Now And Future
Long long ago, many families had three or four children. They couldn't look after everyone well, so the children must do everything by themselves. They were too poor to go to school. Some of them liked learning, but they had to go to find jobs to make money. Since they were children, they could do lots of difficult things like their parents. Sometimes they even did better than them!
But now, many families have only one child and they regard their child as a pearl. They did everything for the children. Every day, when the child gets up, their parents help him to make the room clean. They also get breakfast ready for their child. When the child is free, they can sleep or do other things, but they needn't do any housework. So many children can't cook; wash their clothes, some don't even know how to clean the floor. That's too bad.
In the future, many families will have computers. We can work on the computer instead of going out to do everything. The children also can learn on the computers, so they don't need to move! After a long time, we'll become fatter and fatter. We won't be able to do anything by ourselves!
So, which way is good for us? We must think more.

现在和未来
很久以前，许多家庭有三个或四个孩子。他们不能照顾好每个人，所以孩子们必须自己做每件事。他们穷得不能上学。他们中的一些人喜欢学习，但他们不得不去找工作赚钱。因为他们是孩子，他们可以做很多困难的事情像他们的父母。有时他们甚至比他们做得更好!
但是现在，许多家庭只有一个孩子，他们把孩子当作珍珠。他们为孩子做了一切。每天，当孩子起床时，他们的父母帮助他打扫房间。他们也为孩子准备早餐。当孩子是自由的，他们可以睡觉或做其他事情，但他们不需要做任何家务。这么多孩子不会做饭，洗衣服，有些人甚至不知道如何清洁地板。太糟了。
在未来，许多家庭将有电脑。我们可以在电脑上工作而不是出去做任何事。孩子们也可以在电脑上学习，所以他们不需要移动!过了很长时间，我们会变得越来越胖。我们自己什么也做不了!
那么，哪种方式对我们有好处呢?我们必须多思考。
