In the US there are about 10.4 million single-mother families. In the United Kingdom the number is around 1.9 million. Japan has about 1.1 million single moms. One out of every two children in the US will live in a single-parent family at some time before they reach age 18. In the UK 86% of single parents are white and 9% are single fathers. According to the Chinese Ministry of Civil Affairs, nearly 1.2 million Chinese couples divorced in 2002, an average 3,225 couples a day. In the world today, approximately one in every four to five families with dependent children is headed by a lone (独立的) parent, 80 percent of whom are women. Moreover, most single-mother families are the result of divorce and out-of-wedlock (婚外的) childbirth. In many Western countries, the steady increase of single-mother families has become a growing public and policy concern. Since the early 1980s the issue has seen many public and policy debates in the United States and in many of the European Union countries as well. But in China very little is known or said about this issue despite the fact that with such a high divorce rate, it must share similar single parent demographic (人口统计的) characteristics as its counterparts (对应物) in the West. The reasons for single-parent families have also changed. In the mid-twentieth century, most single-parent families came about because of the death of a spouse (配偶). In the 1970s and 1980s, most single-parent families were the result of divorce. In the early 2000s, more and more single parents have never married. Many of these single parents live with an adult partner, sometimes even the unmarried father of their child. These families are counted by the Census Bureau (人口普查统计局) as single-parent families, although two adults are present. Step 4.

Such families are called nuclear families. According to statistics, 70% of children in the US live in two-parent families, and among them, 60% are with their biological parents, which means that the parents who bring them up are also the parents who give birth to them. However, with the increase of divorce rate, nuclear families began to take different forms.1. What are nuclear families?Families where children live in the traditional two-parent families are called nuclear families.2. What are biological parents? Parents who bring children up are also the parents who give birth to them.3. What causes the change of nuclear families?The increase of divorce rate.Main ideaMost children in the West live in traditional two-parent families. However, with the increase of divorce rate, nuclear families began to take different forms.与许多其它文化背景中的孩子一样，西方的孩子也生活在传统的双亲家庭里。这种家庭被称为核心家庭。根据数据显示，在美国有70%的孩子生活在双亲家庭里，其中有60%是和自己的亲生父母生活在一起，即生育他们又抚养他们的父母。然而，随着离婚率的上升，核心家庭也开始有了不同的形式。1. Children in the West, similar to children in many other cultures, live in the traditional two-parent families.Like children in many other cultures, children in the West live in the traditional two-parent families.(be) similar to: like sb./sth. but not exactly the same 和相似e.g. My house is similar to yours. 我的房子和你的类似。 They have similar problems to ours.他们有与我们类似的问题。2. According to statistics, 70% of children in the US live in two-parent families, and among them, 60% are with their biological parents, which means that the parents who bring them up are also the parents who give birth to them.According to statistics, 70% of children in the US live in the families with parents, and among them, 60% are with their biological parents, which means that the parents who care for them are also the parents who give birth to them. bring up: (often passive) care for a child, teaching him or her how to behave, etc. 养育，培养 e.g. I was brought up by my grandma.我是由奶奶带大的。 They were brought up to respect the authority. 他们从小就被教导尊重权威。 give birth to: produce a baby or young animal 生（孩子），造成的原因 e.g. My wife gave birth to a healthy baby girl this morning. 我妻子今天早上生了个健康的女孩。 It was the study of history that gave birth to the social sciences. 对历史的研究孕育了社会科学。3. However, with the increase of divorce rate, nuclear families began to take different forms. However, there are more and more people getting divorce, and nuclear families began to have different forms.increase: 1. n. a rise in the amount, number or value of sth. 增加，增长，增强e.g. He was worried about the increase in his weight. 他担心他体重的增加。 2. v. become or make sth. greater in amount, number, value, etc.e.g. The government decided to increase teachers salaries.政府决定增加教师的工资。Foreign visitors to this country have increased five times. 这个国家的外国游客增加了五倍。 take different forms: 呈现不同的形式 e.g. Pollution is serious in this city, and takes different forms. 这个城市的污染很严重，而且呈现不同的形式。 After-class activities in this school take different forms. 这个学校的课外活动呈现不同的形式。Para.2In some families, a woman may have children with more than one man or a man may have children with more than one woman. In this case, a child who shares only one parent with another child is his or her “half-brother” or “half-sister”. For some children in one family who do not share biological parents in common at all, they are “step brother” or “step sister” to each other, when one of their biological parents marries one of the other childs biological parents. In the same way, the parent that ones biological parent marries to becomes his or her “step mother” or “step father”. 1. What is “half-brother” or “half-sister”?A child who shares only one parent with another child is his or her “half-brother” or “half-sister”.2. What is “step brother” or “step sister”?For some children in one family who do not share biological parents in common at all, they are “step brother” or “step sister” to each other.3. What is “step mother” or “step father”?The parent that ones biological parent marries to becomes ones “step mother” or “step father”. Main ideaThis paragraph introduces the concept of “half-brother” or “half-sister”, “step brother” or “step sister” and “step mother” or “step father”.在有些家庭，一个女人也许和不止一个男人生育孩子，或者一个男人和不止一个女人生育孩子。在这种情况下，一个孩子和另一个孩子只有一个共同的父亲或母亲，他们就是彼此的“同父异母的兄弟/姐妹”或“同母异父的兄弟/姐妹”。而有些孩子在同一家庭并没有任何血缘关系，当一个孩子的父亲/母亲与另一个孩子的母亲/父亲结婚时，他们就成了彼此的“继兄/继弟”或“继姐/继妹”。同样地，与这个孩子的亲生父亲/母亲结婚的人就成了这个孩子的“继母”或“继父”。4. In this case, a child who shares only one parent with another child is his or her “half-brother” or “half-sister”.In this situation, a child who has only one same parent with another child is his or her “half-brother” or “half-sister”.
