Painters like Claude Monet had wanted to paint how they saw the world, not how their teachers taught them i
28、t should be seen. Gauguin, and similar artists like his friend Vincent van Gogh, moved even further away from “respectable” art than the Impressionists.

29、ght differently from most members of European society. He thought that European culture was too fancy and not spontaneous. This is why he turned to the traditions of other parts of the world, like Africa, and, eventually, Tahiti. Artists like Gauguin used the word “primitive” for these cultures, but
30、 not as a negative term.

It carries the weight of a persons whole identity. A name can represent a persons ethnicity (种族) and culture, or show respect for
39、their ancestral roots. A selfgiven name may represent a persons beliefs or chosen identity.Everyone has the right to have their name pronounced correctly. It is a sign of respect for a persons individuality. “A persons name is to him or her the sweetest and most important sound in any language,” Dal
40、e Carnegie writes in his book How to Win Friends and Influence People. Behind each name is a story, and when a name is anglicized (英语化), mispronounced, or ignored, that story is dismissed.A name mispronounced for a long time can negatively impact a persons attitude toward their own identity. It can
41、create feelings of shame or embarrassment because they are made to feel like a burden. In the long term, this might cause someone to distance themselves from their roots.

44、the first time, make sure that you heard the name correctly. It doesnt take a lot to simply repeat the name back. Spell it out. Write it down. Do whatever you have to do to get the name right. Making the effort to correctly pronounce someones name is an essential part of cultural competency (文化素养).
45、Without this, we cannot expect to show respect and tolerance for our diverse community.本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了人的名字所代表的含义。一个名字不仅仅是一个单词,它承载着一个人的所有身份信息。名字可以代表一个人的种族和文化,也可以表示对祖先的尊重。一个自取的名字可能代表一个人的信仰或选择的身份。32What may a persons name tell us?AHis cultural background.BHis physical appearance.CHis favorite sound.DHis
