4.Although we a re much richer,possessions a re more anonymous,often little more than ma rks in a ledger,and what we own constantly changes.
Despite of the fact that people become richer nowadays than their ancestors,the things they own are not as concrete/solid as before(such as house or land).Sometimes,it is iust a number on an accounting book(sovings in the ban k):and one3 possessions also change all the time(either in form or in amount).
雖然我們比過去更富有了,但是我們財(cái)產(chǎn)卻不像過去那樣名目簡單而清楚。通常財(cái)產(chǎn)就是銀行賬簿上的一個(gè)數(shù)字。而且我們的財(cái)產(chǎn)一直在變。
5.And that bus load of children does DO more than symbolize the failu re,not of marriage,but the role of the ale—fashioned family unit in a modern,urbanized,scientific and affluent society.
What the bus—load ofchildren has revealed is not the failure ofmarfiage but that of the traditional family of its function in such口modernized present day society.
那一車孩子象征一種失;但與其說是象征著婚姻的失敗,不如說是象征著在今天現(xiàn)代化的、都市化的、科學(xué)化的、富裕的社會(huì)中舊式家庭功能的失敗。
