Read the passage and answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题)Here are some stories and facts about nicknames that you might find cool.Why are they called “nicknames”?Hundreds of years ago, many people believed that names were a persons private property(财产) and that they shouldnt be spoken too often. Because of this, people started using other names to call each other, and in old England, these were called “ eke names”, which means “ added names”. Over the years, people began pronouncing the word “eke” wrong, and it changed to “nickname” at last.Unknown actorsIn the early days of Hollywood, many actors and actresses thought that starring in movies would hurt their stage acting careers, so they kept their names out of the credits (演员表). Movie fans, not knowing the real names of their favorite stars, began calling them by nicknames, like “the Cowboy”. Even after the actors learned that movies fans would not hurt them, the people in charge of the studios refused to say their real names out because they were afraid that fame(声誉,名望)would lead to big salaries. They were right about that one!Policemen and robbersThe FBI (联邦调查局) has a habit of giving wanted bank robbers unforgettable nicknames so that the police can be on the lookout(警戒;监视)for them. One New York robber got the nickname “the Bad Breath Robber” because his breath was so stinky ( 恶臭的). A famous robber called “Pretty Boy” because of his good looks and a more recent robber was nicknamed “the Ugly Robber”. He probably wasnt as handsome as “Pretty Boy”72.Why shouldnt a persons name be spoken too often hundreds of years ago?Because_.73. What did “eke name” mean in old England?It meant _.74.
