T: Speak out, Stand out! This is Jishou University Broadcasting Station. Bubble English is on air every Friday.Hello, my dear audience! I‟m Cheri周妍婧, I‟m Carol 陈思羽.

C：So，Carol, what do you think about family?

CA: Well, I think family is a important part of my life, just as a saying goes: “FAMILY is Father And Mother I Love You”家庭就是爸爸妈妈我爱你。Every initials of this sentence compose the word FAMILY.

C: Yes! Today we will discuss the different views on family between Chinese and west.

CA: OK, before the discussion, let‟s have a break and listen a beautiful song named .s

Background music:一颗名叫恋爱的树

T: Wow, It‟s really a nice song. Now, let‟s begin our topic, family.

C: The first step to consist a family is getting married. And talking about the marriage values, there are some different views between China and west. In traditional Chinese marriage, the first thing that must be considered is the

conditions of both sides …family. And the aim of marriage is to succeed in family lineage rather than love. However, in the west, people believe in free and true love.

A marriage without love is immoral and low quality.

组成一个家庭的第一步就是结婚，说到婚姻观念，中国与西方还是有些许不同的地方。在中国的传统婚姻观念里，结婚第一步考虑的便是双方家庭的条件，目的是更好的继承血脉，传递香火而不是为了爱情。但是在西方，人们相信自由恋爱和真爱，而没有感情的婚姻是低质量而且不正常的。CA: And the family members‟ relations also have differences. Chinese people think that filial piety is the key to sustain a family. The younger generation should show it to their parents and the eldership. In the west, people believe that every one shares independence and freedom equally within families, and they respect their parents. Of course, the equality and independence is their belief.

家庭成员之间的关系也有差异，中国人认为维系整个家庭的关键是孝顺。晚辈们应该在父母和长辈面前表现自己的孝心。在西方，人们认为他们应该尊敬自己的父母，但在家庭里每个人都可以公平的享受独立和自由的权利，当然了，公平和自主本来就是他们的信念。

C：What do you think about the family education between them? As a student, I have something to say. In China, we can find the following scenes easily: parents take their children to various kinds of lessons after school. Children would be punished if they didn‟t get a good mark in examinations. For western parents, it‟s the most important to let children pay too much attention on happy learning.

在中国，我们很容易看到这个场景：父母带着小孩去各种各样的补习班。如果孩子在考试中没有得到高分就会被惩罚。对于西方的父母来说，让小孩开心的学习是最重要的。

CA: by comparison, Western family education‟s contents are substantial and scientific. However, Chinese family education‟s contents are careful and unselfish.

相比之下，西方的家庭教育主要注重点是在实质和科学方面，而中国的家庭教育宗旨过度爱护和无私。

C: It is inevitable that the differences in the emphasis of education, because we
