题目内容
The given name will have one or two Chinese characters, though recently, people have begun to choose
some three-character given names. Chinese given names are meant to have special meanings and often
express the parents' wishes for the child, for example, Jiankang (health) and Xingfu (happiness). Some
refer to birthplace, birth time or a natural phenomenon (现象), such as Jing (Beijing), Chen (morning),
Dong (winter) and Xue (snow).
Meanings in given names also show the culture of an era (时代). In the old days, given names such as Wangcai (making the family prosperous and rich) were popular. During the 1950s and 1960s, many boys had given names such as "building the country" (Jianguo) and "celebrating National Day" (Guoqing). A
study showed that there were 290,000 Jianguos in the late 1960s. At that time, girls were often named
for flowers like Guihua and Hehua.
The reform and opening policies (改革开放政策) in the late 1970s gave more choices for given names, such as Bo (搏), and Yuhang (宇航). Parents wanted their children to learn more and have big dreams. In 2008, thousands of newborn babies were named Aoyun (Olympics) because of the Beijing Olympic
Games. The 2010 Shanghai World Expo made Shibo (世博) a popular given name. Over 6,200 newborn babies were named Shibo in the first nine months of 2010, according to Xinhua News Agency.

Dear Fang,
How are you these days? I have been in England for two months. It’s not a long time for a newcomer, and there are still a lot of things to do. Sorry for not being able to write to you soon.
London is an old but beautiful city. There are lots of places of interest to visit. Last weekend I went along Thames River with some friends from Japan, Korea and some other countries. The modern skyscrapers(摩天大楼) among the old buildings impressed(给…留下印象) us deeply. The classes started two weeks after I arrived here alone. Besides the language, I’m trying to learn about the culture as well. British people are quite different from the Chinese. Do you know the people here do not shake hands as much as we do in China? And it’s never a good habit to make noise when you eat. They think it’s impolite.
There is so much to say, but I have to stop.
I will write to you soon again.
Love,
Harry
