The following does it for me:

<xsl:stylesheet
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    version="1.0">

   <xsl:template match="person">
      <xsl:value-of select="name" />
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Providing you match the person element, then all child elements will only get
output if you specifically call them.
