  英語情景口語長對話1

Katia: So, Enam, we're talking about arranged marriages, but what about the rate of divorce ofarranged marriages? Is it high?

卡蒂亞:伊納姆,我們繼續來談包含婚姻,包辦婚姻的離婚率是多少?離婚率高嗎?

Enam: Well, actually, the rate is incredibly low. Actually, it's below ten percent and it'schanging but still it's really low and the reason I think because the culture in Bangladesh ... inthat kind of culture, boys and girls are like grown up in different ways, and they don't really seeeach other that closely, and that's why when you are married with a person, you start to knowthat person after different ... opposite gender ... quite well and that helps develop andunderstanding and they both ... both of them try to understand each other — their values —and in the cultural background it's normally decided that they have to be together normallywithout an exception for the rest of their lives, so they just try to work in that way. Do youhave a higher divorce rate in your country?

伊納姆:實際上,包辦婚姻的離婚率低得令人難以置信。離婚率不到10%,雖然現在情況有所改變,不過離婚率仍處於低水平,我認爲原因是孟加拉國的文化,在孟加拉國,男孩和女孩的成長方式不同,而且男生和女生之間不會太親密,所以在結婚後,異性之間開始互相瞭解,這有助於關係的發展和互相理解,雙方努力去理解對方的價值觀,基於這樣的文化背景,雙方通常會這樣一起度過一生,基本上沒有例外,雙方會努力這樣生活。你們國家的離婚率高嗎?

Katia: Actually, unfortunately it is increasing. I really don't know the percentage but when Iwas young, if somebody of my friends parents would get a divorce that would be very shockingto hear. It was uncommon. But now, a lot of my friends actually are going though divorce ortheir parents have divorced, which it wasn't common but now it seems a little bit morecommon, so unfortunately things are changing in Mexico.

卡蒂亞:不幸的是,我們國家的離婚率在持續上升。我不知道具體的數據,不過我小時候,如果我有的父母離婚了,那會是一件令人震驚的事。是不同尋常的事。可是現在,我許多朋友都在辦離婚,他們的父母也離婚了,以前不同尋常的事情現在變得越來越普遍,不幸的是,墨西哥的情況正在逐漸改變。

Enam: Why do you think that the divorce rate is going up? What could be the reason behindthis?

伊納姆:你爲什麼認爲離婚率在上升?離婚率上升的原因是什麼?

Katia: I think it's very hard to say but I think they're various reasons. For example, womendidn't used to work. They used to stay home and take care of the house, the husband, thechildren, but now women have become more independent. They have been able to makedifferent decisions that before they didn't have to, so I think the independence of the womenhas changed things and perhaps the culture itself, the culture of marriage and divorce, it haschanged also so I think possibly those two reasons.

卡蒂亞:這很難說,我認爲原因有很多。舉例來說,以前墨西哥的女性不工作。女性一般在家裏照顧家、丈夫和孩子,而現在的女性越來越獨立。她們可以自行做決定,而以前她們不用做決定,所以我認爲女性的獨立使情況發生了變化,可能也使結婚和離婚的文化有所改變,我想這可能是兩大主要原因。

Todd: So, Kadi, you are from Estonia. Can you talk about gender roles for the new generationcompared to the older generation?

託德:卡迪,你來自愛沙尼亞。你能說說新一代人的性別角色與老一輩有什麼不同嗎?

Kadi: Yes, in Estonia, we have this kind of Western type of family, a woman doesn't have to bea housewife. She can work. She can do whatever she likes. Even maybe the tendency right nowis that women are becoming more masculine. Often it happens that women make more moneythan men do and they're the ones who bring the bread in the house. Yeah, compared toEastern society where usually women are considered as housewives. They just have to clean andcook and raise the kids, and in my country ... no ... there's not such a thing and I think italways has been like that. I'm not quite sure but.

卡迪:好,愛沙尼亞是西方式家庭,女性不必做家庭主婦。女性可以出去工作,可以做她喜歡的事情。現在的趨勢是,有越來越多的女性開始承擔男性的角色。有很多女性掙得比男性還多,承擔起養家的責任。在東方社會,女性基本上都是家庭主婦。她要打掃屋子、做飯,撫養孩子,可是在我們國家不是,我想我們國家的情況一直都是這樣。不過我不太確定。

Todd: Who does the chores like cooking and cleaning?

託德:那做飯和打掃這樣的家務活由誰做?

Kadi: Yeah, I think we all do it. We don't have that kind of rule that women only have to cleanand cook. Of course in some families, it is like that because women are better cleaning,especially, rather than men are, but yeah, men are quite good cooks.

卡迪:我們都會做。我們沒有規定說女性只能做打掃和做飯的工作。當然在有些家庭,女性的打掃工作比男性做得好,不過男性做飯也做得很好。

Todd: What do people do for childcare? Like who takes care of the children?

託德:那照顧孩子呢?誰來照顧孩子?

Kadi: Nannies. Yeah. We have nannies for working mothers, they usually like hire people towatch over the children and just they play with them and also like kindergarten, like childrenstart going to kindergarten in Estonia when they're really young, maybe from three months Ithink even, yeah, you can go to work when your child is like half-a-year old. Just go to a child there, and people are going to care about her.

卡迪:保姆。職場母親會請保姆,僱傭保姆來照顧孩子,和孩子一起玩,在愛沙尼亞,孩子們很小的時候就會被送去幼兒園,大概三個月左右的孩子就要上幼兒園了,在孩子6個月大的時候,媽媽們就可以開始上班了。媽媽們去上班,把孩子送去幼兒園,那裏有人會照顧孩子。

Todd: Is the nanny expected to cook and clean as well?

託德:保姆也要做飯和打掃嗎?

Kadi: It depends of on the contract. It depends on the contract. Yeah, if you hire a personwho that you say you're gonna pay him or her, usually her, like for cleaning, cooking, takingcare of the children, whatever, it depends on the contract.

卡迪:這取決於保姆和僱主籤的合同。這要看合同。如果僱主想僱傭負責打掃、做飯和照顧孩子的保姆,要在合同中註明。
