3. Answers may vary. Most students will say "yes". However, they may have their

My GG — that's my great-grandma — lived in Maine many years ago with her Mom, Dad and four sisters. Life was difficult then, but GG's parents tried their best to make their children happy. One Christmas they gave GG a beautiful doll with an exquisite porcelain face and long brown hair. The eyes of the doll opened and closed vividly. GG loved her doll so much that she played with her for a long time and didn't want to separate with her until it was time for Christmas dinner. GG laid the doll down gently on the hall table. But before long she heard a loud crash — GG's baby sister had pulled her doll off the table and it was smashed into pieces. Though GG's mother tried to put the doll together again, it couldn't be done. The doll was gone for ever. And so was GG's baby sister when she died of pneumonia a few years later. It was a deeply unhappy experience in GG's life.
Living in a Nursing Home: A Plan for the Future?
Thanks to medical advances and better living conditions, most of us can live longer. The issue of where we will stay when we get old has become a concern for everyone. I did a survey last week on "Are you willing to go and live in a nursing home when you grow old?" Of the ten people surveyed, seven said "yes." According to them, living in a nursing home would enable them to meet people of similar ages, get instant medical care, and have their meals and laundry taken care of. The three who don't want to stay in a nursing home think living in a nursing home would make them feel lonely and abandoned on the one hand and would have their privacy intruded upon on the other. Nonetheless, the survey does suggest that more people would be willing to live in a nursing home in the future. (147 words.)

Unit4 课文翻译及课后练习答案
Unit4 无子女家庭：违背十万年来的繁衍规律 课文翻译： 二十好几的凯茜、韦恩夫妇结婚已有五年之久，没有孩子。上次凯茜娘家有人问：“你们打算什么时候要孩子，组成一个家庭呢?”她答道：“我们已经是个家庭啦!” 凯茜与韦恩属于决定不要孩子的年轻已婚夫妇群体，其人数正在日益增长。最近一项调查显示在过去的五年中，年龄在25至29岁之间妇女不愿生养的百分比几乎翻了一番，在18至24岁的已婚妇女中几乎增至三倍。在这个似乎大胆反抗生物性和社会性的决定后面隐藏着什么原因呢? 或许最能公开坦陈心曲的无子女夫妇是《婴儿陷阱》一书的作者：埃伦，派克，其夫威廉，一位广告总经理兼全国不生养夫妇协会主席。派克夫妇认为他们和协会均无意反对生儿育女，不过是反对不管人们是否愿意和需要孩子就迫使人们传宗接代的社会压力。 “这是一种生活方式的选择，”埃伦说，“我们选择自由和自愿，清净和闲暇。这也是一个朝哪个方向付出努力的问题——在你自己的小家庭之内或在一个大的社团之中。这一代人面临有关地球生命延续的严重问题以及生命质量的问题。我们的孙辈也许将购票去观赏最后一批红杉或排队去获取氧气配给。有人抱怨在回到有五个孩子的家途中被交通堵塞困住好几个小时，但是他们不能将孩子与交通堵塞联系起来。在一个受到人口过剩一系列后果威胁的世界上，我们正在参与一项事业使膝下无子的生活模式为社会所接受并受世人尊重。太多的孩子作为一种文化强制的后果而呱呱坠地，离婚和虐待儿童的相关统计充分揭露了这一结果。” 埃伦的丈夫补充说：“每位朋友、亲戚、同事不停地给你施加压力，劝你要孩子，说什么‘发现你生活中失去的东西’。好多好多人很晚才发现，所谓他们失去的东西其实是他们完全不适合做的事情。” 埃伦还说：“从抱第一个洋娃娃开始，大到欣赏电视肥皂剧，成年后参加鸡尾酒会，无形之中，总有一种压力要你为人父母。但是让我们来看看养育失败的比率吧，或许天下父母应该视为像当医生一样的专门职业。有些人擅长此道，他们应当生养孩子；有些人一窍不通，他们应该认为他们还有其他的选择。” 专业观察家同意这一看法：很多人生养孩子没有正当的理由，有时候则完全没有理由。男人常常稀里糊涂就当上了父亲，根本就没有作出审慎的选择；对许多妇女来说，怀孕能够成为一种方式来逃避不可解决的冲突，譬如，迅速获得名分，或改进自己的不良形象，以及满足童年时代未曾得到的关注和关爱的需要。 我与许多人类行为领域的专家交谈，探讨为什么那么多年轻夫妇决定不要孩子，他们的看法也是众说纷纭。一位家庭治疗专家把不要孩子的决定描写为“对当今世界形势基本的本能反应”，暗示像动物群居本能那样的东西正在起作用，来应对人口过剩、城市拥挤、环境污染与核战争危险。群居本能促使妇女感到繁殖人口有违心愿，并指引她们去寻找在家庭生活之外实现自我价值的新方式。 不止一位精神病医生暗示，凡是不愿生育的人有都自恋癖——觉得自己心甘情愿迫不得已，为照顾别人与受人照顾这个互相对立的内心冲突自圆其说。有位精神病医生说：“这些人不能容忍照顾孩子的想法，他们没有多余的爱分享给孩子，”并补充道，“你们这是对亘古以来人类繁衍生生不息的离经叛道。”他的另一位同事插话说：“情有可原嘛，我们谁不想为我们的欠缺找理由? 且不论他
