听力原文:W: I heard that your family arrived yesterday, didn't they?
M: Yes, they did.
W: That's good! Dr. Morrison, your family is now in China with you. You won't miss them, then. To talk about the family, I want to ask you some questions about American families. Er. . . Do you most Americans live in "small families" or "big families"?
M: In the United States, most people normally choose to live in "small families", but we call them "nuclear families".
W: What is the average size of a nuclear family?
M: Well, it depends on the number of children, because the nuclear family consists of a husband, a wife and children. However, if there are no children, then the husband and wife are the nuclear family. Of course, there may be only one parent due to a death, separation or divorce. In this ease, the nuclear family is the single parent and children.
W: Are there any big families in the United States?
M: Oh, you mean the extended family. No, not many. Most Americans, both the elderly and the young couples prefer to live in their own homes.
W: Since most Americans live in nuclear families rather than in extended families, the majority of the elderly do not see their children and their relatives, do they?
M: Wall, people often make such assumptions, but that is not the case according to recent sociological research.
