Reading Comprehension (20 points) 51—55: ADBBC56—60: ABDCC61—65: DBACD66—70: ADCBDIV.Writing (30 points)Section A: CompositionShould Citizens Be Granted Full Right to Whatever Name They Choose?I think citizens should be granted full right to whatever name they choose as long as the name meets the requirement of the law. But naming with a Chinese characters plus an English letter, as the father of the graduate student did, is not a good idea. It is not very appropriate and normal.Normally, our names consist of three Chinese characters, which is quite different from the names in other countries. The first one is the family name. The second one is the generation name and the last one is the given name. This is the general rule for a Chinese name. In fact, nowadays, a lot of people omit the generation name. However, this is acceptable. The student had trouble in transferring her hukou because of her name. This trouble is caused by not following the rules of writing personal names.What’s more, our Chinese characters are unique without numbers that can not be the same with other languages. But the English letters are different from Chinese characters. If we use the letters, the pronunciation is a big problem, because those letters can also be found in other languages with differentpronunciations. There is no standard how they should be pronounced.Personal names are also a kind of traditional culture in China, which consist of the information of your family and the hopes of our parents. In order to protect our culture and respect the tradition, we should stick to our nation’s standard form of personal names.Section B: Note-WritingUnit 8一、词汇短语Text Arigorous [] adj. 严格的,严厉的;严酷的,严峻的【例句】He makes a rigorous study of the plant in the area. 他对该地的植物进行了慎密的研究。
