Long long ago, many families had three or four children. They couldn't look after everyone well, so the children must do everything by themselves. They were too poor to go to school. Some of them liked learning, but they had to go to find jobs to make money. Since they were children, they could do lots of difficult things like their parents. Sometimes they even did better than them!
But now, many families have only one child and they regard their child as a pearl. They did everything for the children. Every day, when the child gets up, their parents help him to make the room clean. They also get breakfast ready for their child. When the child is free, they can sleep or do other things, but they needn't do any housework. So many children can't cook; wash their clothes, some don't even know how to clean the floor. That’s too bad.
In the future, many families will have computers. We can work on the computer instead of going out to do everything. The children also can learn on the computers, so they don't need to move! After a long time, we'll become fatter and fatter. We won't be able to do anything by ourselves!
So, which way is good for us? We must think more.
很久以前，许多家庭有三或四个孩子。他们不能照顾好每一个人，所以孩子们必须自己做所有的事情。他们太穷上不起学。尽管有些人喜欢学习，但是他们不得不去找工作赚钱。当他们还是个孩子的时候就像他们的父母一样能做很多困难的事情。有时，他们甚至比他们父母做得更好!
但是现在，很多家庭只有一个孩子，他们把孩子视为掌上明珠。他们所做的一切都是为了孩子。每天，当孩子起床了，他们的父母帮他把房间打扫干净。还为孩子准备早餐。当孩子空闲的时候可以睡觉或做其他的事情，但不必做任何家务。很多的孩子不会做饭,不会洗自己的衣服，有些甚至不知道如何扫地。这样太可惜了。
在将来，许多家庭拥有电脑。我们可以在电脑上工作，而不是去做每一件事。孩子们也可以在电脑上学习，所以他们不需要走动!长时间以后，我们会变得越来越胖。我们做不了任何事情!
所以，什么样的方式对我们是好的?我们必须想得更多的。
