Mrs. Li is over seventy years old, and has lived in Shanghai all her life. Jenny, a reporter, asked her a few questions. Ql: Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.
My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a tiny house with a toilet we shared with our neighbours. There was no electricity. The house was lit by candles.

Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger. Today most people only have only have one child!

These days people change their jobs much more often. Q3: _______________72_________
Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. The food was always freshly cooked, with lots of fish my grandfather was a fisherman, and my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And we didn’t have television, so we played games together a lot after supper.
