【跟世界杯一起学】Soccer mom 足球妈妈?

发布者: anro | 发布时间: 2010-7-24 21:48| 查看数: 1733| 评论数: 0|

Soccer mom refers to an American mother living in the suburbs whose time is often spent transporting her children from one athletic activity or event to another. Journalists often talk about this group and their opinions about voting and politics in the US when referring to middle-class views. Soccer mom是指热衷于足球的妈妈们吗?No!事实上,soccer mom指住在郊区,把大量时间用在接送孩子上的母亲。孩子们往往要参加一场又一场的体育活动,妈妈则在旁边观战,成了最贴心的“足球妈妈们”。如今,新闻媒体也会引用soccer mom来代表中产阶级。

Examples:

Today's soccer moms are faced with a number of challenges that soccer moms of yesterday did not have to deal with. One of the biggest challenges today is that many families are finding it necessary to have two incomes. 如今的“足球妈妈”们面临着之前妈妈们所没有碰到过的大量挑战。其中一个大问题就是很多家庭发现两份收入是很有必要的。
