Question

各位你好！请教两个英语问题？

Some handicapped persons living on making name chops have been protesting that the law impairs their livelihood, making it impossible for them to earn money.
里面的making name chops是什么意思？（摘自旋元佑的《语法俱乐部》分词中的练习）
This land is the only land in the Middle East in which Jews, Muslims and Christians and people of all faiths participate and worship freely according to their beliefs。
里面的participate and worship是参教和信教的意思么？入教是不是一般是用participate？（上面的句子是VOA180516的，个人觉得翻译得可能不太恰当）

Answer 1

chops在这里的意思应该是印章。making name chops就是做名字印章，做名牌之类的。
participate多只在情感上与其他人参加某活动，所以这里可以理解为参拜这一类的。参教一般是join，这里不强调加入的意思，更强调情感上的“参与”。worship就是崇拜，翻译成信教也可以。
