参考译文
The structure of the family, which is a basic unit of the society, changes along with the development of the society. In China's traditional society which lasted several thousand years, the family was not only the basic unit in everyday life, but also a basic unit of production. An ideal family admired by all consisted of 5 generations, with the male members making all the important decisions. During the last hundred years, great changes have taken place in China. These changes have led to changes in the Chinese family structure. Large families began to divide into smaller extended families，with the trend pointing toward the emergence of more and more nuclear families.下载本文
