Does your name have any special meaning?

Well, I am not sure. I guess there is something special about it, but I never asked my grandpa this question. He is the person who gave me my name.

Well, I don’t know. It’s just a very common girl name. Actually, I was somewhat annoyed back in high school. People always mistook me for another girl in my class who had exactly the same name.

Why do some people change their name?

To be frank, I don’t know why but I can only assume that they are not very happy with their names given by others. They want to be in control of everything in their life.

What are the advantages of studying instead of working?

When studying, I only had to worry about my exams. But now, I have to worry about my unpaid bills, my mortgage and my children’s exams.

Do you agree that there should be a world language for everyone?

Yeah, I can’t agree more. I really feel it’s a huge waste of time to learn a second language from other country when we can work out a way for everyone to speak the same language. I think Esperanto is a great idea.

Do you agree that people will get married even later in the future? Why?

I strongly feel that people are on the way to that, but it’s difficult to explain the reason. Maybe it’s probably the increasing geographic mobility that makes we feel we have more choices when it comes to dating and marrying, so we keep thinking we can find someone better than we have.

Yes, I believe so. Personally, I think people marry later partially because of a decline in the belief of a firm and long-term commitment. What’s more, living together without getting married is no longer considered disgraceful by young people, so the question for them is “why should we get married if we can live together without a wedding?”

Do you have brothers or sisters?

No. I don’t have brothers or sisters. Actually, I am the only daughter in my family.You know, most of the people about my age are the only child in their family. As you know, this is mainly due to the birth control policy in China.

Do you prefer to live in a small family or in a large family?

Well, I don’t really care whether it’s large or small, as long as I stay with my beloved family. Just as the saying goes, “You don’t choose your

family. That’s the God’s gift to you, as you are to them.”

It’s true that people living in a smaller family enjoy more mobility and independence, but if I get to choose, I would prefer a large family with relatives caring for, loving and supporting each other, which I think is more important to me.

Do you live in a flat or a house?

Well, I live in a flat. It’s a kind of old building which has been converted into a six-floor flat house. And I live on the third floor.
