Mrs. Li is over 70 years old. She has lived in Beijing all her life. A reporter interviewed her yesterday. The following are their questions and answers. |
|
② |
Reporter: What was your life like in the past? |
|
③ |
Mrs. Li: My family lived in a tiny house. My father was a postman, and he often worked twelve hours a day outside in the winter cold or in the summer heat. My mum was a farm girl before she met my father. She was a kind and loving mother. She didn’t go out to work. There were five children in my family, and looking after us was more than a full-time job. |

④ |
The food we ate was simple. We could only eat meat once or twice a year. I wasn’t sent to school because my family couldn’t afford it. |
|
⑤ |
Reporter: How has life changed? |
|
⑥ |
Mrs. Li: Families have got smaller than they were in the past. The role of women has changed too. My daughter is really lucky. She has a good education. I’m happy that she can go to work even after getting married, but sometimes I feel lonely because she can’t come to see me often. |

Transport and travel are easier today. When I was young, I went everywhere on foot or sometimes by bike. Now you can take the bus, the underground or a plane to travel. What I don’t like is that there’s so much more traffic. It’s so difficult to cross the road. And, of course, we have television today and I really enjoy watching TV. But I hate some of the shows because they are too noisy for me. |

I have never taken cooking classes. I learned cooking from my mother because she was really interested in teaching me how to cook. The main reason for this was because when my mother got married, she didn't know how to cook anything, not even an egg. My grandmother never allowed her to stay in the kitchen when she was cooking.
My mother did not start to cook until she was twenty-five years old. In the beginning, it was very hard for her. Therefore, she had to take cooking classes to prepare(准备)our meals. After having that experience, she decided to teach me how to cook because she didn't want me to have the same experience.
I remember when I was seven years old, I started to learn cooking from my mother. Sometimes we prepared the meals that my mother already knew how make, and sometimes we prepared meals from recipes. Thanks to that experience, now I don't need any help to cook a meal. I can cook for myself or for a group of people; it doesn't matter. I will do the same with my children because I don't want them to have the same experience as my mother. If one day I am not with them, I want to be sure that they can continue their life without me.The author learned cooking from her mother because they all liked cooking.
The author’s mother learned cooking by taking cooking classes.
The author began to learn to cook when she was seven years old.

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
