2018年5-8月雅思考试口语Part1预测：Name

　　5-8月雅思口语话题预测之Name

　　1. What’s the origin of your name?

　　你的名字的来历

　　My name is named after a famous figure who my parents really admire and they really hope that I can turn out to be exactly like her in the future. So yeah, I guess both of them agreed upon the name.

　　2 How did your parents choose your name?

　　你的父母是怎么给你取名的

　　To be honest, I'm not sure how they chose it; I've never asked them. I suppose it was just a name that they both liked, and maybe they thought it suited me.

　　3.Do you think your name is special?

　　你的名字特别么

　　Actually, the name [……] is fairly common in my country. You would be pretty surprised at how many girls here are named [….]. But, in a sense, this name is special to me because my parents gave it to me and it will stay with me for my whole life.

　　4.Do you like your name?

　　你喜欢你的名字么

　　Definitely yes! It’s a simple, yet meaningful name to me. Say if you ask me whether I would like to change my name into another one, my answer would be a big no.

　　5.What do your friends call you?

　　你的朋友是怎么称呼你的

　　It really depends. Most of my close friends prefer to call me by my nickname, “Pup”. Meanwhile, others just use my first name.

　　6.Did your family have a certain (nick) name that they called you when you were a child?

　　你有什么乳名么

　　When I was born, I had been crying for more than 2 hours. Therefore, my parents decided to call me Crocodile, which turned out to be my nickname afterwards. It was such a funny name which still makes me embarrassed when my parents call my nickname in front of my friends.

　　7. If you could change your name, would you?

　　如果你可以改名字，你愿意么

　　No, I definitely wouldn't. My name is part of my identity now, and it would feel strange to suddenly change it. I don't think my friends and family would like that either.
