1/ Two-Parent Families Growing Scarcer /(From Reuters)

2/ The traditional U.S. household comprised of a married couple with children has become scarcer, a reflection of more women working and a view that marriage is not always desirable, researchers said on Wednesday.

3/ The most common living arrangement in the United States consists of unmarried people and no children, which made up one-third of all households in 1998, double the percentage in 1972.

4/ Meanwhile, the traditional nuclear family -- a married couple with children -- made up 26 percent of households in 1998, down from 45 percent in 1972, according to a survey conducted by the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago.

5/ Timothy Smith, director of the survey, attributed the trend to more women in the work force, driven there by economic necessity and a desire for a career, and a relaxation of social mores that frowned on cohabitation and on having children outside marriage.

6/ ``Marriage has declined as the central institution under which households are organized and children are raised,'' Smith said, noting the survey found that 62 percent of working-class adults reported being married in the 1994-98 period, down from 80 percent in the 1972-77 period.

7/ ``People marry later and divorce and cohabitate more. A growing proportion of children has been born outside of marriage. Even within marriage the changes have been profound as more and more women have entered the labor force and gender roles have become more homogenous between husbands and wives,'' Smith said.

8/ Both parents have jobs in two-thirds of families, compared to just one-third in 1972, the survey found. The percentage of households in which women worked while their husbands stayed at home rose to 4 percent in the 1990s from 2 percent in the 1970s.

9/ About half of children now live in a household with their original parents, down from nearly three-quarters of children living in such households in 1972.

III.Passage translation(50%)：

双亲家庭日趋减少/路透社消息

在美国，传统的由夫妇俩和孩子组成的家庭数量已经减少，这反映了有更多的妇女就业，同时反映了一个观点，即婚姻并非总是悦人心意。研究人员周三如是说。

在美国最常见的家庭(生活)模式包括同居夫妇和没有子女。在1998年，这种模式占家庭的三分之一。这比1972年翻了一番。

与此同时，传统的核心家庭，即一对夫妇和孩子组成的家庭，在1998年占家庭总数的26%，与1972年相比，下降了45%。设在芝加哥大学的全国民意调查中心所作的调查认为。

本次调查的负责人Timothy Smith把更多的妇女走上工作岗位的这种趋势归结到经济需求、追求成为职业女性的愿望以及对鄙视同居和有婚外子女的社会道德观念的宽松和改变。

“以组织家庭，生儿育女未主要社会习俗的婚姻走了下坡路。”Smith说，他还指出调查发现从1994年到1998年在劳动阶层的成年人结婚的占62%，而从1972年到1977年，其百分比是80%。

“人们结婚迟，离婚多，同居多。婚外所生的子女的的人口正在增加。即使在婚姻圈内，随着越来越多的女性走上工作，其变化也是深刻的。夫妇之间性别所其的作用也趋同了。”Smith说。

调查发现：在三分之二的家庭重，夫妇双方都有工作，而1972年时，这样的家庭仅占三分之一。妻子上班而丈夫闲居在家的家庭已经从70年代的2%上升到了4%。

大约有一半的孩子现在和自己的生父生母住在一起，而在1972年，这样的家庭大约有三分之二。

由于更多地希望子女能够自己对自己负责，父母对子女的态度也发生了变化。比如，更多的父母把努力工作列为他们所期望的品质特征，而非言听计从。

调查所作的对象是2,832个随机选择的成年人。
