Đoạn 1: Những thay đổi trong cấu trúc gia đình và vai trò của các thành viên gia đình

Ý 1: (Changes in family structure)

Extended families, which were prominent in previous decades, are rapidly replaced with nuclear families.

→ To be more specific, while more often than not different generations shared one roof in the past, the majority of family households in today’s society consist of parents and their offspring.

Ý 2: (Changes in family roles)

The notion that women’s role is to stay at home and take care of their families have gradually disappeared; instead, there is an increasing number of women becoming working mothers.

→ In other words, they build their own career and are less dependent on their husbands, who used to be considered the breadwinners.

Đoạn 2: Tôi cho rằng những thay đổi này mang tính tích cực

Ý 1:

As family size turns smaller, family members enjoy greater sense of freedom and privacy.

→ Understandably, each person has his or her own personality and preferences, which differ from or event contrast with others’ and cause conflicts to be almost inevitable in multi-generational families.

→ Nuclear families, therefore, are able to reduce such chances of discord.

Ý 2:

Both husbands and wives derive benefits from the transformation family roles.

→ In particular, that females share financial duties eases the burden on their male partners, who are more willing to cover household chores.

→ This in turn provides women with more opportunities to socialize with their friends and co-workers.
