Name,by,Armstrong Williams,One summer day my father sent me to buy wire and fencing for our farm in Marion County,South Carolina.At 16,I liked,nothing better than,getting,behind the wheel,of our Chevy,pickup,but this time there was,a damper on my spirits,.My father had told me Id have to ask for,credit,at the store.,7/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,Sixteen is a prideful age,when a young man wants respect,not charity.It was 1976,and the ugly shadow of,racism,was still a fact of life.Id seen my friends ask for credit and then stand,head down,while a,patron,izing store owner questioned whether they were,good for it,.I knew black youths just like me who were watched like thieves by the store clerk each time they went into a grocery.,8/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,My family was honest.We paid our debts.But before harvest,cash was short.Would the store owner trust us?,At Davis Brothers General Store,Buck Davis stood behind the register,talking to a middle-aged farmer.Buck was a tall,weathered,man in a red hunting shirt and khaki pants,and I nodded as I passed him on my way to the hardware aisle.When I brought my purchases to the register,I said carefully,I need to put this on credit.,9/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,The farmer gave me an amused,cynical,look.But Bucks face didnt change.Sure,he said easily.Your daddy is always good for it.He turned to the other man.This here is one of James Williamss sons.,The farmer nodded in a neighborly way.I was filled with pride.James Williamss son.Those three words had opened a door to an adults respect and trust.,10/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,That day I discovered that a good name could,bestow a capital of good will of immense value,.The good name my father and mother had earned brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors.Everyone knew what to expect from a Williams:a decent person who kept his word and respected himself too much to do wrong.,11/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,We children-eight brothers and two sisters could enjoy that good name,unearned,unless and until we did something to lose it.Compromising it would hurt not only the,transgressor,but also those we loved and those who loved us.We had a,stake,in one another-and in ourselves.,A good name,and the responsibility that came with it,forced us children to be better than we otherwise might be,.,We wanted to be thought of as good people,and by acting like good people for long enough,we became pretty decent citizens.,12/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,The desire to keep the respect of a good name,propelled,me to become the first in our family to go to university.Eventually,it gave me the,initiative,to start my own successful public relations firm in Washington,D.C.,I thought about the power of a good name when I heard,General Colin Powell,say that America needs to,restore a sense of shame in its neighborhoods,.Hes right.,If pride in a good name keeps families and neighborhoods straight,a sense of shame is the reverse side of that coin.,13/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,Doing drugs,abusing,alcohol,stealing,getting a young woman pregnant out of wedlock-today,none of these behaviors is the deep embarrassment it should be.Nearly one out of three births in America is to an unwed mother.Many of these children will grow up without the security and guidance of a caring father and mother,committed to,each other.,14/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,Once the social ties and mutual obligations of the family,disintegrate,communities fall apart.Politicians may boast that crime is falling,but while the population has increased only 40 percent since 1960,violent crime in America has increased a staggering 550 percent-and weve become used to it.Teen drug abuse is rising again.No neighborhood is immune.In one North Carolina county,police arrested 73 students from 12 secondary schools for dealing drugs,some of them right in the class room.,15/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,Cultural influences such as television and movies portray mostly a world in which respect goes to the most violent.Life is considered cheap.,Meanwhile,the small signs of civility and respect that sustain civilization are vanishing from schools,stores and streets.Phrases like yes,madam,no,sir,thank you and please show self-respect and respect for others.Yet,encouraged by the pervasive,profanity,on television and in music,kids dont think twice about aggressive and vulgar language.,16/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,Many of todays kids have failed because their sense of shame has failed.They were born into families with poor reputations,not caring about keeping a good name.Today,when Im back home,I receive respect because of the good name passed on as my fathers patrimony and upheld to this day by me and my siblings.People like Buck Davis came to know of my success in the world.But it was my familys good name that,paved the way,.,17/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,Keeping a good name is rewarded not only by outsiders esteem but when those who know you best put their confidence in you.In the last months of his life Daddy,typically,worried more about my mother than about his illness.He wanted to spare her the grief of watching him die at home.So he came to me.,18/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,By then I was living and working in Washington,D.C.When Daddy arrived from South Carolina,I had him admitted to a nearby hospital.For two months,I spent every day sitting by his bedside.Both of us knew he had little time left.When he was not in too much pain to talk,he would ask about the family.He wanted to be sure he had met his responsibilities in this world.On the last day,I was there with him as he passed away.,19/67,Text:The Power of a Goof Name,My daddy had never been rich or powerful.But in his dying,he gave me a last gift:his faith that I was the man he had wanted me to be.By trusting me to care for him at the moment of his passing,he showed not only his love,but his pride and confidence in me.,After all,I was James Williamss son-a Williams of Marion,South Carolina and a Williams would do right.,20/67,Discuss the following

was the childrens responsibility in,relation to the good name of the family?,If any one of the family did something to compromise it,everyone else would be hurt.They had a stake in one another and in ourselves.It thus forced the children to be better than they otherwise might be.,27/67,Discuss the following questions.,Why did the writer say that to ask for credit at the store was a damper on his spirits?,Why did the store owner trust the writer?,What is childrens responsibility in relation to the good name of their family?,How did the family good name help the writer in life?,5.What point does the writer want to make in the discussion of the social problems in the U.S.A.?,6.What does the writer hope to prove with the description of his fathers last months?,Detailed-reading questions,28/67,1.Why did the writer say that to ask for credit at the store was a damper on his spirits?,As a young man of sixteen,he needed respect,not charity.,Asking for credit at a store is a humiliating experience like asking for favor and pity from the owner of the store.,In addition,racism made the situation worse.Black youths were watched like thieves in the store.,29/67,2Why did the

university.,Finally,the good name gave him the initiative to establish himself in the public relations business.,32/67,5.What point does the writer want to make in the discussion of the social problems in the U.S.A.?,The point the writer wants to make is that many of the social problems today result from the lack of a sense of pride in having good reputation and no sense of shame for bad reputations.Parents who dont care about keeping a good reputation have no sense of shame when they fail to set good examples for their children;nor can they provide children with the kind of security and guidance they need.Consequently,many of these children grow up without a sense of shame either.They worship violence,which is respectfully portrayed on TV and in movies.As families disintegrate,communities fall apart and crimes rise.,33/67,6.What does the writer hope to prove with the description of his fathers last months?,The writer wants to prove that keeping a good reputation is rewarded not only by outsiders esteem,but also by the trust and confidence placed in you by those who know you best.,34/67,Text structure,I (Para.1-10)The author narrates an
