Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below.

Question

Hello all..,
Question 1:
I am working on a project that needs to support a database with an inherited legacy schema that you cannot change. The schema is provided below.Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below. Please provide those two XML files. Assume some hypothetical package and class names. Assume that no "fancy" stuff such as lazy initialization, optimistic locking etc is needed at this time.
CREATE TABLE [SURVEY_ANSWERS] (
[ANSWER_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
[QUESTION_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[POSITION] [int] NULL,
[TEXT] [varchar](350) NULL
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
      [QUESTION_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
      [TEXT] [varchar] (350) NULL
GO
ALTER TABLE SURVEY_ANSWERS
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_SURVEY_ANSWERS PRIMARY KEY(ANSWER_ID,QUESTION_ID);
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] ADD
       PRIMARY KEY  CLUSTERED
            [QUESTION_ID]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_ANSWERS] ADD
       FOREIGN KEY
            [QUESTION_ID]
      ) REFERENCES [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
            [QUESTION_ID]
      )Question 2:
Assume that you are working on a project developing, say, a banking application. You are the Architect and thinking that Hibernate ORM should be used for the entire access to the relational database. As usual, you have created (or auto-generated) a set of HBM XML files as well as POJOs for which you define the mappings. Assume now that a new requirement has just popped up. The system needs to be able to import new bank accounts and user information in bulk from a very large XML file at once and store it in the database. Assume the XML file contains all necessary information to populate fields in database tables. As performance is very important for this operation. Given this description, how would you approach the problem?
Please describe briefly.
