欧美的家庭结构与中国的差异很大，在中国我们有计划生育政策，一对夫妻只能有一个孩子，除非你是少数民族或嫁给外国人这种特殊情况。(In China we have a one -childpolicy. Per couple can only have one child, unless you are in a special category like ane thnic minority or married to a foreigner.)除了非常明显的独生子女政策之外，人们对婚姻的看法也有非常大的区别。在国外很少有家庭是三代或者四代同堂(extended family where grandparents live with their children and grandchildren)。有时候我们会觉得外国人年老之后都住在养老院而不是自己的家(end up living in care homes rather than with their families)是非常让人震惊的(shocking)事情，但这并不是西方人不如中国人孝敬(care)他们的长辈，而是由一系列复杂的经济及社会原因(complex economic and social factors)造成的。　　1.三代同堂是很自然的事情。　　2.除了可以维系传统的家庭关系之外，(三代同堂)还能够让无法工作的老人得到生活上的保障。　　3.人们觉得把老人送到疗养院去被视为把老人遗弃了。　　4.人们完全确定自己想结婚，然后才能下决定，因为这是一辈子的事情。　　5.没有人在结婚的时候会想到将来有离婚的一天，但是离婚在中国已经越来越普遍了。　　当人们变得更有钱，更加见多识广的时候，传统的价值观念也逐渐瓦解了。我想，中国的急速变化让人们把心思放在家庭以外的事情上了。　　6.网络也是造句婚姻破裂的原因，人们在网上可以碰到更多的人!　　翻译：1.
