　　Most readers of contemporary literature know about The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Franm. But what about The Woggle-Bug , The Marvelous Land of Oz , The TikTok Man of Oz, and The Patchwork Man of Oz? These four novels, plus nine more, were sequels（续篇）to one of the most popular children’s books of all time.
　　Baum’s life story isn’t like any of the characters in Oz at all. Instead, he was raised in a wealthy household with eight other brothers and sisters. His father was an oil man that became rich in the productive fields of Pennsylvania. Although he was frequently ill in his childhood, he never stopped daydreaming. When he was a teenager, Baum’s father bought him a cheap printing press and soon Baum was publishing a journal that even had paid advertising. As he got older, Baum produced more journals about the things he was interested in, such as stamp collecting and raising a special kind of chicken.
　　Baum had a lifelong love of the theater and would always take parts in plays. In 1880, his father built him a theater, where Baum wrote, acted, and gathered other actors for his plays. Two years later, during the production of Baum’s ironically-titled （具有讽刺意味的标题）Matches, the theater caught fire and burnt to the ground, causing most of Baum’s plays to be destroyed. Later, Baum focused on writing and hit it big with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. After that, Oz was turned into a play and Baum’s dreams had finally come true. For the rest of his life, Baum swore off writing sequels to the Oz series, but kids wrote him letters, so he continued. Baum’s career was highly distinguished and he even predicted the existence of TVs, computers, and advertising on clothing more than 100 years before they existed.
　　4. How many sequels are there to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz?
　　A. A dozen.       B. Four.            C. Nine.            D. Thirteen.
　　5. Which of the following is TRUE of Baum’s childhood?
　　A. Baum was the only child in his family.
　　B. Baum was born into a very poor family.
　　C. Baum had a wide range of interests and hobbies.
　　D. Baum began publishing cartoons in his teens.
　　6. Why does the passage refer to the play Matches as ironically-titled?
　　A. It was a strange name for a play.
　　B. It was meant to fire up readers against the government.
　　C. It was a total failure because people didn’t like it.
　　D. The play was produced when an accidental fire happened.
　　7. Which of the following would best describe Baum’s role as a writer?
　　A. Realistic.      B. Confident.        C. Imaginative.       D. Energetic.
　　C
　　A name is supposed to last a lifetime, so picking a name for your baby doesn’t seem like something you would want to base on current trends. The general trend in baby naming these days is all about originality. Classic, traditional names like the ones given to the characters of most Hollywood movies over the past 30 years are on their way out. Instead of common and familiar names, new parents want unique and even strange ones.
　　This can mean reaching a bit further into the past for names that were typical a few generations or more ago but are uncommon now. Old-fashioned names have a strangeness that many new parents judge to be cool. Need another option for your special little boy or girl? Try a foreign name because a name from another language is sure to draw attention and might give your child an attractive image within your own culture. After all, if you look beyond your own language, there are an incredible number of charming names to choose from. Another option is to use a last name as a first name. Parents who want to honor someone important or someone famous like a politician, artist, or writer might tend to give the famous surname to their child as a first name. Hence parents that lisic or sports have been choosing names like Jackson or Jordan to honor their favorite people. Celebrities（名人）have always liked to stand out from the crowd, and they are
