Naming Children
In the United States children have a family name, or a last name, and a first name. Most also have a middle name. But not all the people name children in the same way.
To name a baby, some parents begin by saying the names of the child's ancestors(祖先). The baby may smile or cry when their parents say an ancestor's name. The parents think that the ancestor is reborn(再生) in the baby. So they give the baby that name.
Some people change their names. Navaho Indians(纳瓦伙族印第安人) change their names when they want new ones. The Navahos can use the mother's last name. They may want an English name. The Navahos do not think it important to keep the same name.
In some parts of Africa, a baby's name is a secret. People there believe(认为) that the name is a part of the child. No strangers can know it.
根据短文内容,判断下列句子正(T)误(F)。
1. In the United States all the children have a middle name.
2. All the people in the world name their children in different ways.
3. Some children have their ancestor's names.
