托福口语干货：名字介绍的正确打开方式

　　在雅思口语的Part 1中，考官经常会问你这样几个问题：

　　What is your name?

　　Does your name have any special meaning?

　　Who gave you your name?

　　遇到这样的问题，大家是不是感觉有点无从下手呢?毕竟这里面牵扯了很多文化层面的东西。提到文化我们就会感觉我们中华文化博大精深，解释起来非常困难;而且我们自己的语言水平有限，解释之后老外也可能会不明白。

　　如果你叫姚明，那么你可以这样去介绍：

　　My name is Ming the same as the Ming Dynasty which is one of the dynasties in China’s history. In Chinese language, ming means brightness, light, sunshine and intelligence. When my grandfather gave me this name, he wished me a wise mind and promising future.

　　如果你叫欧豪，那么你可以这样回答考官：

　　My name is Hao which means an outstanding and heroic figure in Chinese. It is usually the grandparents or parents who give name to the new-born baby. And for me, my mother named me. She hoped that I could become a high-flier. As she has such a high expectation, I will do my best to make her proud.

　　如果你叫任贤齐，那么你在介绍自己的时候真的可以大做文章了：

　　My name Xianqi, which comes from China’s classic poem, given by my great grandfather who read all the famous classic works of literature. It means that a gentlemen always tries to equal and pull up to someone who does better than himself in different aspects of life. My great grandfather passed away when I was very little. I learned the meaning of my name when I was in primary school from my grandfather’s mouth. So I always think what I can learn from others to make myself a better person. It’s like a motto for me.

　　如果你叫黄晓明，那么雅思考官一定不会问你的名字是什么含义，而是会直接问下一个问题：

　　Would you spend a tremendous amount of money on a wedding?

　　当然了，如果你的名字不是自己家里人取得，而是找算命先生算的，那该如何表达呢?

　　You could say:

　　According to Chinese culture and superstition, name can affect your fortune, future and fate. When I was born, my grandmother went to a fortune-teller and ask him for a name. The fortune-teller wrote down several “good” names for me based on the theories of yin-yang(阴阳), five elements(五行), the date of birth and the eight characters of the horoscope(生辰八字). Then my parents chose the one, which is my name now, that they liked most.
