Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2.
中國漢族人的全名由姓和名組成。中文姓名的特點是,姓總是在前,名跟在其後,千百年來,
父姓一直世代相傳。然而,如今,孩子跟母親姓並不罕見。一般來說,名有一個或兩個漢字,
通常承載父母對孩子的願望。從孩子的名字可以推斷出父母希望孩子成為什麼樣的人,或者
預期他們過什麼樣的生活。父母非常重視給孩子取名,因為名字往往會伴隨孩子ー生。
The full name of China's Han ethnic group (people) is composed of family name (surname) and given name. One characteristic of the Chinese name is that the family name is always put before the given name. For thousands of years, the paternal surname (the father’s family name) has been passed down through generations. However, it is not uncommon now for a child to have the maternal surname (the mother’s family name). Generally speaking, a given name contains one or two Chinese characters, which carries the parent’s hope for the kid. Therefore, it's easy to infer from the name what kind of person the parents expect their child to be, or what kind of life to lead. Parents attach great importance to naming their kid as it will be his or her lifelong company.
