A man go
28、es shopping because he needs something. His purpose is clear and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is in the second place for consideration(考虑 ). All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.

When I was young, every Indian had at least three names during his lifetime. His first name was given to him at birth. It described something that had happened at that time
40、. Each Indian was supposed to keep his birth name until he was old enough to earn money for himself. But his friends would always give him a name of their own. No matter what his parents called him, his childhood friends would use the name they had chosen. The Indian earned his real name when he was
41、 old enough for his first fight against the enemy, his life name depended on how he acted during this first battle. When he returned he would be given his tribal name by the chief. If he had done well, he would be given a good name. But if he had done poorly, he might be given a bad name. A man was
42、given many chances to improve his name, however. If in a later battle he was very brave in fighting against the enemy, be was given a better name. Some Indians had as many as twelve names all good and each better than the last. All names given to one Indian belonged to him for the rest of his life.
