　　Why People Use Pseudonyms
　 　You can’t choose the name you are given at birth.but in many countries you can change it legally when you reach adulthood.Of course, most people never change their names 1　they feel unhappy about them.However, some people do 2 this course of action-particularly artists! What makes an artist want to change their name? Sometimes it’s for purely 3 reasons, such as the Nobel Prize winning poet from Chile，Neflali Reyes.He didn’t want his father to 4 he was writing poetry, so he changed his name to Pablo Neruda when he was a young man. 5 other times the reason may appear eccentric;take the case of the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa， 6 wrote under 75 different names.The reason?“When I use a different name，I always write in a different way,”he explained.In most cases， 7 ，the reason is for social，historical，political，or cultural reasons.Here are some of the most 8 ：
　　The person’s real name is just 9 long and difficult to remember.Let’s be honest， Madonna Louise Ciccone is not as 10 to remember as just plain “Madonna”.And short names are much easier to remember：William Bradley became Brad Pitt and Edson Arantes do Nascimento became Pele.
　　Sometimes names are changed for marketing 11 .For example，if a name sounds too“foreign”，it may be changed to something that is more recognizable in a 12 .So in the film world，Ramon Estevez adopted the name Martin Sheen.Or maybe the artist’s real name doesn’t sound very attractive-Chad Everett does 13 a lot better than Raymond Cramton.
　　Artists sometimes 14 the name of someone they admire.Robert Zimmerman changed his name to Boo Dylan because of his admiration for the Welsh poet,Dylan Thomas.
　 　Another reason may be practicality：in the past，women found it very difficult to get published.To 15 this situation they sometimes gave themselves men’s names，so the English author Mary Ann Evans became George Eliot，and she did get her books published!

　　答案與題解：
　　1.C 本句前半句提到“大多數(shù)人不會(huì)改名字”，因此可以判斷是選有讓步轉(zhuǎn)折意義的“even if，，其他的選項(xiàng)都沒有這個(gè)意思，尤其要注意even是副詞，不可以這樣用于句首引出從句。
　　2.A本句的意思是想說“有些人，尤其是藝術(shù)家們，會(huì)更改名字”。不過，本句沒有直接說change their names而是說采取行動(dòng)，那么只能用take與action進(jìn)行搭配，其他動(dòng)詞都不合適。
　　3.D根據(jù)后面
