[真题] 中国汉族人的全名由姓和名组成。中文姓名的特点是，姓总是在前，名跟在后，千百年来，父姓一直世代相传。然而，如今,孩子跟母亲姓并不罕见。一 般来说，名有一个或两个汉字，通常承载父母对孩子的愿望。从孩子的名字可以推断出父母希望孩子成为什么样的人，或者预期他们过什么样的生活。父姆非常重视给孩子取名，因为名字往往会伴随孩子一生。

汉译英：

The full name of Han Chinese consists of the first and last name. The characteristic of Chinese names is that the family name always comes first, followed by the given name. For thousands of years, the father's family name has been passed down from generation to generation. Nowadays, however, it is not uncommon for children to take their mother's last name. Generally speaking, a given name is -- one or two Chinese characters, usually carrying a parent's wish for a child. From a child's name, parents can infer what kind of person they want their child to be, or what kind of life they expect them to lead. Parents take the naming of their children very seriously, because names tend to stick with their children for life.
