A group of foreign residents married to Japanese talked about their children’s names.

Nicole Despres

Students services manager, 40 (American)

We have no intention to live outside Japan so it made sense for the kids to take my Japanese husband’s family name. However, we did want to have a Western name too, so all three of them now have both a Western and Japanese name. We agreed there would be no strange names, spelling or unusual kanji(Chinese characters in the Japanese language). All names had to be easy to say and familiar in both Japanese and English.

John McCracken

Company general manager, 27(American)

My son’s name is Aiden. In part because my wife and I met in university and as she was studying Irish history and I have some links to Scotland and Ireland, I wanted a unique Gaelic(盖尔族的)name. We settled for Aiden as we found kanji that can be used in Japan that means “legendary hero”

Paula Murakami

College women’s Association of Japan, 53(American)

My husband was very excited about choosing names, so I decided to let him choose. He wanted their first names to be Japanese and camp up with names that included the kanji character in his own name. Our boys, Hiroki and Kenta, never had any problems while living on the U.S. West Coast with Japanese names, and I think both as children and as adults, they love their names.

Jeff Ruiz

Recording engineer, 42(Mexican)

My son’s name is Lenny. My wife chose it together with me as we were looking for a name that works in both worlds — mine in Mexico, and hers in Japan — and the name Lenny is common everywhere. In Japanese we write the name in katakana as that is easy for Japanese people who seem to like names in two or three characters.

Nicole and her husband had an agreement on how to name the children.

B. Jeff will remain in Japan as his wife is not used to Mexican life.

C. The four couples have decided to live with the children in Japan forever.

D. Paula and her family would love to live on the U.S. West Coast.

2.Which of the following does the underlined word “katakana” mean?

A. A Japanese system of grammar.

B. A way of writing the Japanese language.

C. A Japanese word which means “name”.

D. A name popular with Japanese people.

3.What can we infer from the passage?

Nicole and her Japanese husband have a daughter and two sons.

B. Paula has little say in making a decision at home.

C. John’s wife is Irish and the couple have only one child.

D. Lenny is a name familiar to Japanese when written the Japanese way.

4.Which would be the best title for the passage?

Is a western name better than a Japanese name?

B. Why does your child have two names?

C. How do you choose your child’s name?

D. Do you settle differences in naming your child?

Many of the world’s countries have reached or are approaching zero population growth (ZPG) .Nearly all such lands are economically well developed.They include much of Europe(including Russia),the United States,Canada,Japan.and Australia.As the rate of natural increase(RNI)declines,two things happen.First,the population begins to decline if the loss is not balanced by immigration.Second,a country’s population ages because there are fewer births.

(RAMALLAH, West Bank) — Israel(以色列) freed 26 Palestinian(巴勒斯坦) prisoners early Wednesday, the second of four groups to be released as part of an agreement that started the current Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, which had broken down since 2008. In all, 104 prisoners are to be released in four rounds over the coming months.

In the West Bank and Gaza(加沙), the mood was overexcited as hundreds of Palestinians welcomed the prisoners back home, after many had spent more than 20 years behind bars.

Crowds of people rushed toward the 5 prisoners released to Gaza, raising them on their shoulders, waving Palestinian flags and dancing to music. Relatives held signs that read “we will never forget our heroes.” More than 2,000 people welcomed the 21 prisoners released to the West Bank, who were greeted at a ceremony by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah.

Hazem Shubair, thrown into prison in 1994 for the death of an Israeli according to the Israeli Prison Service, was over delighted upon his return to Gaza. “I am speechless,” he said. “Thanks to God. God is greater than the aggressors (meaning Israel)”.

Abbas said a final peace agreement with Israel was possible on the release of the prisoners. “There will be no final agreement without the release of all the prisoners,” he told the violent crowd.

Israel’s Supreme Court (最高法院) earlier refused an appeal that intended to cancel the prisoner release. An organization of bereaved (失去亲人的) families behind the appeal has said it fears the prisoners, all in connection to the deaths of Israelis, will return to violence once freed.

A. Because they would take part in the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.

B. Because that was part of an agreement between Israel and Palestinians.

C. Because the current Israeli-Palestinian peace talks failed.

D. Because the peace talks had broken down since 2008.

2.How many Palestinian prisoners had been released by Wednesday?

A. 21 B. 26. C. Over 26. D. 104.

A. all the Palestinian prisoners kept in Israeli prisons are set free
