A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old and up. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until sixty.This important change in women’s life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic (经济的) position. Even a few years ago most girls left school and took a full-time job. However, when they married their school-leaving age is sixteen. Many girls stay at school after that age, and though women marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more afterwards return to fuller part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage (婚姻), with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life.26.

Every thing was all right when she was born. But when she was nineteen months old, an attack of fever left her blind and deaf for the rest of her life. She became blind so young that as she grew older, she didn’t remember being able to see; and she became deaf before she had any idea of the importance of human speech. She lived in darkness and silence.As she grew older, she, too, wanted to express her ideas and feelings. But she realized that she was cut off from others.Her parents were greatly worried.

As Helen grew up, she became an able student, passed examinations and finally took a university degree in English literature (文学). She then devoted all herself to helping the blind and the deaf.
