Question 23. A. encouraged B. forbidden C. assisted D. opposed 
Question 24. A. sound B. sens...mother's parents' names. Similarly, some 
people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as 
a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death. 
Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child's grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the 
child's name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child's name is chosen 
to influence the child's character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain 
elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character 
meaning beauty, strength, or kindness. 
In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child's 
name. In Ghana's Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child's name. But each day 
has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a 
girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua mean "wanderer" or "explorer." 
Children with these names are seen as travelers. 
No matter where the name comes from, a child's name is the first gift in life. Whether the name 
is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, it reflects something about a child's 
culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.
