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).
虽然我们比过去更富有了,但是我们财产却不像过去那样名目简单而清楚。通常财产就是银行账簿上的一个数字。而且我们的财产一直在变。
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.
那一车孩子象征一种失败;但与其说是象征着婚姻的失败,不如说是象征着在今天现代化的、都市化的、科学化的、富裕的社会中旧式家庭功能的失败。
