还未看到的消极一面。2.N-COUNT（可数）You use character to say what kind of person someone is. For example, if you say that someone is a strange character, you mean they are strange. (具有某种特性的) 人例：It's that kind of courage and determination that makes him such a remarkable character.正是那种勇气和决心使他成为这样卓越的人。参考资料：

DImagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there.Sounds unusual, doesn’t it? But it’s not that unrealistic, with the development of China’s high-speed railway system. And that’s not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan—to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe.China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore.China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe.w_w w. k#s5_u.c o*mIf China’s plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could zip over from London to Beiling in under two days.The new system would still follow China’s high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes. China’s bullet train (高速客车), the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the world’s fastest average speed. It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours.Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge (轨距), maintenance of railway tracks. So, it’s important to pay attention to every detail.But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion.China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment. Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development.It’ll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among those countries.For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would also help develop China’s far west. We foresee that in the coming decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions, where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And they’ll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries.67.
