Is it a boy or a girl? ‎ John: An eight-pound boy. They named him Francis. That’s spelled with an “i” before the “s”, you know. ‎ Kate: That’s right. Frances with an “e” is a girl’s name. But they are both pronounced the same. Why did they name your nephew Francis? ‎ John: I don’t know. They considered a lot of other names, like Richard, Edward, Philip, David, and several others. ‎ Kate: What if the baby had been a girl? Didn’t they have any girl’s names in mind? ‎ John: They couldn’t agree on any. Whenever he suggested a girl’s name, she said, “I hate that name!” Some people have very strong feelings about names.‎ ‎ Kate: I think most people do. Sometimes I decided not to like someone I haven’t even met, just because I don’t like his name. ‎ John: That reminds me of something I read a few days ago. Somebody had found out that school children with certain names get low marks in school just because of their names. ‎ Kate: Their family names? ‎ John: No, their first names. That’s what the article said. ‎ ‎1. The first sentence “Has your sister’s baby arrived yet?” means _______. ‎ A. Has your sister’s baby come here yet? ‎ B.
