Do you know where family names come from? David, an English writer, tells us something about the family names in English culture in his new book.
If a man lives near a lake, his family name may be Lake. People can call him Mr. Lake. In England, people's family names may be Wood or Hill because they live near the wood or the hill.
For example, Tailor means someone who makes clothes. Cook is a man who cooks food. And Fisher is someone who catches fish from the sea or a river to eat.
For example, my family name is Black. Some family names like Green, White, Black and Brown come from different skin colors.

Here is some cool information about the world's population.
| It took 12 years for the world's population to grow from 7 billion to 2022's 8 billion. But it will take about 15 years for the population to reach 9 billion. That's because fewer babies are born now. In 50 years，this can slow the growth of the world's population. |
| The day on which the world's population grows by one billion is important. The United Nations chooses a baby born on that day as the symbolic（象征的）baby. For example，the world's population reached 8 billion on November 15， 2022. Vinice Mabansag was born on that day and she became the symbolic 8 billionth baby. |
| More boys than girls are born around the world. There are 106 baby boys born for every 100 baby girls. There are 1. 8 billion people between the ages of 10 and 24. That's the largest number ever（有史以来）. |
