( A )
King Lear had three daughters named Goneril, Regan and Cordelia. One day, he told them that he had decided to retire and spend the rest of his life in quiet peace. In order to divide his kingdom among his daughters he asked each of them how much they loved him.
First he asked his eldest daughter, Goneril. She answered at once that she loved her father more than she could say, as much as her own life;in?fact as much as much any daughter could possibly love her father. The old king was very pleased with her reply, and promised to give her one third of his land.
The second daughter, Regan, said to her father that she loved him quite as much as Goneril and even more and that all her happiness lay in loving him and nothing else. Hearing this, the king was very happy and promised to give her a third of his kingdom.
Now it came to the turn of cordelia, the youngest. She knew that her sisters had lied to their father, and did not love him. Cordelia loved her father truly and deeply, and she was his favourite child. When her father turned to her and asked what she would say, she answered that she had nothing to say. To her, words did not show real love at all. The king was surprised at her answer. He said angrily that nothing would come out of nothing and asked her to change her speech. But cordelia only said that she loved him with all the love that she could give him, no more and no less. She also told her father that she obeyed him, loved him, and honoured him, but she could not say, like Goneril and Regan,that she would always love him more than anyone else, because that was not true.
King Lear became so angry at his daughter’s words that he scolded her for being so heartless, saying that he could no longer count her a daughter of his and that he would divide the third part of his kingdom between Goneril and Regan.

How do American babies get their names when they are born?
We’d better know the formation of American names before we answer this question. A native American may have his name in two or three parts. Ronald Reagan, the 40th President of the United States, had his name in two parts. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the 32nd President, had his name in three parts. The first part is the given name, or the first name. The second part is the middle name or middle names, as Delano in Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The last part is the family name, surname or the last name, as Reagan in Ronald Reagan.
How does an American baby get his given name? Generally, when an American baby is born, the parents may pick up a name from a name book, or think of a name they like, and give it to the baby as the given name. Sometimes, the given name means something. If a girl baby’s given name is Alice, then she is hoped to be noble or cheerful, because Alice means noble and of good cheer. If the parents give their daughter Linda as the first name, then the parents hope their daughter to be pretty or beautiful, because it means that. If a boy’s given name is David, then he could be his parents’ beloved one, because David means a beloved person. But sometimes, the given name is just a given name, and it doesn’t mean anything. In another case, parents can give their baby the given name according to their hobby or desire.
Then how do American babies get their middle names? We must take people’s relationship into consideration when we answer this question. If the parents respect or hope to remember the grandparent, then they give their baby a middle name after the grandmother or
grandfather. If the parents have a very close friend, they may pick their baby a middle name after their friend. Some parents name their baby after themselves.
Some even give the baby a middle name according to a famous person. So a baby may have one or two or even more middle names if the parents wish.
A baby gets his family name after his father’s family name. If the father’s family name is Smith, then the baby’s family name will be Smith, too.
