 The term given name refers to the fact that the name is given to a baby at its birth. It is different from a surname which is normally   1   among members of the child's immediate (直系的) family. In English-speaking cultures, many factors(因素) have   2   the choice of given names for children. 
   3   in some families, the first-born boy is named after his grandfather or father. In other families, certain names have been handed down to show respect for a relative they   4    . 
 For a long time,   5   has also played an important role in naming children. Names such as John and Peter from the Bible are given to boys while Patience and Sophie (wisdom) are some parents’ favorite names for girls because they symbolize Christian    6    .

Sometimes,   12   names like foreign ones may be adopted because they are less widely used and will   13   make their children unique and distinctive.
 Finally, unlike the people mentioned above, some people never take the origin, the meaning or the   14   of a name into consideration. They   15   pick a name the sound of which they like. However, even these people may look at the calendar to pick a lucky day when they make their choice.

Many years ago, I was employed as a Housing Officer, dealing with housing issues.
One morning, a teenager   16   (rush) into our office in Yorkshire, England. He was traveling here alone when he found his wallet   17   (steal). As a result, he couldn’t get back home to Scotland and he had to ask   18   help. 
Our job was helping   19   (home) people and others with housing problems, not providing money for travel. When I explained why we could not help him, he looked as if he was about to cry! He said he left home   20   telling his mother where he would go and his mother must have been worried because he hadn’t contacted   21   for the last two days. I offered him some food and asked him to wait outside   22   I finished work at 5:30 pm. And then I drove him all   23   way to Scotland.
We arrived at his house at 10:30 pm. A lady,   24   looked so anxious, answered the door. I saw tears in her eyes as she thanked me    25   (excite). She wanted to give me twenty pounds for helping her son, but I just took one Scottish pound note as a reminder of that day.
