2017版《普通高中课程标准》首次提出“学科核心素养”,英语学科核心素养由语言能力、文化意识、思维品质和学习能力构成,随之而来,以后的英语考试将更加坚持能力立意,突出对核心素养的考查。

下面这篇文章就是围绕“文化意识”这一学科素养展开的,介绍了传统和现代的中国家庭的价值观,他们有相同和不同之处。

主体——家庭

学科素养——文化意识

难度系数——☆☆☆

    Though China has been increasingly influenced by western culture,the traditional family structure is still highly valued and holds a vital(极其重要的) position in the Chinese culture. Both traditional and modern Chinese families have similar values and morals, and these have been a part of daily life for many centuries.

   In the traditional Chinese family,the man is responsible for providing for and protecting his family.At the same time,he is given all the decision-making power when it comes to his wife,children and other family members.He is also responsible for taking care of and paying for hia children,including their education,until they are married.In modern families,the family members consult elders about important decisions,but the father no longer has the final say in regards to his adult children`s lives.

    Traditional Chinese mothers usually stay at home to take care of the home,the children,and the rest of the family.Many modern Chinese women have careers,but still rely on their husbands or fathers for financial support at some point in their lives.

     In many Asian cultures,the elders of the family are respected for their wisdom.In both traditional and modern families,elders are taken care of and looked up to by the rest of the family.In traditional families,including those living in a rural environment,many households include four generations living together.Even in modern households,many grandparents live with their children and their grandchildren.

  Chinese culture has undergone many dramaticchanges in recent years,but the family structure and the importance of family values remain a focus.Families are still cherished and respected,whether you live in the traditional rural environment,or the modern urban city.

句型解读

In the traditional Chinese family,the man is responsible for providing for and protecting his family.

分析  这是一个简单句,句中的动词-ing形式短语providing for and protecting his family作第一个介词for的宾语。

译文   在传统的中国家庭中,男人负责供养和保护自己的家人。

In modern families,the family members consult elders about important decisions,but the father no longer has the final say in regards to his adult children`s lives.

分析  这是由but连接的两个并列句,后一个分句中的介词短语in regards to表示“关于,至于”;say在本句中是名词,意为“决定权”。

译文  在现代家庭中,家庭成员会就重要的决定向长者咨询,但父亲不再对其成年子女的生活有最终决定权。

Families are still cherished and respected,whether you live in the traditional rural environment,or the modern urban city.

分析  这是一个复合句。句中的whether you live in the traditional rural environment,or the modern urban city是让步状语从句。

译文  不管你是居住在传统的农村环境还是现代的城市,家庭仍然受到珍视和尊重。
