Life in the Past
Mrs Li is over 70 years old,and has lived in Beijing all her life.I asked her about life today and in the past.
Tell me about your parents,brothers and sisters.
My parents,my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside a restaurant.We weren't very rich,but we were happy.My sister was the eldest child and she left school when she was only 12 to help my mother at home.
Families have changed a lot since I was young.They were much bigger in those days.Most of my friends had lots of brothers and sisters.Today most people only have one child!
Did your parents have jobs?
My father went out to work.He was a factory worker,and he often worked 12 hours a day.My mum wanted to work.She was a teacher before she met my father.Looking after us was a full-time job,so she stayed at home.Today it's normal for married women to go out to work,but it was less common in the past.My father had the same job the whole of his working life.These days people change their jobs much more often.
What was life like at home?
Well,I remember the family meals,three times a day.My mother was always cooking for us.We weren't rich but we ate enough.And the food was always freshly cooked—my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today,so it was much better for us.And of course we didn't have television,so we played games together and read a lot.I helped my younger brother with his homework in the evenings.
Where did you meet your husband?
I first met him 60 years ago.I was carrying some heavy bags on my bike and I fell off!He stopped and picked up my bags.My parents liked him,and thought he came from a good family so we got married a year later.I was only 19.
These days most couples meet at work,and they just hope their parents will be happy for them if they marry.
Has Beijing changed?
Yes,there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic!I can't believe the number of cars on the streets.But I suppose it's the same everywhere.And I walk less these days and take the bus more.
And do you think life is better today?
Well,I think so.I'm healthier than I've ever been.We live longer and we eat better.One day I'll be talking to your own grandchildren!

在过去的生活
李太太70岁以上了,并且一直都在北京居住.我问她关于过去和现在的生活.
告诉我关于你的父母,兄弟姐妹.
我父母,我姐姐和三个兄弟住在一个小房子在一家餐馆.我们不是很富有,但我们很高兴.我姐姐是最大的孩子,她离开学校时只有12,在家帮助妈妈.
家庭在我年轻的时候已经改变了很多.在那些日子里,他们是多大.我的大多数朋友都有很多兄弟姐妹.今天大多数人只有一个孩子!
你的父母有工作吗?
我的父亲去工作.他是一名工厂工人,他常常一天工作12小时.我妈妈要去工作.她以前是个老师,可是她见到了我的父亲.照顾我们是她的全职工作,因此她呆在家里.今天,这是正常的已婚妇女出去工作,但在过去并不常见.我的父亲有同样的工作,他的工作是他的全部生活.现在人们总是改变他们的工作.
家庭生活是什么样的?
嗯,我记得家庭餐,一天三次.我妈妈总是为我们做饭.我们不富裕,但我们吃够了.食物总是新鲜的,妈妈不买现成的食物,当然这是对我们更好.当然,我们没有电视,所以我们在一起玩游戏,读了很多书.我帮助我的弟弟和他在晚上做作业.
你在哪里认识你的丈夫?
我60年前第一次见到他.我背着沉重的书包上我的自行车,我掉了下来!他停了下来,拿起我的包.我父母喜欢他,并认为他来自一个很好的家庭一年后我们就结婚了.我只有19岁.
现在大多数夫妇是在工作中结识的,他们只希望他们的父母为他们的婚姻感到高兴.北京有什么变化吗?
是的,有很多更多的建筑,更多的交通!我不能相信街上的车辆数.但我想这是一样的.我现在走路也少了,坐公交车多.
你认为今天的生活变得更好了吗?
怎么样?我想是吧.跟过去比.我们活得更长,吃得更好.有一天我会有自己的孙子!
太长了,大致是对的.中间可能有一些不太通顺.
