Mrs Li is over 70 years old. She has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past. What was your life like in the past ?
My family lived in a tiny house. There were no electric lights, only candles. My father was a postman, and he often worked 12 hours a day outside in the winter cold or in the summer heat. My mother was a farm girl before she met my father. She was a kind and loving mother. She didn’t go out to work. There were five children in my family and looking after us was more than a full-time job.
I remember the family meals. The food was simple. We could only eat meat once or twice a year. I wasn’t sent to school because my family couldn’t afford it, and what’s more, because I was a girl.
How has life changed?
Families have got smaller than they were in the past. Today most people only have onechild! The role of women has changed, too. My
daughter was really lucky. She has a good education and she goes to work even after getting married. I’m happy to see she is busy-work every day, but sometimes I feel lonely because she can’t come to see me often.
Transport and travel are easier today. When I was young I went everywhere on foot or sometimes by bike. Now you can take the bus everywhere. And there is also the underground and you young people can take a plane to anywhere in the world. The only thing I don’t like though, is there is so
much traffic, it’s so difficult to cross the road.
Of course, we didn’t have a television when I was a child. I really enjoy watching television today. There are so many good programs, like the Beijing opera and old films. But some of the shows are too noisy for me.
Generally speaking, I think life is better today. We eat better and we live longer!Answer the following questions.1. What did Mrs Li’s parents do?
2. Was Mrs Li’s father’s work hard? How do
you know that?
3. Why Mrs Li’s parents didn’t send her to
school?Her father was a postman and her mother was a housewife. Yes, it was. He often worked 12 hours a day outside in the winter cold or in the summer heat.Because her family couldn’t afford it, and what’s more, because she was a girl.Language points …looking after us was more than a full-
