雅思口語Part 1話題解析：Name

　　雅思口語Part 1話題解析：Name

　　1. What is your full name? How should I address you? How should I call you?

　　My full name is XXX. And my English name is Jennie. You are welcome to call me Jennie.

　　Notes: 回答姓名雖然是很簡單的問題，但是考生要通過簡單的擴展展現出自己與小學生英文水平的不同。很多人把全名fullname念成傻瓜名字foolname而貽笑大方。在這里考生沒有必要大做文章，只要講清楚姓名就可以。同時因為大多數考官不太會念中文名字，所以最好給出英文名字。

　　2. Does your name have any special meaning or significance?

　　Yes, it does have a special meaning. Literally it means to travel as far as beyond the stars.

　　Strategy:在這里可以運用一點點小的技巧。為了從眾多考生中脫穎而出，我們可以在準備充分的基礎上加上一點點新意。充分發揮想象力，比如說：我們就可以講這個姓名是算命先生給的，并且有了這個名字就可以嫁個老公：Whats more, this name was given by a fortune-teller and he said with this name I would marry a great guy.

　　Notes:其實不知道自己姓名的意思也沒關系。只要坦誠的告訴考官就可以。但是不可以簡單的說I dont know，而應該做合理的猜測以展現自己出自己流利的英文表達。但是在猜測的時候，考生可以充分的發揮想象力，沒有必要長篇大論。如：I dont really know. It is given by my grandfather. I guess it means to travel as far as beyond the starts, because he also wanted me to become a great and successful person.

　　3. Have you ever changed your name? Why or why not?

　　No, I havent. Im very happy about my Chinese name. And I guess I am never going to change it.

　　Well, yes. The previous name I had just sounds so silly. It is even close to the Chinese word for baboon. So in order to avoid continuing embarrassing myself, I changed it. And now Im happy about my current name.

　　Notes:這道題通常是為下面的題目作鋪墊。有兩種答題的方向，考生可以自己做出選擇。

　　Do Chinese people like changing their names? Why or why not?

　　In my personal opinion, generally Chinese people dont like changing their names, because to most people names are just symbols, though some people do believe names can affect the course of their life. In that case, if they are not content with who they are or what they have, they may change their names.

　　What kind of people like changing their names?

　　Well, generally Chinese people dont like changing their names. But if they do, they must believe names are important to them, more than just symbols, or somehow carries a significant meaning to them. Among them, of course, some people are just superstitious.

　　名字對大多數中國人來說確實只是一個符號。但是如果名字對一個人有特別的含義則有可能促使人改名字。

　　4. Whats their purpose in changing their names?

　　It is hard to say. But as far as I know there are two major purposes. Number one, people change their names to make their names sound better. Number two, they change their names in order to change their destiny, because they believe names can affect the course of their life, no matter it is superstitious belief or just a willful thought.

　　Well, this is a big question. As far as I know, I dont think Chinese people like to change their names often. Because most people believe names are just symbols. They dont change anything. And destiny is in their own hands to make.

　　Notes:該題目與前一道題目形成對比，前一道題目是個人的行為，本題目涉及的是群體的行為。姓名的改變通常由于以下一些原因：1、聲音不好聽或拗口2、與其他詞諧音3、迷信，認為改變姓名可以改變運道等。

　　5. In your culture, do women change their names when they get married?

　　I know it is quite common for women to take on their spouses family name in other cultures. But in my culture, that is not the casewomen often keep their maiden name even after getting married. But the children will follow the fathers surname.

　　Notes:女子出嫁后而不隨夫姓，這是中國很普遍的現象。而國外卻大多與此相反?？忌梢圆扇≈型鈱Ρ鹊姆绞交卮饐栴}。
