漢族名字
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代麼樣的人，或者期望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一生。
【譯文】
The full name of China‘s Han ethnic group is made up of family name and given name。 One characteristic of the Chinese name is that the family name always comes first， followed by given name。 For thousands of years， the father’s family name has been passed on from generation to generation。 However， it is not uncommon now for a child to have the mother’s family name。 Generally speaking， a given name contains one or two Chinese characters， which carries the parents‘ 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 names usually go with them for a whole life。
年輕人要不要和家人住在一起
中國的家庭觀念與其文化傳統有關。和睦的大家庭曾非常令人美慕。過去四代同堂並不少見。由於這個傳統，許多年輕人婚後繼續與父母同住。今天，這個傳統正在改變。隨著住房條件的改善，越來越多年輕夫婦選擇與父母分開住。但他們之間的聯絡依然很密切。許多老年人仍然幫著照看孫輩。年輕夫婦也抽時間探望父母，特別是在春節和中秋節等重要節日。
【譯文】
The concept of family in China is related to its cultural traditions。 The large and harmonious families were once very enviable。 The four generation family used to be very common in the past。 As a result of this tradition， many young people continue to live with their parents after marriage。Today， the tradition is changing。With the improvement of housing conditions， An increasing number of young couples choose to live apart from their parents。 But the connection between them remains strong。 And many old people still have to look after their grandchildren。 Young couples also get around to visit their parents，especially during the holidays， such as the Spring Festival and Mid-autumn Festival。
家庭教育觀
中國家庭十分重視孩子的教育。許多父母認為應該努力工作，確保孩子受到良好的教育。他們不僅非常情願為孩子的教育投資，而且花很多時間督促他們學習。多數家長希望孩子能上名牌大學。由於改革開放，越來越多的家長能送孩子到國外學習或參加國際交流專案，讓其拓寬視野。透過這些努力，他們期望孩子健康成長，為國家的發展和繁榮做出貢獻。
【譯文】
Chinese families place a great premium on their children’s education。 The majority of parents hold that they should work hard to ensure that their children can get a good education。 Not only are they willing to invest in children’s education， but also they spend plenty of time urging them to learn。 Meanwhile， most of them want their children to go to prestigious universities。 Due to the reform and opening up， an increasingly number of parents can send their children to study abroad or participate the international exchange programs to broaden their horizons。 Through these efforts， they anticipate that their children can grow up healthily and make contributions to the development and prosperity of our nation。
