1. Read the following text. Use your dictionary if it is necessary.
A. Pay attention to the predictions of a sociology professor about the future of family life:
Family Life in the Future
The world we live in seems completely normal and what we do seems logical and correct. However, everything that is normal now was different in the past.
According to the Sociology Professor Pepper Schwartz, family, love and relationships will change drastically. In 90 years, technology will have changed our lives so much that social constructions will be different. Families will become androgynous. Household tasks will no longer be one person’s job solely based on gender. That is, men will stop being who provide to the family or the main breadwinner in less than a century. Men and women will take care of the house and work to earn money.
Schwartz says that there will be many cases of subrogation. In addition to women who can’t have children due to natural causes, women with a very good income will avoid having many pregnancies.
The options may be to have children outside of the mother’s womb. This will help eliminate the idea of women as more responsible for a child than the father.
Thanks to scientific advances there will be fewer cases of children with physical or mental defects because it will be detected and corrected before delivery. Divorce cases will still be common. The cups of these will rise and fall depending on the economy. The life expectancy will be higher, and the average person will have approximately 3 marriages during their life. The cost of living will rise a lot,that will make it almost impossible for families to have a house for themselves. Also, raising children will be very expensive. So, the state will have to provide a subsidy for education. Only very poor and very rich people will have more than two children.
