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 it is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, the name reflectssomething about a child's culture For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected (Adapted from Reading Challenge by Casey Malarcher & Andrea Janzen) Question 3: The word "it" in paragraph refers to A culture B preference C name D tradition Question 4: What is the main idea of the passage?
