In pioneer days, being a good neighbour was very important.Neighbours helped one another raise a house, build a barn, and clear fields.Families depended on one another for friendship and entertainment.But today in our cities and suburbs, neighboring is not common.A family may not even know the other families that live close by.
在拓荒時代,成為好鄰居非常重要。鄰居們相互幫助養(yǎng)家糊口,修建谷倉,清理農(nóng)田。家庭之間相互依賴獲得友誼和娛樂。但如今在市區(qū)或者市郊,比鄰而居并不常見。一個家庭可能甚至不認識附近居住的其他家庭。
